Impulse Magnetic Field

Pow! Zoom! To the Moon! (12 Jul 2002)

This is a copper disc on my impulse magnet. The copper disc generates a much larger Faraday stress field (much larger force) between the disc and the coil (than the half of toilet float does). The coil sits on three door-knob capacitors. They are just used as legs for this case.

Disaster strikes! This arch was PHENOMENALLY loud. I know it woke up my girl friend, because she came running out to the garage to see if I was still alive. Unfortunately, unlike working with theories, REAL experiments sometimes blow up. If you try this one, don't set the copper disc right on the coil. After I rewound this coil, I used a wooden spacer to separate the disc from coil.

Here is a frame by frame sequence of the launching of the disc. This frame is a few mili-seconds before launch.

This next frame is real interesting, notice the fire and sparks erupting from the coil as the spark gap breaks down. Keep in mind that this is a seven turn coil of 1 in wide braided wire (for most applications, this would be considered a very good direct short but here for these fast impulse times, thousands of volts are developed between the windings). A corona discharge is formed around the copper disc similar to what is seen in a Tesla coil.

Two frames later, the copper disc is just a blur, zooming skyward and taking that wooden spacer up with it. With about 1 ft. traveled between frames 3 and 4 at 30 frames/sec -> ~30 ft/sec or 20 mph ( 9 M/S for you international viewers ). Notice: the shape that produces the most force? It is a flat round disc. Sound familiar?

Here is a top view of the copper dics and impulse magnetic coil.

3... 2... 1... Liftoff (08 Jul 2002)

Three, Two, One,.. Liftoff, As the Large spark gap breaks down, the Concussions are heard through-out the neighborhood. Ka-Boomm, The dome shapped toilet float is launched in to the air. According to General Relativity, The impulsed magnetic field produces Faraday stresses in the space-time fabric of the universe (See GRAVITATION by Charles Misner, Kip Thorne and John Wheeler page 141). A stronge repulsive force is produced between the coil and the conductor.

Above is the toilet float takeing off at tremendous speeds. So this is just another demonstration of Lenz's law right?... No Actually I believe that This may be how anti-gravity fields are produced! Many substances are diamagnetic (which would be naturally repelled by the static fields) but even substance that aren't should be repelled if the dB/dt is large enough (due to conduction currents).

By Generating Intense Electro-magnetic fields and observing the forces produced and the time dilations, I see this as an oppertunity to create a UNIFIED FIELD THEORY for desiging an anti-gravity space ships.

Intense Magnetic Impulse Generator (28 Jun 2002)

(The Can Crusher)

Observe the un-suspecting vanilla coke can sitting in the seven turn coil (THE CAN CRUSHER). The coil is made with 1 inch wide braided strap for super low inductance. I wrapped the stapping with electrical tap, formed it in to a coil, and then more electrical to to hold its form.

And here is the mother of all capacitors, that drives that innocent looking coil. It is a 100kV (one hundred thousand volts!) 0.4 uF = 2 kJ (two Kilo-Joules) Unfortunatly due to leakage currents in my present setup I can only charge it up to aproximatly 1/2 the voltage or less (a W.A.G. R.O.M. guestimate based on years of experience and such). The cap is 4 ft long and 8 inches in diameter and heavy as all heck. It is charged by none-other that my newly completed 100kV voltage multiplier. I know what your thinking, Man Where Did That Guy Get That Cap :) The copper thing on the end is a toilet float.

And here is the out come, one crushed vinilla coke can. The can was noticeable crushen in, in a ring shaped area (nearest the coil). I am slightly disappointed with the outcome. I was hoping the can would have been more severly mangled than it was. The next step: I needs to overcome the leakage charge problem so I can give that can a real mashing. This pulse did impart some angular momumtum (the can was rotated actually in the direction the electrons were traveling in the coil). It could be coincidence becaue I did not observe this on the second can.

I did however over come the problem with the FET's overheating (and exploding). That there is a CPU heat sinc with a fan on it. With this new modification, the FET stay cool (a relative word) even for long durations of opperation.

And here is the signal generator and variac used to drive the charging circuit. I had to set the drive frequency around 38 kHz. Also:!!! Charge slowly (unless you like replaceing components) that is a lot of energy to put throught there.
