Re-Inventing The Wheel-Part1-Clemente_Figuera

[boguslaw]

Ok, guys

This is essential part , device I believe Figuera made first after some experiments :

"In summary: in the machine that it is requested to have a privilege, the excitatory magnets are constructed as those in the current machines, and in the number, size and desired arrangement. The core consists of a group of as many electromagnets as those of the excitatory side, and the wires in the excitatory electromagnets and core electromagnets disposed in series or parallel or as required for the excitatory current, whose aim is to convert them in powerful magnets* and to create the magnetic fields which are formed between the poles of each excitatory electromagnet and its corresponding electromagnet in the core. Both, exciter electromagnets as those in the core, which are also exciters, are terminated by expansions of iron or steel, placing face to face these expansions and disposing them in such a way that in front of a pole of a name there is placed a pole of opposite name. The core is composed of motionless electromagnets around shaft, and nor those magnets neither the exciter ones rotate. The induced circuit formed by wires coiled in a drum type configuration rotates around its axis, inside the magnetic fields, accompanied by a collector and a pulley, so that any motor may put them into movement. "

So he made a drum with output coils and rewound normal generator after wiped off some armature and rotor iron sheets. And the 30375 patent is the key patent.

*Marked is something very important....yes, ampere-turns, sadly it's not enough

Clemente too complicated?

Hi Guys,
I too have had Clemente on my mind. I have taken a break from Don Smith for the moment as working with Very high voltages is quite demanding.

I have not finished reading the whole thread! But, I think the first 20 pages or so contain that which we might like to concentrate upon for success. I admire Ufopolitics and his ability to construct a generator. But a Generator requires an external drive mechanism such as a motor Or, in the Canary Islands a Donkey with a carrot ahead as if it is walking about a stone mill, so to speak. Things are becoming complicated. Recall, Clemente is not an engineer. Likely, during his days in the forests he had time to read the writings of the day; such as Faraday, Tesla etc.

To my mind, the static driven generator superbly fits into the category of simplicity as stated by Clemente. Here in 1900, where technology is at its minimum. For Clemente, he would look for a solution to manifest his insight
in the most agreable method possible. I have not read the whole thread, but might conclude, at the present time, that there has been limited work done on the stationary generator. I am often wrong!

There are several keys that to me are prime configuration details. First is the "soft iron". Expensive to buy and in limited ingot sizes. Minimum production runs for core parts often start off in the 100kg range. To offset this immediate concern one might look for mild steel 1020 or lower. Depending on which country you are in 1020 would be the most likely option. In the USA, UK and EU, other option are available. Next, one need to get up close to someone such as a Potter. A crafts-person. Prepare the shapes required for the solenoids and have them "decarbonised" in a kiln at the phase change from 750C to 1050C. This should reduce the carbon content to the soft iron level .005% content. I believe, a main key to the success of the Clemente device is the higher permeability of the soft iron and is almost zero remanence.

The next observation are the resistors. Sure, resistors will give the appropriate reduction in voltage variation in flow as the cycle progresses. But, shown are coils. I am thinking that there is a two fold operation to the rotary switch. First is the obvious switch between solenoids. To my mind there is a second. The rotary switch is a sequentially adjustable inductor. That is, as the contact rotates we get a change in balance across the solenoids. At anyone time, the total inductance is uniform. This would correlate with Clemente's comments on Faraday and the changing magnetic fields.

I also think that when Clemente suggests using thing to hand, to construct his generator, that is exactly what happened! He had a battery, some wire, and some soft iron. Soft iron being readily available in the early 1900's.

There is one other notion in my mind which is, resonance. If Clemente's generator resonated, this would indeed explain the large amounts of energy supplied. As he used this device in his own home, and I see no reports of any commercial units, then I am thinking, what actual frequency was this generator running at? Implied, is, I suppose, the notion of a transmission line frequency such as 50 of 60 Hz. To achieve this standard would require a certain manufacturing dedication. So, I might conclude, that the frequency of the Clemente device is arbitary.

I will leave it there. I am sure that these obsevations have been covered, if so, please ignore. I shall know better when I have read the total 90 pages.

Have a good day and regards to you all

Can you build generator armature according to the computed required intensity of magnetic field and special arrangement ?

Sorry to tell you but there were NO computers back in 1908.

As for any required intensity, I can get whatever I want by using N-S fields and increasing amp-turns.

[Elcheapo]

Hello Elcheapo,

I believe we have this same conversation (about same issue) a while back...
Again, am sorry to read your zero output results.
Sorry but I can not say I hadthe same results...I have plenty of output when I was using the 16 elements driver commutator.

