It appears to work backwards from what the Russian paper suggests. *sigh*
The current decreases when we add inductance, and the current increases when we remove inductance. This is completely consistent with the swing example. As you lean back and raise your legs during increasing velocity (current) you are shortening the pendulum arm (decreasing inductance). To shorten the pendulum arm, you are counteracting centrifugal force (loading the motor shaft).
Our system self-limits very nicely at about 1/2 HP...which happens to be the size of the motor.
There may be some kind of relativistic effect of changing inductance faster than the current can adapt...in essence longitudinal effects applied to parameter change. It is possible that is what Dollard is talking about...but...the Russian experiments are not doing that, I don't think.
For starters, the parameter change required to build the output will never come from aluminum. The permeability is so close to that of air, it won't change the inductance measurably. What would happen is that it would produce eddy currents that would repel the coil's field, thus decreasing inductance. The problem is that if there are eddy currents, then there is a magnetic field, which loads the motor every bit as much as magnetic material.
So, I see several possible inconsistencies with the theory, backed up by our own lab experiments. This makes me question the whole thing.
Eric Dollard seemed convinced that this paper was describing effects he had harnessed...so I believe that there may be more to it. But I would really love it if he were to come forward again and provide some clarification.
