  • Stored recirculated flyback magnet field.

    The big difference between my recirculating flyback test and Gotoluc's is the delayed nature of the magnetic field.

    In my test the inductor is storing the flyback in a magnetic field and the effect is cumulative. Think about what's taking place in my shorting flyback video compared to Luc's results with his high frequency input.

    • 2 contact spring switch.

      Take a look at this spring press switch from eBay for GBP 3.99.

      https://www.ebay.com/itm/Painton-Pus...wAAOSw7GRZAhJA

      Imagine this switch at the bottom half of the coil core. The upper magnet does not actually have to move as in Art Porter's solid state GAP; The tube magnet only needs to move enough so it can act as a commutator:

      Two contacts turn on and two contacts turn off in this switch when it's depressed, and vice versa. All non-magnetic copper and aluminum:

      "Press to make 2 contacts and break 2 contracts"

      This gives us the same number of terminals as the DPDT switch. Two contacts connect the coil to the storage destination when the switch is up and the power pulse is activated when the switch is depressed, while at the same time disconnecting the output terminals. This internal switch will permit us to seal the top of the coil. A ring magnet would be needed as a backing magnet at the coil base with a hole large enough to pass the switch contacts through. A very nice low cost and more highly reliable soloution.

      The spacing and power of the backing magnet allows us a simple way to control the piston throw. This innovation looks like a real winner!

      Naturally, the coil would include a recirculating BEMF shorting diode. A FWBR would allow us to simply loop back to a rechargeable battery source and run a D.C. load off the battery. This OU loop would depend on the weight in copper of the oscillator coil. Voila!

      • 1/2" ID ring

        This 1/2" ID by 2" OD diameter ring magnet from K&J magnetics would be a perfect match as a backing magnet for the 12 mm diameter spring switch, allowing ample room for the back of the switch to pass through:

        There's a picture of a 1/2" by 1" cylinder magnet below to the right for a complimentary piston:

        • Switch wiring.

          The positive wire from the battery and the positive wire from the coil would each attach to the two contact electrodes of the switch while the negative wires from the battery and the coil would connect to each other.

          The same relationship would work from the output destination with the positives connected to the switch terminals and the negatives attached.

          The shorting diodes in parallel would simply wire directly across in reverse bias with the anode of the diodes attached to the negative of the coil and the cathode to the positive.

          The operating frequency should optimally be in the two Hertz range. The switch contacts are no longer touching but at that slow a frequency the higher potential of the BEMF jumps the gap enough to recirculate the flyback.

          • Twin spring switch oscillators in tandem.

            The shorting flyback diode might create undue wear on the spring switch diode over time, so a twin might be a better alternative.

            The secondary oscillator would require a finer copper wire and capacitor in parallel, but the two spring switches could handle the output delay fine and the twin would help preserve the switch contacts. Perhaps the best approach.

            • 6 pin switch

              The "Painton Vintage Spring Switch" appears to no longer be available. Here's the "Uxcell" DPST push button spring switch I was able to purchase off Amazon: I got the last two in stock from this distributor. This purchase will require some shopping around, but should be available in quantity from the manufacturer:

              • DPST schematic.

                Here are the six terminals of the "Uxcell DPST" non-latching spring press switch pictured above:

                3 and 4 are the positive and negative coil electrodes.

                1 and 2 are the positive and negative poles of the battery, and

                5 and 6 are the positive and negative capacitor electrodes. This is the NC side.

                Naturally there's a diode between the positive pole of the capacitor and the positive capacitor terminal of the switch. A FWBR may position there to loop back to the source battery.

                • Uxell switch diameter.

                  The 25 mm or 1" diameter size of the "Uxcell Switch" is going to cause problems matching up with a Neo bore hole the same width, unless we position the switch entirely outside the backing magnet. This would not really present any significant problems simply to insert a dowel in between the switch button and the magnet cylinder so the magnet piston is in the depressed state when the cylinder end is dead center inside the coil core.

                  We can even extend the throw of the magnet piston with a second spring between the magnet cylinder and the dowel.

                  There's one has a large enough hole listed but it's ceramic:

                  • Applied magnets super store.