I have a simple question for you (which I believe I know the answer)...
You wrote You have 10 amps total...8 hi and 2 low...but what's the voltage?
if am not wrong, your answer would be 12V...but again I may be wrong.

The BEST Output I ever had with this setup was using MUCH HIGHER V and lower amperage, and I have shared this results here.

For example I have used 50V and up to 60V and like 2.5 to 3 amps max, while the low was at 1.0 amp.

For some reason this combinations worked out for me pretty well.

The problems I had with this setup was that at higher RPM'S while loading output, the primaries or inductors would "ramp down" basically amperage...so output will also drop-down.

Will love to read you re tested at higher voltage while lowering amps...and then it works

Regards to all

Hi Ufo,

Good to see you getting some good output. But what is your input?

Any OU yet?

Go a few posts back and you'll see why I won't be using that 16 pulse step wave any more.

I'll be using a much simpler system by pulsing the 2 coils in unison with a
half-wave rectifier that puts out only a positive voltage of 1 to 10 volts using only one mosfet.
And of course the 2 coils will be set to N-S to give me a much stronger magnetic field.
My 2 coils being wound with #19awg will only handle about 8 amps so for now the 12volts will be adequate.
I just bought some #22 wire to use if I want a stronger field by winding
more turns. Then a higher voltage will be required to get the required amp-turns.

So you're saying it's gonna take lots of money and expensive equipment
to build one of these?
Sorry, I have to disagree with you.

Just remember that CF said "the only extraordinary point about it is that it has taken so long to discover a simple fact".
We also have far better parts and equipment than CF ever had access to.
Just my opinion.

[Elcheapo]

Do you know where is the problem ? I KNOW.

It is in the fact , that Figuera generators are not properly investigated by scientific teams having access to all costly tools ,labs and financing.
It can be replicated in just a few months. First the 1902 device , because I believe the device from year 1908 is the same but the movement of output coil on light drum-like rotor was eliminated by a proper switching of coils simulating the movement of magnetic fields.

Hi boguslaw;

Ya, it could be any one of those things.

Well I was getting the proper 16 step pulse wave with the pulses varying
between 2 amps and 8 amps so that total current always remained at 10 amps. I got zero output.
I tried placing the induced coil perpendicular and every which way possible
but still no output. I even tried 2 coils in series.

I think this thing needs a very strongly changing magnetic field in order to work, which you won't get with that step wave.

So my answer is this "when one pole is increasing the other is decreasing by the same amount" is a bogus statement.

I would point to many places like "properly placed"
or "As seen in the drawing the current, once that has made its function, returns
to the generator where taken; "

In interview Figuera said about vibrations of ether and so on.
Columbus Egg :-)

As for commutators it's quite simple , you have to connect two brushes with a think copper bar , being a couple and then a couple of them makes set and finally you got what Benitez used

[Elcheapo]

new stuff

Hi all:

Haven't posted here for a long time, but the concept of this device is just so simple that I just had to come back for one more shot at it.

If we'd just bother to think about how lawyers write up patents for inventors we should realize that they put in clauses of false information to confuse and discourage the building of these things by would-be replicators.
Well guess what? It worked! Everybody is gone.
Hopefully I can try to get some to return again.


Maybe we just have to get into a new way of thinking.

One of the things that bothers me is "why the hell does so many
people insist on using n-n or s-s poles for the 2 coils"?
when the description clearly says to use "two poles of the opposite sign".
The large letters N and S clearly says it also.
Description also says:
"we think that this core must be formed or constituted by a group of real
electromagnets, properly built to develop the highest possible ATTRACTIVE force."
Well a n-n or s-s sure as hell is NOT an attractive force.
If that's not enough proof, then just look at the operation of a regular generator.
Is the induced coil placed between n-n poles? Of course not!
An n-n field just splatters the B field off to the sides and wastes a lot of flux.
We need a N-S field that CONCENTRATES the flux right in the middle where the "y" coil is placed.

This device is supposed to simulate the working of a regular generator but without the need for moving parts.
As the induced coil turns, one side gets induced with a positive voltage from the north pole and other side gets induced with a negative voltage from the south pole.
C.F. says to get the same effect, just place the induced coil in the middle of a strongly changing magnetic field. Can't get much simpler, can it?
So what do you think is in that patent that is screwing us all up?
I'll tell you what I think in my next post.

Definitively, the way that Figuera does that "make before break" is by having Brush contact TWO ELEMENTS in Commutator...

As it is cross-referencing what is currently discussed in OU forum - the magnetic field is always ON in regards to pickup coils. You cannot switch on/off moving physical magnet without disrupting induction. Think about how alternator works and what we are doing to make induction there. The electromagnet is passing by pickup coils and we must to do same when making magnetic field move by switching over group of inductor coils. The physical movement of magnetic field in 3D space and not rotation on coil axis is what make alternators work.
Pierre's 170W in 1600W out Looped Very impressive Build continued & moderated

Cheers!

