StarDrive
Generator – home of the revolutionary Electrodynamic
Field Generator –
Unlimited new potential for our world
now exists in the revolutionary StarDrive
Generator energy technology developed and
patented
by Archer Enterprises, which may soon be used for generating
electric power on commercial and utility scales more efficiently and
economically than virtually any other means known! And, alternative
energy researchers and all you
ZERO-POINT ENERGY
enthusiasts may be gratified to learn that a prototype of this exotic
non-nuclear over-unity electronic dynamo
for producing abundant, clean and inexpensive electric power is now
being assembled, using a number of commonplace late 20th century
technologies.
Electrodynamic Field Generator:
The official name of the StarDrive 'Electronic Dynamo', per
the U.S. Patent and PCT (international) Applications, is
Electrodynamic Field Generator.
The EDF Generator uses
banks of permanent magnets and rotating
Field Coils to produce a very-high DC rotor
voltage, and plane-parallel
ring electrode arrays to electrostatically
expand and control that voltage as applied to the housing,
so that huge quantities of external Field electrons will be self-accelerated
to extreme energy levels. It's somewhat like a glorified arc welder
whose output is deliberately shorted to its own casing, and the DC
voltage and current across the emitter and collector housing sections
can be thermoelectrically elevated to lightning-like values: but the
external Field current density is
limited to a value that falls short of damaging the casing materials!
StarDrive Generator housing &
electrodynamic Field configuration.
Electrons circulating in the external Field envelope (depicted in
blue above) can reach impact velocities at the two central collector
sections which are very nearly that of light. Vast quantities of heat
may therefore be generated in the StarDrive device's collectors, and
liquid sodium will be pumped through the Primary Arrays' ceramic
resistor networks (below) in large-scale machines as a coolant. Of
course, this "waste" heat may be used in the
commercial generation of electricityand
desalinization of seawater. In fact,
because an intense electric discharge field has the capacity to absorb
endless quantities of quantum background energy*,
the EDF Generator is so efficient that
the commercial desalination of seawater becomes truly cost-effective for
the first time! And the simple DC Primary
Power System, like the early

*The
EDF Generator is designed to take maximum advantage of the electron's
inherent ability to absorb nearly any amount of ambient photonic EM
energy and
zero-point energy (random
background electromagnetic vacuum
fluctuations)
as necessary to maintain its eternal steady-state spin, both in its
ceaselessly self-mobile kinetic activity and in an engineered
electrical circuit where untold numbers of electrons in a continuous
vacuum field discharge may be artfully manipulated into doing vast
quantities of recoverable work.
It would be hard to find a more cogent and satisfying explanation of
this controversial 21st-century electrodynamic principle [which would
validly account for the source of a StarDrive device's
over-unity power output] than that
recently published by Dr. Thomas Bearden
– who is one of the only inventors ever to
verifiably demonstrate true over-unity operation of an all-electromagnetic
device [the Motionless Electromagnetic Generator].
His superb 'technical' paper "Source
Charge, Van Flandern Waterfall, and Leyton Geometry", [Dec. 2, 2003]
fully and clearly provides – largely in
layman's terms! – the definitive answers as to why it must
be possible to extract
useful energy from the vacuum and its
associated zero-point energy.
You confuse COP with
efficiency, and they are two quite different things. Even many of the
textbooks confuse these terms quite often.
Rigorously, the
efficiency of a motor or system may be defined as (total useful output)
divided by (total energy input from all sources). No inert system
can have an efficiency of greater than 100%, for that would be a
violation of energy conservation.
The coefficient of
performance (COP) of a motor or system may be defined as (total useful
output) divided by (energy input by the operator only). If the
operator only has to input, say, 10 joules of energy and the active
environment freely inputs 90 joules of energy, then the total input is
100 joules. Now suppose that the system has 50% efficiency; i.e., it
wastes or "loses" half the energy before it dissipates the rest of it
in the load to do useful work. In that case the system outputs 50
joules of work for a total input of 100 joules, but with the operator
only inputting 10 of those 100 input joules.
So this system has
an efficiency of 50% but a COP =5.0.
A windmill, e.g.,
may have an efficiency of 30% or less, but its COP approaches infinity
because the operator does not have to input any energy at all. He
just pays for the siting, building of the windmill, repairs, and
maintenance. And hopes his winds hold good.
