Tesla's Fuelless Generator

[Leviathan]

Hey guys, have any of you done reading on Tesla's unipolar dynamo generator
all I can find are vague descriptions, and I was wondering if any one has tired
to replicate it. If the descriptions are correct it is a generator that can turn
itself and generate electricity, using the properties of edie currents, and apparently all you need is an aluminum disk, electromagnet or electromagnets, and a weak iron magnet. Here's about the only reference I could find, Tesla's Fuelless Generator

does anyone know more about this device, if so please share

Hi Lev,

One of the guys posted a link to a more comprehensive site.

I will look for it and post here when found.

I've read the description of the unipolar machine in this book.

http://ia700302.us.archive.org/16/it...00martiala.pdf

The machine is simply "self exciting" meaning that it can produce the current
to
supply it's electromagnets and that is how it is described in the book. It
cannot drive itself to produce an electrical output. The pulley still needs to be
driven by a steam engine or other source of mechanical power.

I think the notion of this device being self powering is derived from the self
"exciting" comment, but self exciting in that case and in many other cases
does not mean self driven or self powered.

It's a myth perpetuated by a misunderstanding and a lack of solid research.
Feel free to persue it but I suggest reading the article near the end of the
book I linked, carefully and without kidding yourself or ignoring the written
word of Tesla decide for yourself.

Cheers

Leviathan,
Your post brings to mind Bruce DePalma's N-machine. As I'm sure you're aware, there are a number of good pieces about it online at places like REx REsearch or Scribd and others.

Your query jogged my memory about an interesting thing that is shown in one of Tariel Kapanadze's videos. Do you remember Zilano's comment? (quoted below by David Fine

Here is something interesting I noticed

About 21 minutes in, the video shows a toroid transformer at the end of the shaft supporting the two rotors. It seems that when they feed power into the toroid, the shaft begins to spin. About a minute before that, there's a close-up of the shaft between the 2 rotors, which is wrapped with a fairly heavier gauge wire (maybe 16 gauge?) that looks more like steel than copper.
Not really sure what's going on; kinda looks like a double Faraday homopolar motor with disc, except there are 2 on the shaft. Does an energized toroid cause it to spin?

Here's a cryptic remark by Zilano about the Faraday disk, coils and turning...

That is an impressive Tesla book I'm surprised I've not come across it before
I'll spend time reading it for sure. Has any one heard the story about the guy
who plugged a old Tesla watt meter into his wall, but accidentily wired it
backwards, which caused it to hum and vibrate. Then the story gets hokey
when he noteses that his power bill decreased by a third and with the
meter pluged in and vibrating supposidly he was able to turn off power from
the main lines but sill run every appliance in his apartment. Sounds like a tall
tale but sill intriguing.

Still reading through this book and I found a very interesting passage,

"An experiment of special intrest shown by Mr. Tesla, is the running, by the
use of only one insulated line, of a motor operating on the principle of the
rotating magnetic field enuncaited by Mr. Tesla. A simple form of such a
motor is obtained by winding upon a laminated iron core a primary and close
to it a secondary coil, closing the ends of the latter and placing a freely
movable metal disc within the influence of the moving field. The secondary
coil may hoever, be omitted. When one of the ends of the primary coil of the
motor is connected to one of the terminals of the high frequency coil and the
other end to an insulated metal plate, which, it should be sated, is not
absolutely necessary for the success of the experiment, the disc is set in
rotation."

So tesla invented a motor that only needs one wire for power input, kinda
sounds like a stiffler device. I bet you could make a small motor with a SEC
using this principal.

Tesla's unipolar dynamo generator has a bright future.
There is a reason why he patented his modifications, all is kind of a big puzzle game....

To true, its a puzzle worth figuring out I think
