Solid State Orbo System

[gravityblock]

Good job and welcome to the forum Jaculat.  Please keep us updated on your progress.

Below is a prototype concept of a monopole solid state generator (monoSSgen) based around the Valstad Coil I quickly drew up. There is a possibility for a lot of different configurations with this monoSSgen, including putting it inside a pickup coil.  This concept is not complete and is provided only as a building block for a monoSSgen.  The cylinder magnet in the image may need to be replaced with a sphere.

Lee Valstad says his coil produces a "true monopole field, one with two poles both of which are the same charge", http://peswiki.com/index.php/Article:Magnetic_monopole_-_new_experiment_corroborates_Quantum_Ring_Theory#Valstad_Coil

The other pole is more than likely contained inside, so it wouldn't be a true monopole field, but a virtual monopole field should have some interesting effects.

Quick question: A permanent magnet changes the inducance of a coil, when setting up a resonant circuit - do you use the inductance measurement without the magnet (operating with magnet), or the measurement with magnet?

Having small trouble tuning my tank circuit.

Thanks!

I wonder if this is a case of parametric oscillation requiring
the disciplines of parametric resonance.

@void109,

I gave a quick rundown on how I was planning to do a similar trial and it requires the tank circuit be tuned with the magnet in the toroid coil but not near any pickup coil. The reasoning is if the load is directly related to the input then it will cause the coil to change frequency and no longer be tuned to the original frequency.

This will be tricky because it may also change frequency because of an increase in the off time cycle due the load delaying the feedback field and causing a shift in the core permeability. The signal will need to be monitored with a scope to see if the load affects the signal input during the coil on time or off time.

Well - I tuned the frequency to the L measured WITH the magnet attached.  I set up a parallel tank circuit.  Turns out when using a scope on the toroid inductor, its pretty easy to "eyeball" the right frequency watching the scope (using the initial measurement as a starting point of course).  When its resonating, its a nice and pretty sine wave, if you diverge higher or lower from optimal, its a nasty ugly thing of a signal.

Given that, the frequency I calculated prior to powering the circuit (again WITH the magnet) appears to be optimal.

I threw a pickup coil (not a great one) on my setup, and started pulling a small voltage/current, and noted that the sine wave on the scope didn't change, nor the current coming from the power supply - not exactly scientific, I was in a hurry - I'll try to get a more precise arrangement in the coming days and I'll make a video with the results.