The common home
heatpump is usually not even 50% efficient, but in appropriate
conditions it has a maximum COP = 8.22, and any good heatpump will
actually produce about COP = 4.0.
In a sailboat, you
have to input some energy to move the rudder and steer it, but not
nearly so much energy as is used to propel the boat through the water.
The wind caught by the sail inputs the rest of it. Yet the sail is a
fairly sloppy process also, and unless well-designed will not be
nearly as efficient as a well-designed one.
So the trick is to
get the active environment to give you a "free wind" so you can have
something approaching a windmill. Or as close to that as you can get.
Fortunately, in
electrodynamics there are many "free winds" one can make with ease.
The simplest one is to just make a common dipole. Lee and Yang
received a Nobel Prize in 1957 for their work in broken symmetry and
the weak interaction. One of the broken symmetries that was proven
was that of opposite charges -- such as are on the ends of a dipole.
The very words "broken
symmetry" in power systems implies that something virtual has become
observable. In other words, the charges of the dipole continually
absorb virtual photons from the seething vacuum (that is proven and
well-known, and one does not have to prove it again). The spin of the
charges then coherently integrates that absorbed virtual energy into
real, observable EM energy. The dipole thus pours out EM energy in
all directions at the speed of light. Let it alone and don't destroy
it, and it will pour out that energy indefinitely. The dipoles in the
original matter in the universe have been doing that for some 14
billion years or so. We used that fact of broken symmetry of opposite
charges, together with the known clustering of virtual charges of
opposite sign around any "isolated" observable charge, to treat the
observable charge as a set of composite dipoles. Hence this finally
explained the long-vexing source charge problem: how does a charge
just sit there an pour out energy in all directions at the speed of
light, establishing its associated fields and potentials and all that
energy in them? We explained that in 2000, after a couple or three
years work on it.
A simple "free
energy system" can be built for a dollar. Just place a charged
capacitor (or electret) across a permanent magnet so that the E-field
is perpendicular to the H-field of the magnet. That silly thing will
sit there and pour out Poynting energy flow S = E x H, so long as you
just let it alone. Wait one year, and it will have changed the energy
density of a volume of space a light year in radius (reaching out
beyond the solar system).
In solving the
dipole and source charge problems, it was found that the energy input
comes from the time domain into 3-space via the negative charge, and
exits 3-space back to the time domain via the positive charge.
In electrical
engineering, it is recognized that the source charge pours out the
energy to create all its associated fields, but until 2000 there has
been no explanation as to what furnished the input energy. In effect,
electrical engineering and classical electrodynamicists for more than
a century have assumed that every charge in the universe is a
perpetual motion machine of the worst kind, creating energy out of
nothing.
There is no problem
at all in extracting all the energy one wishes from the active vacuum,
anywhere in the universe, at any time. Just make a dipole.
The problem is in
(1) catching some of that freely gushing EM energy in a circuit
containing a load, and (2) dissipating the caught and collected EM
energy in that load to power it, without using half the caught energy
to destroy the source dipole(s).
That is the ONLY
real energy problem on the planet, and always has been.
It is ironic that
the National Academy of Science, the National Science Foundation, the
great national test labs, the universities, and the private research
institutes are not working on the sole energy problem at all.
Hope this helps.

Hi, first let me thank you for all your great research and time you
devoted for our society &
With great respect I would like to clarify simple shadow that is left
upon a discussion I had with somebody about your research & Id really
like to be able to explain all of this myself to my partner but I can
t & perhaps if you could help me I would really appreciate.
In this article you describe a 1.25 over unity system & everything was
fine until my partner pointed at me that such electrical circuit is
merely impossible to find (I mean by this that it as 100% efficiency
&) and that most of scientist or engineer would always take those lost
of energy in their calculation of efficiency & therefore leaving this
kind of theorical experiments impossible to be.
If I did well understand him, no circuit is totally 100% free of lost
of energy & so that it would be impossible to get 100% of power at the
shaft. And as following, the total power calculated would (in a
perfect world approach 100% of used power or inputed).
I think you are right about this but I have no good explanation about
this & so once again id really appreciate you help me out here &
The energy density of the vacuum potential is enormous, even mind-boggling.
