STEORN DEMO LIVE & STREAM in Dublin, December 15th, 10 AM

I'll do that but first I'd like to check whether I'll be able to find that critical offset value for a lower frequency. I find the OU effect (or, what appears to be an OU effect) to be really sensitive to the offset value.

The main question is, of course, is this OU effect real but I think now that the output current is measured across an active resistor (by dividing that current by its resistance) we're somehow closer to an assertive answer because the inductance problem that was bothering me should be gone when measuring output current in this way.

@Omega_0,

The resistance of the RadioShack resistor is 0.47Ohms and not 47Ohms as I wrote earlier. Sorry about that. In fact, what I'm using is the measured value of 0.1192Ohms so that won't make any difference in the findings. Thanks for correcting this and the other error where I had the decimal point off by one place.

I was able to observe ostensible OU with a sine wave (skewed sine wave -- 10% duty cycle) as well. The instrument offset is -6.10 which amounts to -3.66V. The maximum is at 0.520V in square wave mode. The example here is at 80kHz. Unfortunately, I have to continue with the reduced mode in Excel 2003 because it turned out Excel 2007 cannot plot more than ~30,000 points. Anyway, here are the pics from the screen and the energy-time plot. If someone is interested I'll post the Excel data too. I should also mention that at these conditions the square and the jigsaw waves show worse OU results.

Now, with the above results we're getting closer to the affirmative OU claim because unlike the square-wave pulses with the steep fronts and higher order harmonics we see here much smoother traces. The inductance problems also seem to be fading away compared to the square-wave case.

This schematics is correct only in linear modes.
When a magnetic core is saturated as in Steorn motor, non linear resistances must be added in parallel with each L. The Steorn's measurement error is due to this simple fact.
