Selfrunning Free Energy devices up to 5 KW from Tariel Kapanadze

[xenomorphlabs]

I am participating in this thread to discuss the functionality of the device with all the people competent enough to share some thoughts on how it could work.
There is always a few people that want to keep others from doing so and coerce them into taking over their opinions being the only truth.
If someone doesn´t believe that Kapanadze´s device works, then why does he bother browsing and posting in a thread called "Selfrunning Free Energy devices up to 5 KW from Tariel Kapanadze". It´s probably an urge to control others and to not let them decide freely for themselves what they choose to believe in or not in a free society...

Anyway, i am not here to flame. I want to discuss the device and ONLY the device (being the sole focus of my interest).

It's actually quite small right now, I built it to prove out a theory.   It runs on 10 volts at 30ma and drives 48 LED's from the main ring wired in parallel.   I'm sure a larger version of it could do something useful. 

It's actually stupid simple and basically a transformer tank circuit driven by a PWM.  Has the same characteristics of the Tesla hairpin and will drive a load anywhere on the ring.  The main coil is basically 3 turns through the center and 5 turns around the outer diameter about 70uh, the ring is a 1/8 inch copper tube 6 inches in diameter 20uh with a 1uf cap between the split end.   The PWM is set to drive the coil at 7khz with a 1.6 to 2.9% duty cycle.   The 555 PWM's are kind of power hungry and didn't work well with the set up and I started playing with a Velleman PWM kit and they work very well and are very efficient. 

I built a few of them before I actually got the results I was looking for, this one works well.  The LED's are wired in parallel and there is about 1.25 amps cirulating in the ring.   Also the ring is polarized, there is a pos and neg side as it works more like a DC current pump in the ring.   Very little voltage in the ring.

Hi Znel,

Very interesting setup, thanks for showing it and would you mind answering some questions please.

The pwm and the switch is ok, what I cannot see is how the 5 turn coil is connected to the circuit, do you mean that the 3 turn coil continues in the 5 turn coil and together they are the main coil of the 70uH? (that makes sense to me).

You resonate the 20uH copper ring at about the 7th harmonic with the 1uF cap, is that deliberately the 7th? The 3rd or the 5th harmonic is not yet good?
Maybe the resonant voltages would be too high at the lower harmonics?

You connected all the LEDs in parallel and they are all connected also in paralell with the 1uF capacitor, right?
Do the LEDs not ruin the resonant Q of the tank circuit? (It is true they can conduct in every second half cycles when they sense forward bias polarity, this may make the output power consideration a bit decisive for some tinkerer.)

How did you sense you were tuning for a current node? A LED brights up for both increasing its current or increasing its forward voltage (the two is interrelated).
On the ring's polarization (positive and negative) you mean the two ends of the ring to which the LEDs and the 1uF are tied to?

Sorry for the several questions I like this circuit

You have the main coil right, 3 turns through the center and 5 turns around the outer diameter to make up the 70uh.  The two leads are connected to the PWM + and - output. 

The Velleman controller is limited in frequencies peaking at around 7khz.   I'm not able to push it into other harmonics with that unit.   Nothing lower seems to work.

There are no "nodes" on the ring, it will power the LED's connected anywhere.  The 2 ends of the ring protruding from the ferrite core are polarized and the LED's will only light one way.  One side becomes pos and the other neg.    I found this rather odd as the scope shows the ring down as an AC wave.

Any load on the ring doesn't affect the resonance and doesn't change or alter the wave pattern.

@xeno: sorry, I don't want flamewars either, it's just annoying that for dozens of years every so called inventor makes bad movies or explains nothing and then vanishes again... it looks like the same will happen with Kapanadze since there was no real update for a long time. Unfortunately guesswork has never led to a successful replication.

However back to this device there is 1 thing I find interesting: so that this is supposed to be a RC it seems he can pull a lot of electrons through the ground wire to keep his resonance circuit alive. If I remember Tesla correctly he always suggested on some of his sketches to use a negative connection that goes deep into the ground... e.g. a long metal stick into the earth (2-5 meters deep? or more...). It is told, that this has not the same effect as the ground lug on today's power outlets (in our homes). This statement of Tesla seems to apply when Kapanadze buries the radiator into the ground or connects a wire of his device to a fountain pipe (which also goes deep into the ground).

Maybe offtopic ... but: A mini Kapanadze charger ?

"...Harvesting electricity from signals in the air is not new, as anyone who ever built a crystal radio running only on the radio signals it received can testify, but until now no device has been able to harvest enough electricity to make it of practical use. In most modern cities WiFi signal hotspots abound, which might make the Airenergy device a viable option, although in rural areas WiFi sources are less widespread."

From engadget:

"...As if we weren't intrigued already, they told us that they're planning on building the tech into actual cellphone batteries, so you would theoretically never need to plug in again and your device would always be topped off. Yeah, we want."
