    DC is less complicated to understand circuit impedance simple resistace.
    A matching network is to form a hand shake between signal output and an input port for
    example between a signal generator and an amplifier. Why because a mismatch would cause reflection that would block the signal also they act as a filter to reduce harmonics.

    I chose this video as a hands on example of impedance matching for tesla coil at 3.47 Mhz. The value of the HV capacitor or double sided copper clad
    can be calculated using online calculator to determine surface area for 3.17
    followed with a 2n5109 would make inexpensive signal source look awesome.

    I built a ten turn coil yesterday like the one in the video. Using a signal generator I derive a value in uH then divide by 10 gives me the actual uH per turn. The matching network when complete can be checked out of circuit bt terminating it with a 50 ohm resistor.

      Repeatedly Eric has said that the education system is a ly and I have to agree with him on a factual level.
      A course in electromagnetic starts with the electron and the Drude model to explain everything about currents and fields but than when they get to magnetic induction they have to introduce Faradays law because with the Lorentz forse and electrons you can not explain the situation where a magnetic field gets stronger and induces an EMK. There is nothing moving in that case. When the circuit loop is moving in a not uniform magnetic field you can use the Lorentz forse to explain the EMK but when no loop or coil is moving that Lorentz equation does not work. So they finally mention Faraday who said that a magnetic field is formed to oppose the changing magnetic field. Than they get to the Maxwell equations because Maxwell discovered that an electric field is formed to oppose a changing electric field. And than we get to electromagnetism and the Poynting vector. Fine and than? Nothing. They do not go back to the early circuit theorie and now explain the currents with Maxwell. They just leave you in the middle all confused and than you get your bull.

      This article very clearly points out that the education system has to change. That people should learn the Maxwell approach right away and not be bothered with electrons. It is also a useful way for us to understand Maxwell and you find links to learn more until they rewrite the books.



      Now this ly is almost impossible to get rid of but I ask everyone to look at superconductors. There the surface current is 100nm deep. Do these electrons carry the energy or do they form the obstructors of the electromagnetic energy? The boundary conditions for the field equations not the energy carriers.

        You can actually make a pi network with two coils and a capacitor. That looks more like Erics analog of the Tesla coil. I am thinking that perhaps that would make the Tesla waves even stronger?

        • That is also the reason why Eric uses tubes I think. He mentioned that in one of these colleges. The tube forms a capacitor in the direction of the conduction (with high voltage) and that way resembles the analog of the Tesla coil better? Conducting or raising Tesla waves.

            • The general term "Displacement current" was derived as a mechanical analogy by observation.
              If the Alexanderson waves can show mathematical proof of unique properties of electromagnetism then it is a
              Special case of displacement current. It is desirable that counter space not confused with events that are confined inside a vacuum tube or confined or condensed inside between capacitor plates such as casimir or nuclear physics on surface materials in vacuum which are radioactive. It is the assemblage of fractal aether in open air.
              It does relate to the event between the wires of transmission line seen on The Alexanderson model.

                Regardless of what one may or may not seemingly achieve in their lifetime, anyone who does anything that's based on "truth" contributes to the whole in some way because it continues the work and progresses/unfolds the idea to a point that's further along than where they themselves picked it up, and inevitably at some point in the future someone else will pick it up from there, and so the whole thing evolves according to the law of nature. For example, if nothing else, assuming the internet prevails, there are now high resolution pictures and videos of such things that have never been seen by practically any scientist let alone the general public; there are no videos of Tesla demonstrating his currents passing through his body like someone may read in a book, but demonstrations are now available. If just that inspires someone who would otherwise not be inspired in the future, then the overall goal is achieved.

                Philosophy aside, get creative! One engineering goal is to perfect the system, also there may be important scientific implications, otherwise as Sputins said, what applications can you come up with or discover etc.

