Reactive Generator Research for everyone to share

[Mario]

Hi Matt,

thanks for the heads up. I think I will I check out a repair shop I know and hopefully find something to start with something on a low power scale. The question is, if we have 240V from the gen to run our induction motor made for 110V, will it be able to run the generator? We may need higher voltage.

Oh, and why do you think the flywheel is needed?

Flywheels help store energy and remove cogging. That will smooth out the waveform and allow you to start loads without slowing down to much.

Watch Luc's second tutorial he has to use REALPOWER from the mains to start the motor running. Then look at the Motor/Gens on Youtube. At some point you wanna switch from mains to GotoLuc power (IE reactive power) and you will have to disconnect the motor from mains and switch to the circiut. During that point in time your motor might wanna slow down. Big'ol flywheel helps you through that.

As far as the rest of it goes your best guess is mine...Sorry I'm working the tutorials so I can make sure I have the measurement ability then I'll progress from there. I got parts coming so till then...

Hi Luc,

great setup. If I may make a suggestion, I would put many equal sized batteries in parallel, not in series. The lower the load impedance (batteries+load in this case) the more amps will flow in your series resonant setup, and it will reflect back even less to the source.

But make sure you put a safety fuse in line until you know how many amps will flow!

thanks for sharing,
Mario

US Patent to check out along these lines...

Hi Guys,

Take a look at this patent: US 2008/0297134 Circuit for Transmitting an Amplified Resonant Power to Load... there may be some concepts we can apply here.

Best regards to all,

some findings on capacitors for reactive power

Hi Luc,

thanks for sharing such a great finding. Learning a lot over this.

I found this " A reference is to multiply the generator's REACTIVE power in KW (Kilo Watt) by 7.35 for C. Power is taken parallel over the C connection.
" on http://users.telenet.be/b0y/ .

I also found a spreadsheet on this site that calculates the capacitor requirements.

Don't know whether it helps as I am learning this module now.

please check whether this can be of any use?

Regards and Namaste

To All,

user name poynt99 (at OU topic) has identified a problem in my scope settings. I had my probes on AC coupling when they should be on DC coupling.

This changes the power numbers close to unity. I will need to re-test and re-tune to see if there is any advantages to the circuit.

Stay tuned for updates

Luc,

On the other forum I have the feeling that you may be distracted on irrelevant details. Hence, not many can follow you anymore and confirm the test results. You are not measuring jitter on Ghz clocks, and at this level any researcher can confirm your test results not using a Tektronix, but using a light bulb, LOL. Before being patronised on AC-DC issue ask yourself how many years scopes have been used on AC setting largely in power electronics (50/60Hz) and nobody noticed a major difference. You are runing for tangible effects, more heat measured with a thermometer, more light measured with fluxmeter, none of these being capable of detecting a major change on a few milliwats error.
He may be a big ego looking to moderate a topic too, I don't know.

But what I know is what I would focus:
- Is it possible to harvest the Reactive Power? How (how many methods)?
- Is only the sine wave the best suited from a generator to increase the amount of Reactive Power? romerouk in his alleged self runner showed a scope shot with a wave of sin^2. Then the current should be 2*cos. What about the Reactive Power in his setup? Are there any other wave forms with increased Reactive Power "production"?
But that is just me thinking out loud.

Regards.

Thanks for your post barbosi,

I don't mind learning what he knows since I do test circuits on the grid and understanding AC power calculations would be important I think.
I never was 100% sure how to use math power calculation, so I hope some light can come on it.

Lets see what the outcome will be.

Learning is good always, just don't let yourself astray from your goal.

As I said, a few milliwats error will not result in several degrees temperature drift.

If you only had a DVM as suggested, did you have ac-dc coupling settings on it to run your power calculation? Yet, you reached some tangible results.

There is a saying, whoever has a clock, he knows what time it is. Whoever has more clocks, he's never sure about the time.

[gotoluc]

Yes, I won't loose the goal.

I had my scope on AC coupling all this time!... I'm not the only one, TinMan and Matt (RWG) also. I'm sure there's many more that do this! just these two came forward to say they did the same.

It definitely changes the results of the math when the sine wave is not clean, which is the case with this effect.

Induction Motor to Generator

Hi Luc,

I'm not an expert, but why should it not be set on ac? Also, if I recall correctly from your tutorial when you ran the circuit from the generator the wattmeter was showing the same energy consumed (or returned) the scope was showing.
