High-efficiency electric generation

Less than 30 percent of the energy in fuel oil becomes actual electricity in a typical diesel-electric generating system. That’s why we have to buy so much of it. Most of that expensive energy, in fact millions of dollars of it, is wasted in the mechanics of transforming its chemical energy into rotary motion to drive the electric generators. Wouldn’t it be nice if we could increase that efficiency up to say…70 percent? There exists a laboratory-tested method of doing just that.

The key lies in an understanding of how certain resonant fields interact with each other. In the cross-section illustration, high-speed air enters on the left of the generator. This can be produced by any convenient means. It could be the blast output from a jet turbine, or the output from a very large wind sock. Turbines are known for their efficiency in comparison to diesel engines, while a large wind collector provides free energy. It could even be hooked up to a storage tank, filled with compressed air from a wave-powered air pump.

Inside the generator, the air passing through is ionized by placing a high voltage of about 6,000 volts between the corona wire, and the anode. This charges the air as it passes through into the drift space. In the drift space, the ionized air slows down, increasing its pressure. Ionized air molecules project resonant fields that repel each other, increasing the pressure in the drift space even more.

This pressure forces the ionized fluid out through the collecting pipe, depositing its electric charge on the pipe itself. Because the output collecting pipe is also negative, just as the air particles have been charged negatively, the repelling resonant fields push back, trying to prevent the ions from passing through the collecting pipe and depositing their charge on to it. As a result, the charge on the collecting pipe is not a function of the input charging voltage, but of the speed and mass of the incoming air. So just as the alternator in your car gets its energy from the engine, and not from the field voltage that controls it, the device is a true generator, and a very efficient one at that. As reported in Popular Science, they are better than 70 percent efficient. And you can see why, since it needs no energy for running mechanical equipment of any kind.

The output voltage is typically about 500,000 volts. Now to the average person that may seem like a lot, but it also just happens to be a common voltage used in many electric transmission systems around the world. So it presents no difficulty to the trained technician.

Its efficiency can be increased by the addition of tiny water droplets into the incoming air using a nebulizer. The tiny drops ionize easier, increasing the amount of energy that can be extracted from the moving air. To the weatherman, this process now becomes quite recognizable, as that is the very same mechanism that drives thunderheads to manufacture lightning—but under completely controlled conditions.

Why should we view the process as a resonant field system rather than as a conventional electric generator? Well, for one, because it is the more advanced point of view. It gives us a more rounded understanding of the process, enabling us to make improvements where needed. The generator as shown produces direct current, DC, rather than the AC, or alternating current, needed for transmission by your electric utility. But ionized particles project resonant electric fields that establish a stress between the ionized particle and other objects in the field. This stress can be used to create a balanced resonant oscillator for the production of synchronous AC just like we like it.
