Claimed OU circuit of Rosemary Ainslie

[MileHigh]

Here is a big present for the rude boyz in Eastasia:

It has been found that any repeating, non-sinusoidal waveform can be equated to a combination of DC voltage, sine waves, and/or cosine waves (sine waves with a 90 degree phase shift) at various amplitudes and frequencies. This is true no matter how strange or convoluted the waveform in question may be. So long as it repeats itself regularly over time, it is reducible to this series of sinusoidal waves. In particular, it has been found that square waves are mathematically equivalent to the sum of a sine wave at that same frequency, plus an infinite series of odd-multiple frequency sine waves at diminishing amplitude:

This truth about waveforms at first may seem too strange to believe. However, if a square wave is actually an infinite series of sine wave harmonics added together, it stands to reason that we should be able to prove this by adding together several sine wave harmonics to produce a close approximation of a square wave. This reasoning is not only sound, but easily demonstrated with SPICE.

Sum of 1st, 3rd, 5th, 7th and 9th harmonics approximates square wave.

The end result of adding the first five odd harmonic waveforms together (all at the proper amplitudes, of course) is a close approximation of a square wave. The point in doing this is to illustrate how we can build a square wave up from multiple sine waves at different frequencies, to prove that a pure square wave is actually equivalent to a series of sine waves. When a square wave AC voltage is applied to a circuit with reactive components (capacitors and inductors), those components react as if they were being exposed to several sine wave voltages of different frequencies, which in fact they are.

The fact that repeating, non-sinusoidal waves are equivalent to a definite series of additive DC voltage, sine waves, and/or cosine waves is a consequence of how waves work: a fundamental property of all wave-related phenomena, electrical or otherwise. The mathematical process of reducing a non-sinusoidal wave into these constituent frequencies is called Fourier analysis, the details of which are well beyond the scope of this text. However, computer algorithms have been created to perform this analysis at high speeds on real waveforms, and its application in AC power quality and signal analysis is widespread.

SPICE has the ability to sample a waveform and reduce it into its constituent sine wave harmonics by way of a Fourier Transform algorithm, outputting the frequency analysis as a table of numbers. Let's try this on a square wave, which we already know is composed of odd-harmonic sine waves:

squarewave analysis netlist
v1 1 0 pulse (-1 1 0 .1m .1m 10m 20m)   
r1 1 0 10k     
.tran 1m 40m   
.plot tran v(1,0)       
.four 50 v(1,0)
.end   

The pulse option in the netlist line describing voltage source v1 instructs SPICE to simulate a square-shaped “pulse” waveform, in this case one that is symmetrical (equal time for each half-cycle) and has a peak amplitude of 1 volt. First we'll plot the square wave to be analyzed:

Here, (Figure  above) SPICE has broken the waveform down into a spectrum of sinusoidal frequencies up to the ninth harmonic, plus a small DC voltage labelled DC component. I had to inform SPICE of the fundamental frequency (for a square wave with a 20 millisecond period, this frequency is 50 Hz), so it knew how to classify the harmonics. Note how small the figures are for all the even harmonics (2nd, 4th, 6th, 8th), and how the amplitudes of the odd harmonics diminish (1st is largest, 9th is smallest).

This same technique of “Fourier Transformation” is often used in computerized power instrumentation, sampling the AC waveform(s) and determining the harmonic content thereof. A common computer algorithm (sequence of program steps to perform a task) for this is the Fast Fourier Transform or FFT function. You need not be concerned with exactly how these computer routines work, but be aware of their existence and application.

This same mathematical technique used in SPICE to analyze the harmonic content of waves can be applied to the technical analysis of music: breaking up any particular sound into its constituent sine-wave frequencies. In fact, you may have already seen a device designed to do just that without realizing what it was! A graphic equalizer is a piece of high-fidelity stereo equipment that controls (and sometimes displays) the nature of music's harmonic content. Equipped with several knobs or slide levers, the equalizer is able to selectively attenuate (reduce) the amplitude of certain frequencies present in music, to “customize” the sound for the listener's benefit. Typically, there will be a “bar graph” display next to each control lever, displaying the amplitude of each particular frequency.

Thinking cap time!!!!!!

I forgot that the Internet now supports graphics.

Hey TK:

I hope that you are reading.  Nice little clip showing the shunt resistor waveforms.

I think that I may have pieced together enough of the clues about the oscillations.  You show how it is the 555 output itself that is flaking out.  Aaron showed a clip demonstrating how much EMI is being put out by the circuit.  Assuming that you are using Aaron's latest circuit, we have already discussed the robustness and noise immunity of the 555 circuit as being suspect because the resistor values are very high and the capacitor values are very low.

Putting this all together it looks like the threshold and trigger inputs on the 555 are picking up the EMI spikes from the Anslie circuit and this is causing false triggering in the 555 comparators.  This is just another way of saying that you are setting up the conditions for oscillation.  This is making the Set-Reset flip-flop go staccato and you get the flaky output.

