I was rereading the page below and struck by this interesting
geometric description for a coil and capacitor arrangement as
excerpted from the URL at;
http://www.insidetheweb.com/mbs.cgi/mb124201
=====================
The process of resonance includes a coil that produces a magnetic
field and normally a capacitor that holds an electric field.
If we made a special capacitor; say a water capacitor; and put that
capacitor INSIDE the magnetic field of the coil so that both the
electric and magnetic fields are reasonably at right angles then one
should expect an interaction between those fields that will move free
charges at right angles to both the causitive fields.
We assume this from what might be called lorentz force law which
basically is incorporated in the motor /generator concept.
================
Our most recent deviation from reality was from the claim saying that
a coil placed inside a capacitor charged to 15KVDC or so would produce
energy to sustain a load.
The 'inventor' said it was based on the observation in a book about a
ball bearing placed between two highly charged aluminum plates and
which would revolve around the rim of the plates, holding to the rim
as it rotated under some mystery force.
The idea being that if some kind of field was being swept around the
plates by virtue of the high voltage, then this field should interact
with a coil, instead of acting as a motor force on the conductive
ball, to produce a useable current. (sounds like Tesla's Columbus egg
demonstration which used purely magnetic fields)
The point here was that the swept field should induce a current in a
coil placed between the plates.
Now here comes this report suggesting a capacitor inside a coil, a bit
different arrangement....is there something here worth looking into?
The inventor who made the other claim of the coil inside the capacitor
said he had to fiddle with it for the right dimensions and
arrangement, though none in our team could remotely achieve that per
his directions. Nor could the inventor after he said his first unit
burned up.
Now this report says you must arrange it so that the two fields are at
right angles to each other...hmmm, curiouser and curiouser....