....
At 2) and 3) a rapid current variation can be working at the same time as "the consecutively" or "the more and more" electromagnets is to be conneted step by step in a slower rate. And here the discussion of " make before brake " maybe comes in. It can maybe be important that the next coil is connected previous the disconnection of the first in a situation of Vandering Magnetic Fields?

Definitively, the way that Figuera does that "make before break" is by having Brush contact TWO ELEMENTS in Commutator...

This allows the "simulation" of MOVING FIELDS to be OVERLAPPED (Applied to the Rotary Pattern in the Patent you showed before, NOT in Figuera, since it is LINEAR)

HOWEVER, when Two Coils are energized at the same time, even for a millisecond, the Current I, suffers a "fluctuation" AFFECTING the COMMON MOVING FIELD PROJECTION (generated by a SINGLE COIL)...which in my understanding is NOT GOOD for Induction purposes.

It works though...but not the way we all wished to...

I have toggled the film frame by frame and found that it is always between 6 -12 relay LEDs lit simultaneously. . . . . 10 12 10 10 6 8 10 10 8 6 10 .... 6 8 10 10 10 8 8 8 8 8 12 10 12 8 8

It's not only a simple coil connection sequence!

Here is another impressive system similar to Figuera. Working as I think according to my A)-thoughts in post #2691 above.

170 watts in - 1600 watts out - looped - Very impressive build and video

Hello Arne, thanks for the videos and info!

Well..."The Principle" behind those whole bunch of wires plus hardware, is very simply and GENERALLY DEFINED AS:

"A MOVEMENT OF THE MASSLESS, TRANSPARENT (TO OUR EYES), WEIGHTLESS AND VIRTUAL MAGNETIC FIELD(S)"

In the case you have shown, we just replace "MOVEMENT" by a "ROTATION" in above sentence, to make it "more specific" to this application.

Something that I have been telling about, over and over and then more over and over in THIS WHOLE FORUM for a LONG TIME.

If you want to understand what he is doing...it is simply demonstrated (even though pretty rough) by his piece of wood with two rotary magnets (First Video)...and so when he inserts it within the MOTOR STATOR CORE, then we see the two small magnets spinning...I did that, done that before.

He is using Arduino Microprocessor plus a bunch of transistors, plus a bunch of relays, just to achieve the SEQUENTIAL EXCITATION OF EACH COIL IN THE MOTOR (STATOR) FRAME...


And so, he is STORING all the Energy in the 18 SUPERCAPS, in order to allow the "JUMP" or use that circuit as a TRANSFER SWITCH, which allows the SELF OPERATION of the whole machine.

To me, IMHO... just the fact that the System is able to SELF-SUSTAIN, is a GREAT ACHIEVEMENT, REGARDLESS OF OU OR NOT.

What I liked about his setup, is the AC MOTOR STATOR which have -ALREADY BUILT IN- sequenced and OVERLAPPED COILS, and obviously He is exciting each one in a continuous, sequenced order with a DC FIELD coming from his Relays Output...Relays get the spikes back and not Transistors, which I suppose only actuate the relays low voltage coils, to close circuit on the Higher Voltage end of relays.

An easier way to do this would be to have all sequenced coils with a COMMON TERMINAL, then exciting independently each other terminal in sequence...as I can see he is got a TWO POLE ROTOR from a Gen Head, so, it would be very wise to activate simultaneously TWO COILS at 180º and rotate that pattern.

Figuera does all that "rotation" with just a single brush, small motor and the commutator...way more simplified...except Figuera "spreads" sequence into separated coils and not within same armature-core like he did on his setup.

Concluding DIFFERENCES, that Figuera generates a LINEAR MOVEMENT OF FIELD(S), while this guy here maintains a ROTARY SEQUENCE OF THE FIELD(S)...of course, talking about the "EXCITING FIELD(S)"...or "Primaries" if anyone prefer.

Finally, the bulky coil he inserts within MOTOR STATOR, connected to gauge and to AC OUTLET, like I mentioned above, is from a Generator Head Rotor...like I have done as well.

It would be very interesting to see the Signal he is sending to the Stators with a Scope, at least just a couple of them...

Now, the main issue that I see here...is that he is constantly collapsing and rising NEW FIELDS which generates kind of a "SIMULATED ROTATION" but in reality it is NEVER, like is done in a Rotary Generator Head...where the SAME DC FIELD IS ALWAYS CONSTANT AND NEVER COLLAPSING, but only VARYING IN "SPACE-TIME FIELD"


My two pennies worth...
