I've been trying to hunt down information about a Russian scientist
named Andrei Melnichenko but not having any success. I've been to the
APOCH search engine at; http://www.aport.ru/defeng.asp with no success.
The original article deals with using resonance between the generator
and the load to increase the efficiency of a load to a condition in
excess of 100%.
The article refers to batteries feeding an inverter which must be tuned
to match the operational frequency of the load. The claims are as much
as ten times more power than is needed to run the motor.
Using phase locked loops and varactors for autotuning as measured at the
load, it might be possible to make a circuit that would tune the output
frequency of the inverter for the optimum frequency based on the
feedback. The paper states a battery would only be necessary to start
such a motor, after that it could do work and run itself (how many times
have we heard that one)....however, in this case, I think it might be
possible.

The device consists of several batteries and a small converter to change
direct current into alternating current (220V, 50Hz) using electric
motor.
"My first experiments with high-frequency resonance transformers
produced results which, to say the least do not always accord with the
law of the conservation of energy, but there is a simple mathematical
and physical explanation of this", Melnichenko says.
"I have designed several special devices and electric motors which
contain many of these ideas and which may help them achieve full
resonance in a chain when it consumes energy only in the form of the
thermal losses in the winding of the motor and wires of the circuits
while the motor rotates without any consumption of energy whatsoever.
"This was shown during the demonstration", the inventor goes on to say.
"The power, supplied to the motors, was less than was necessary for
their normal operation! I have called the new physical effect
transgeneration of electric power. Electric resonance is the principle
underlying the operation of the device".
The capacity, developed by an electric motor, exceeds the supplied
electric power by many times, which may be used for devising absolutely
autonomous propulsion power units - a kind of superpower plant under the
hood.
The battery-driven vehicles, equipped with such power plants, would not
need frequent recharging because, just as is the case of an ordinary
engine, it would only need storage batteries for an electric start.
All the results have been confirmed by hundreds of experiments with
resonances in electric motors (both ordinary and special).
In special motors, it is possible to achieve the quality of resonance in
excess of 10 units. The technology of their manufacture is extremely
simple while the investments are minimal. The results are superb!
For instance, a device, supplied at the input with power equal to that
of three 'Energizer' batteries can make a 100-watt incandescent lamp
burn at the exit.
The frequency is about 1 MHz. Such a device has a rather simple circuit,
and is based on resonance. Using it, it is possible to by far increase
the power factor of energy networks, and to drastically cut the input
(reactive) resistance of ordinary transformers and electric motors.

The next version of the experiment is possible if you have a
single-polarity potential at the end of the wire for a pulsed current
transformer. You will note that with a positive potential on one wire
the arc is more powerful than for the other wire. This difference is
not demonstrated using an AC transformer. Both ends of an AC coil can
be used for creation of the arc.
This difference will show the nature of this type of free power arc.
Positive potential on the wire will provide for the attraction of free
electrons from the metal of the screw-driver. It is not the current of
conductivity that you are witnessing, but the DISPLACEMENT CURRENT.
Application of the above effect into a useful form can be made like the
well known Avramenko-Zaev-Lisin experiments [7].
The alternating potential as measured at point A is sufficient to
establish a current of conductivity in the closed circuit of VD1-VD2-R.
This diode pair configuration is called 'Avramenko's plug'.
I used for this scheme a 30 VAC hand-made generator (variable
oscillator) to supply the input for L1, at a frequency of 10 KHz. The
transformer was rated at 30/3000 Volts and the diodes rated at 1.5 KV.
The ammeter can be used as load R. Note that an ammeter placed between
the transformer and point A does not show any current drain.