                    I located a source for the larger ID ring magnets. This one is 4 inches in diameter and has 400 pounds of pulling force and a 1 inch bore hole. The "Uxcell" switch will seat neatly inside: It will still require a dowel. The displacement and regauging of this very powerful backing magnet field in the large overhead solenoid coil will generate a lot of power!

                    • Two magnet oscillator.

                      It may be possible to sandwich the solenoid coil between two ring magnets in attraction and still trigger the DPST switch on one side with perhaps a monopole cylinder. This would double the output! The power pulse of the coil would displace and regauge the two fields like the original "Leon Dragone Magnet Pump", while the internal cylinder and spring pressure switch acted as the commutator. This is shaping up to be very streamlined build. Everyone who's kept abreast of this thread can see how elegant a solution it is for the many complex problems the commutator caused. Coupled with Gotoluc's BEMF high voltage wire secondary, the build starts to look like a "Tokamak Reactor".

                      • Monopole cylinder.

                        A monopole cylinder can easily be constructed by simply attaching two small cylinders from the same poles to a ferrite plug in the middle; The attraction to the ferrite over powers the repulsion, the central field cancels out and we're left with two identical poles at each end.

                        This monopole trigger cylinder would be attracted to the backing magnet at the base and repelled by the backing magnet overhead. The power pulse would only have to move the monopole cylinder far enough to work the spring pressure switch. We can run a dowel through the top disc magnet also to steady the cylinder. The output would come from the regauging of the magnet disk fields on each side. This would be identical to Art Porter's solid state GAP with the addition of the innovative internal commutator.

                        The voltage of the power pulse would regulate the throw distance and the duration of the output pulse. The flyback runs to the secondary oscillator. We accomplish all the features of Joe Newman's commutator this way.

                        • Monopole cylinder

                          Here's a schematic of the monopole cylinder: Click a second time on the attachment after it opens for for an enlargement:

                          The cylinder depresses the switch as normally closed for power pulse. When the coil is energized, the cylinder releases it's pressure and opens the output pathway. The monopole cylinder magnets can be offset in strength to increase the throw. Two dowels, both top and bottom stabilize the piston. This oscillator will self start with an on/off switch. The beauty of this oscillator is that it will work inverted as a avionic alternator.

                          • DPDT momentary press spring switch

                            Here's an open picture of a "Momentary Double Pole Double Throw Press Spring Switch"; This is the first time I've ever seen one opened up like this for view, and it's the perfect kind of switch for the GAP oscillator:

                            The first blade on the top is just a spring. The two coil wires would attach to the elongated movable blade electrodes that extend out to the right. The battery poles would connect to the fourth and sixth blades from the top so the coil is energized in the depressed position, and the storage capacitor would connect to the two and four blades in the released position:

                            This is a hand made switch available on eBay for $5.95 from Reading PA:

                            It would be fun to try and make a switch like this at home.

                            • OU Theory.

                              Definition from Wikipedia:

                              "Nonlinear metamaterials are a periodic, nonlinear, transmission medium. These are a type of negative index metamaterial where the nonlinearity is available because the microscopic electric field of the inclusions can be larger than the macroscopic electric field of the electromagnetic (EM) source".

                              Quotes from N.E. Zaev’s : “Inductive Conversion of Heat Environmental Energy to Electrical Energy” conclusion:

                              1.-“A possibility to convert environmental heat energy to electrical energy by means of non-linear magnetic material and dielectrics”

                              4.-Phenomenology of energy generation or, rather, energy transformation seems to be a non-linearity of processes in “Magnetization- Demagnetization” cycle; Their thermodynamics is in thermofluctuational exchange Of energy with spontaneous orientation of domains according to Neel’s theory.

                              Art Porter measured an over unity COP in his solid state GAP. Basically to sum it up: The electrons in the neodymium material have to do work when their orbits are destabilized to return to alignment after pulsing from the electro magnetic field. The magnetic material cools off and absorbs heat to fuel the work of the electrons, and electrical energy is generated in the quanta field and transferred to the output coil through induction.

                              • Precise PI/PO measurements.

                                I just returned from the hardware store with a DPDT toggle switch. I brought my original "Leon Dragone" magnet pump coil and powerful disc magnets by plane from California to Costa Rica for testing.

                                I am preparing a definitive Power in and Power out measurement test of the pump at this time and will upload a video of the results soon. The test will involve a simple switching by hand of the toggle switch coupled with DMM measurements.
