Hubbard coil

[pese]

Hubbard have also drived an car , that used 2 small antennas, and it was made with an smaller device as power generator.that will be possibly made with some smal radium or beta radiating probes ,
that -possibly- have- pumped to an big source,, if extarnal oszillations will be added) I belive that more and more, because i spend since 2002 any day  min 3 hours to see, learn, and collect informations. in this range of science. So i shown also here in OU to "learn"

@Pese,
Yes. I believe Radium was thrown in there to make it difficult and to confuse. I do not believe he used that at all. It would make an oscillator.

This has to absorbed for the use of copper.

   I introduced the radium angle as not using the radium as a fuel but using the radium em wave energy to ionize gas in and around the spark gap.  Ultraviolet light or any other scource of an ionizing frequency generator could be used to stabilize the spark gap output frequency.   (Stanley Meyers lazers come to mind)  As I understand it to fuel the Hubbard motor it would have exhausted the entire world's supply of radium at the time.  The frequency of the output gap as GK says is a wide spectrum one.  With the addition of the radium there is more control of the plazma in the gap.  Therefore tuning a coil to the oscillations occuring in the gap becomes much easier.

i think i what i explained it may sync on its own and may be you speed it up i have had osc's in excess  600 volts..   constant for a while...  from 1 charge ....   could be my meter i suspose .....  lol



but that dont explain the  moveing mangetic feild in my coil    or the  sped up or down wave on my scope ...   

ist

and i did not use anything special to do this ..... lol coil and a cap a power supply to control it once i started it i call this tuneing    speed it up and see what might come out

The specific claim made by Epiphany and others was that an "automobile distributor" was used as part of the Hubbard device.

I have not been able to find this claim in the old newspaper clippings. Perhaps a "rotating subcircuit" could be interpreted as a automobile distributor, but so could a ring counter or stepping relay.

For the sake of accuracy it would be helpful to refer only to the original texts, lest recent urban legends be transmuted into fact.

I might add that some of the photos used in the pdf's were much later (1970's) attempts at replication and are now being touted as actual Hubbard units.

Heydude, the diagram attached is the source of this speculation (which is what that was). I was trying imagine the method of stimulation Hubbard used.

IF (big if) it was an eight cylinder distributor, which normally distributes a (35 to 50kv dc) spark working from the center plug  to the 8 spark plug wire terminals around the circumference of the cap (by way of the rotor inside), then one could maybe imagine that he wired the eight plug wires common to the high voltage source and shot the spark out the center plug wire, giving him 8 sparks per distributor shaft rotation.

The claim is that there are only 4 wires to his coil setup. Two wires were presumably for the load, and two were for the stimulation and maybe feedback for the 8 coils. This one wire from the center plug wire of the distributor could have been connected to one of the 8 coils wires, with the other 8 coil wire returning to the high voltage supply return.

Hubbard had mentioned that his coil builders couldn't energize the coils, only he could.

So it seems to me that he probably delivered a constant high voltage (11.25 Kv), as very fast pulses, which he varied the timing of, by controlling the speed of the distributor shaft.

I could be totally out to lunch on this. I was seeing the variac as a potential speed control device for the motor spinning the distributor shaft.

It's also possible that the distributor rotor may have been modified to change the spark's duration or strength.

I apologize if I have misled anyone! I have no idea at all on how Hubbard did what he did. It just seems that it might be a Tesla-esque method: hit the coils with high voltage pulses at a speed that promotes self resonance (maybe)?
