Towards Realizing the TPU

[wattsup]

@EM

I have done that same ring already and had the same waveform but one mounting on the other at high frequencies.

To tube or not to tube. Is that a question?????????

I found a wire called Twistie Mag Wire that can have up to 50 turns per inch and up to 10 conductors. The wires can be served with a polynylon coating so it will look like any regular single stanrd wire. I will see how much it costs and get some to make the rings. I don't think more then 20 turns per inch is required.

The question I have is why would someone like SM spend so much time and money on so many coils and wires and then say use lamp wire. Someone is screwing with our heads. Lamps wire, no way.

Someone opened a thread once discussing about twisting short lengths of wire to make capacitors in the pF range. So maybe the ring was a capacitor, the conductors were anode, the insulation was the dielectric and the top control coil was the cathode.

The puzzle here is thinking of a tube, its function and how it could be replicated in a TPU. So I will continue on the coil end and if guys like @otto can continue on the tube end, maybe there will be a point where we could meet.

Like this question. How can a transistor be used like a tube. The tube works in one direction, so does the transistor with that internal diode. The tube works by heating a cathode that pushes electrons out towards the anode. So how can this be done with a transistor. What if you put a resistor accros the collector and emitter and then applied high power. You would have one part direct current and the other part as the pulsing of the transistor. Well I do not know enough about it.

SM indicated that the FTPU control circuit was patented. OK, what in such a punny circuit could warrant someone to patent it. What would be so extraordinary in such a punny circuit that would produce such an out of the ordinary function to warrant a patent. Honestly, I don't think the question is to USE tubes, but it is to UNDERSTAND what a tube does and then experiment with a transistor to do the same thing.

So if some guys are doing coils, some are doing tubes, then maybe some could work on trying to replicate a tube with a few simple SS components.

I think the most important information, other than what he was measuring, are the distances. Multiples of about 50 miles? The equipment registered again and again at these points of distance to the storm.

Now, if Tesla was writing about things as (I perceive) he saw them, then figure that distance along with his idea of the speed of light and you have the frequency of nodes for his compression waves. Consider these waves as not going below zero, in amplitude. So, the lowest density points are ambient or zero.

Since electromagnetic compression waves do exist in waveguides (like the chamber between Earth and the Ionosphere) it is highly possible he was measuring the magnetic ripple caused by lightning strikes.

Resonance and high Q for a coil designed for this type of wave (travelling compression - not travelling wave) should not be hard to achieve. Is that a Tesla flavor non-inductive flat spiral coil in that photo?

The most essential requirement is, however, that irrespective of frequency the wave or wave-train should continue for a certain interval of time, which I have estimated to be not less than one-twelvth or probably 0.08484 of a second and which is taken in passing to and returning from the region diametrically opposite the pole over the earth's surface with a mean velocity of about four hundred and seventy-one thousand two hundred and forty kilometers per second 471,240 km/sec).

The pressence of the stationary waves may be detected in many ways. For instance, a circuit may be connected directly or inductively to the ground and to an elevated terminal and tuned to respond more effectively to the oscillations. Another way is to connect a tuned circuit to the ground at two points lying more or less in a meridian passing through the pole E or, generally stated, to any two points of a different potential.

f = c/λ
λ = c/f

50 miles = 80.4672km
1 λ = 4 * 80.4672km = 321.8688km
f @ 1 λ = 471240km/s / 321.8688km = 1.464KHz
f @ 1/2 λ = 2.9281KHz

f @ 1/4 λ = 5.8563KHz

When I read SM's remarks on tubes I got the feeling that he was using the tubes for an analogy. I think he was comparing the operation of a tube with the TPU, I thought he was trying to say that there are two things going on at once in a tube as well as in his TPU. From other posts I have made, Tesla's TPU has two things going on at once 'Transformer action and rotary action'  the transformer action, like the filament voltage and current flowing through the tube, and normal tube action, like a signal being amplified and flowing through a tube. Everybody hears and see's something different.  Where in SM's devices are the tubes located?  Sorry but I can't believe SM used tubes to drive his devices.

f @ 1/4 λ = 5.8563KHz

Nice 

And how do you collect the energy from a passing wave? You cancel it. I'm thinking effective aperture. I went down this road before and got nothing. It is still very interesting.

Hi,

There is a way to produce a rotating polarization ( helicons ) microwaves when a travelling acoustic pulse with a wavelenght equal to frequency of  electron spin precession in a applied magnetic field are in 90 degree angle with each other, this is called as magnetoacoustic effect. This is what happens in a TPU and SEG like devices.
The created microwave radiation is produced in a direction of applied magnetic field, and can be amplified by reflecting the signal back ( interference ) like MASER.
The microwave frequency is the reason that the one turn collector coil can be used.
In a case of TPU the magnetic field is first created in a direction h in a toroid coil.
The toroid coil is made of elastic composite material like a urethane foam.  This elastic composite material consists of magnetostrictive and paramagnetic powder like nickel and aluminium.
We can see this same phenomena with a SEG, the difference with a TPU is that the SEG uses deformation of material to produce an acoustic wave to travel around the stator, and uses permanent composite magnets for electron spin precession. Radial E-field must also be applied, with SEG this happens when the magnetic fields repel, in a case of TPU you must add a HV radial E-field.

Stefan, can you add xlsm to allowed attach file types?
I have a xlsm file, that you can play with to see the needed acoustic frequencies and applied magnetic field strenght for given TPU dimensions.