                • Very well said everyone! I would like to contribute as much as I can. Some of my observations are speculative but one is that every time I put on my coil I come to think 'he where is that cold coming from?'. Again and again. Just like the occasionally bird that keeps trying to fly in my room. Also it has a more than remarkable influence on my health. I get very very clear and quiet. Is that an effect on my consciousness? It makes me think brighter. But hey we can't rule out the placebo but it is a damned good placebo so give me more

                  What also struck me on an internet search and when I found it computers started to reboot etc etc so I was on a trail because negativity was working against me but it was the name Hutchison. You might know about him. He experimented with two Tesla coils and high voltage dc and a tube driver and produced some remarkable video's. He admits that he is not able to reproduce them so strong anymore since 1990. He also admits not knowing how it works and viewers have to spend hours watching just to see something. There is also an effect that background radiation seems to drop. So now he is in Japan working with the radiation problems there.

                  Hutchison than in the 80's at 4 minutes levitation etc.

                  • One more idea I had. I think I am starting to understand the Tesla coil so I will post my understanding so anyone can correct that. Also I will post an idea.

                    Eric explains that the Tesla coil is build as a transmission line. The transmission line is, when in quarter wave resonance, a monopolar situation. Meaning that the field is maximal and minimal but not at the same time. Thereby it is radiating to the environment instead of closing in a circuit.

                    Now the Tesla coil is basically a transmission line reversed. Meaning the capacitors are in series and the inductors are parallel. Eric demonstrated that in this situation a quarter wave resonance leads to the magnetic field and the electric field being in fase at the same place. I know to calculate this is nearly impossible and requires solving fourth order differential equations as Bewley produced these equations. Eric produced solutions to these equations basically using quarternions from Maxwell but even that in a simplified engineering way like Steinmetz did with second order equations.

                    So we have a Tesla coil with the unique features that the electric and magnetic fields are maximal in fase and on the top.

                    Now my idea. If we would construct the Tesla coil in a hyperbolic way like a hyperbolic antenna would that not focus this field? Could we produce a Tesla beam? The coil would be a combination of a flat pancake coil and a Colorado springs coil I guess.

                    Or perhaps the flat pancake coil is already a way to focus the beam? I don't understand that yet.

                    • I realised that the globe or the vaccuum tube in the middel of the pancake is used to focus the Tesla current

                        • I am sorry about the mistake let me clarify:
                          In order to use an inexpensive signal source I would build a series tank like the video.
                          Which is simply capacitor followed by coil for air coupling. If you use an HF rig then you already have a nice sine wave and enough power and this step is not necessary. You can still use tube amplifier. The effects will be good the 2N5109 follower should give enough amplification about a watt at this stage.
                          here is generic vacuum tube example EICO-324-Signal-Generator.pdf

                          https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fUo6IhSouEILC Resonance Frequency Calculator - Ekswai

                          you should get 3.48 Mhz however the impedance is about 1000 ohms Z

                          for 3.17 Mhz coupling at 300 ohm Impedance the values are about 15 uH and 168pF.

                          If you want to build your own capacitor, Tesla would try the FR4 dielectric.
                          It should not cause fumes at 1 watt.

                          • General setup. Left hand side coil set is the original, which is powered by the transmitter. The Right hand side coil set is the new one, which is setup as the receiver at the moment. One wire connects the two telluric outputs together. The receiver coil does light plasma tubes from the terminal capacity, could be optimised further I think.


                            The twin, (image) coil-set is born. Secondaries are wound opposite to each other. The primary coils are both wound in the same direction. (Later they can both be connected in series).


                            Extra coils omitted for the time being.

                            • Very nice! I'm not sure that a loading coil specifically is necessary. As far as I can make out the main reason Eric used it in the video was basically to bias the transmitter a bit, to sink the energy in the direction rather than towards the free terminal. I think a bucket of soil and such in parallel does a similar job, just something to load it a bit. But you may find that the bulb gets less bright that way because it gets loaded a bit too much. But on the plus side you might then be able to light bulbs from metal plates near the bucket!

                              • In my opinion Eric's homepage should also include the original experimental video's like this one:

                                Tesla's Longitudinal Electricity - Eric Dollard, Peter Lindemann & Tom Brown - YouTube
                                Free Videos | Eric P. Dollard – Official Homepage

                                They are the ones that still inspire the most. The other video's are attempts to explain this.

                                Just a note
