Ah OK. The problem with a starter motor is the lack of turns on the coils, they require a huge current to work.
I have been thinking about what we need in the motor. If we need it to run on 220v 5 amps, we would normally have an amount of coil resistance to prevent the coils fusing before the BEMF builds up to restrict the current. As resistance is a loss that robs energy from a resonant circuit we don't want this resistance. We are also going to limit BEMF by restricting speed. In a normal motor circuit this would be a burn out condition. We are restricting the amps by pulsing so we wont burn out the motor.
If we use a starter motor on 12v it may draw 50 to 100 amps under load. If we then put 220v into it of course it will burn out as the current will also be 20 times higher, so we restrict the current with pulsing. If we restrict it to 100 amps our motor will run at normal power output but we are putting 22kw of power into the motor and it will melt as we cannot get rid of the heat.
The amount of power we can put into the motor is set by how much heat the motor can dissipate. The amount of output power is set by the current that can flow and the number of turns on the coils. It is therefore a requirement to have a high number of turns and a low resistance making the motor big for the amount of power it produces.
So a 2kw motor may be oscillated at 2kw but the current flowing has been dramatically reduced by pulsing so may only produce 600 watts (even lower when you consider the motor efficiency) so our resonant circuit has to be set up to consume less than that, possible but not easy.
If we use a 220v motor, the resistance is robbing the power and it does not work. If we use a 12v motor our resistance is good but we don't have sufficient turns on the coils to get the power output.
There is another way. If we oscillate a coil in a transformer in the same manner and limit the current drawn from the secondary winding, can we get more current to power a 12v motor? Yes. It looks to me like the motor is standard and it is the trifilar coil that is being oscillated. It is much easier to alter the specs of this coil than rewind a motor.
My experiments show that there is more energy oscillating in a resonant circuit than we put in, we just need a motor that draws less power than the gain and produces more energy than the input. Standard motors cannot run on this voltage and current. A transformer of sorts can step up current at the expense of voltage to run our motor. we just need to set it up and oscillate it to fit the parameters of the motor. Easier said than done.
At the moment I am back at the drawing board trying to work out how to do it. My initial ideas while in theory would work require a special motor. We know that the Lockrige motor was not totally rewound and that the rotor was standard.