Here is a block diagram of the 555 for extreme reference fun:

http://www.ecelab.com/555-block-diagram.htm

Anyway, all of this is pretty run of the mill stuff but it's still a bit surprising that the 555 is choking.  It's a result of a number of factors all put together.

Thanks for doing the rough power out vs. power in calculation.  Gotta keep swatting that pesky "battery recharging" fly.

The real challenge is that when the 555 and MOSFET start singing the harmony of the spheres together, how do you explain that there would be even more over unity heat production?  This is a claim that has been made by Rosemary and Aaron but both have not backed up the claim with any substantive arguments.

The battery voltage going up is meaningless data as you well know.  It fact, as a general statement, battery voltages are meaningless or near meaningless or provide very little information for the vast majority of tests that you see here and in Bedini clips, etc.  I am just repeating it here again to demonstrate how futile it is to say it, this important point is always ignored!  Variety is the spice of life.  lol

Aaron:

TK's vid shows negative average on the shunts:

No, you probably looked at the digital voltage display for both waveforms and thought that it was the average voltage.  TK clearly states that the digital readouts are the peak negative voltage detection, he was interested in the magnitudes of the negative spikes.

I assume that you are trying to bolster your claim that the average battery voltage showing negative on your clip from a few days ago indicated continuous battery recharging while you ran your 10-hour test.  As far as I am concerned my point that you mistakenly had the shunt resistor waveform AC coupled instead of DC coupled still stands.  You were faked out by misinterpreting the negative average voltage on your shunt resistor as battery charging when that wasn't the case.

Since I have your attention, when are you going to show some results of the battery rundown tests on the Anslie circuit vs. the control circuit?  Will you have something to show us with the DSO on the Ainsley circuit?

The Ainslie circuit should be of interest to the battery desulfator design groups, as the poor 555 to mosfet coupling can create the high frequency oscillations that they are seeking for the battery conditioning spikes. Unintentionally, Rosemary may have helped in this regard but insofar as a COP 17 heater - no chance!

Hoppy:

I just read all of the new posts.  When I read between the lines it looks to me like Aaron did his battery rundown tests but only got data that shows a very slight COP > 1.  As a result, he is actually now trying to use the DSO to record waveforms and do some processing on them, which would be great.

Good old "battery conditioning spikes."  Aaron even dragged out the old Bedini quote:

... To usefully tap the enormous locked-in energy of that stress, all one has to do is crack it sharply and tap the vacuum oscillations that result. The best way to do that is to hit something resonant that is imbedded in the vacuum, then tap the resonant stress of the ringing of the vacuum itself ...

I assume that is his way of responding to the question asking why oscillations would allegedly make the Ainsley circuit create even higher free energy gains.  The fact is that Bedini motors do not demonstrate free energy or over unity at all.  It is simply a myth, and any experimenter that is a beginner will get all excited seeing the voltage on his charging battery increase.  On this site, or on the Energetic Forum site, there is a very sobering Bedini thread where the people that have done serious extensive testing, sometimes charging the same sets of batteries back and forth 10 times, have all reported no over unity effects with Bedini motors.  Proponents will say, "But a Bedini charger can recondition an old dead battery."  Big deal, you can get some more life out of a dead battery, this has nothing to do with over unity.

If you want real insight into John Bedini, just go to his website and see that he sells a few flavours of a "CD Clarifier."  The "CD Clarifier" is supposed to make audio CDs "sound better and clearer" if you put your CD into this device before you put it into your CD player.

Ultra Clarifier "Quadri Beam"

NOTHING TREATS DIGITAL MEDIA BETTER

"Just when you thought it couldn't get any better"

After several intensive years of research, Bedini has developed the new Ultra Clarifier "Quadri Beam".  Now with four beams, nearly twice the rotation speed and improved timing processing, you can expect the very best treatment available. The new "Quadri Beam" extracts even more information, which has to date, still been masked by the discs inherent problems in how the information is retrieved.  If you are an owner of the previous Ultra Clarifier "Dual Beam" then you can expect to relive the experience again. We guarantee you will be listening to every disc you own as least one more time.

"Quadri Beam" Ultra Clarifier $400.00 US MSRP

This is a piece of audiophile electrical quackery that has no affect on the audio CD.  That's your smoking gun on John Bedini that can go all the way back to the "Bedini motor."

Aaron:

Just like a bouncing ball, which is over 1.0 cop absolutely. You put x in and that is work you get in lifting it. Each bounce after is less than the one before but you add up all the joules of work in each bounce and it is more than can be accounted for in the initial lift.

You shouldn't say this in public!  lol  You are going to really have to figure this one out one day Aaron because it creates a sinking feeling in the pit of my stomach just like when myself and .99 tried at least 20 times to explain to Rosemary how an inductor works and she still didn't get it.

It's like being a Creationist and walking around telling people that the Earth is only 6000 years old.  It's that bad.

How could the OUBB (overunity bouncing ball) eluded humanity for so long 

Thanks Aaron.