While scientists have estimated that energy by various means, a
reasonable calculation is given by Wheeler and Misner in their
Geometrodynamics. In that calculation, Wheeler and Misner apply the
formalism of general relativity to the zero point energy of vacuum. The
fabric of space appears as a turbulent virtual plasma consisting of
particles whose size is on the order of Planck's length—some
10 -33 cm. The energy density of the electric flux passing
through each particle is enormous: It is 1093 grams per
cubic centimeter, expressed in mass units (i.e., the energy per cubic
centimeter has been divided by c2).
And that's just using the spatial energy density (the
“decompressed”
or ordinary energy). The energy density of the vacuum is appreciably
greater than what physicists normally calculate, because they do not
calculate the additional time-energy density portion of the
vacuum stress. If we also allow for the time-energy (the
“compressed”
energy), we restore that c2 division factor, producing on the
order of 10110 grams per cubic centimeter, or—in
energy terms—on the order of 10127
joules per cubic centimeter.

Tom Bearden comments:
There are many ways to extract
energy from the seething vacuum. Unfortunately, at present our
scientific community takes a bizarre stance. In particle physics it
is well known that the active vacuum is incredibly energetic.
Calculations by leading physicists such as Wheeler show that a cubic
centimeter of vacuum (about the tip of one's little finger in volume)
has so much raw energy in it that, if condensed into matter, there
would be more matter than is observable in the universe through the
largest telescope! So even a tiny efficiency of tapping could and will
extract all the energy anyone could wish.
However, in classical Maxwell
Heaviside electrodynamics (as used in electrical engineering), the
same scientific community now assumes in the model that the vacuum is
absolutely inert!
The model also assumes that the
local spacetime is flat, so no energy from curved spacetime can be
forthcoming, according to that inane model. Then the model assumes
that all EM fields, potentials, and every joule of EM energy in the
universe is produced by their associated source charges—right
out of nothing at all, with no energy input to the charge at all, but
with continuous energy flow from it.
----------------------------------------------------------
Perhaps the greatest advantage the EDF Generator may have over
almost any other over-unity device
now known or proposed is that it is fundamentally linearly-scalable
– including the liquid sodium coolant system. Not only can large
"Thermal Unit" devices be designed to produce electrical power at 60
to 720 MW output levels, but
they will be able to do so for many
years before the permanent magnet banks must be remagnetized!
And the only truly external input energy required in
the meantime is that
necessary to initially bring the rotor up to speed . . .**
[ On June 11, 2002, U.S. Patent6,404,089 for the Electrodynamic
Field Generator was issued to Mark Tomion, president of
Archer Enterprises. To the best of our knowledge, this Patent is the
first in the world for a truly all-electric
power plant, and you may
click here to link to it. Regrettably, most
of the equations provided at the close of the Description section,
which define the classic 'flying saucer' housing configuration that is
so important to the device's proper operation, are virtually
unrecognizable in the online American version.
Fortunately, the Europeans distilled a pdf
copy for the EDF Generator's PCT (International)
Patent Application that is photostatically identical to the
original, and the math and drawings came through beautifully. The
Detailed Calculations are shown on pages 70–78, and the Table of
Dimensions that describes the housing's shape in
purely algebraic terms is on pgs. 70–71.

From this perspective, it can be seen that the 24kW air-cooled
StarDrive (EDF) Generator we are currently
prototyping – which is only 30" in diameter, and will weigh less than 50
lbs. – should exhibit an extraordinary over-unityCoefficient of Performance for the following reasons:
(1) in a StarDrive Generator or Dynamo, DC
current is induced to flow in the Field output circuit by means of
static electric fields which impress a voltage directly across the
conductive rotor segments, rather than by alternating magnetic fields
that are linked to a ferromagnetic armature and/or stator. And, given
the resultant capacitive brushless isolation of the output rotor current
from the induction ring input circuit, the
magnitude of the device's DC output current is
limited only by rotor ampacity and the thermionic emission rate of its Primary Array cathodes – and
is therefore electrochemically- and temperature-dependent only (not
mechanically and/or magnetically dependent);
(2) a load-proportional magnetic back-torque on the ceramic rotor
is not continuously produced but only while the output
current is increasing, and otherwise the full-load
input torque required is not significantly greater than that under open-circuit
(no-load) operation! So, the equilibrium input torque at any
given output level is merely that required to overcome simple frictional
losses;
(3) by carrying the entire output current on only
a small number of radialinear rotor segments, even the tiny remaining
inductive magnetic losses just described are minimized, in that
the self-inductance of a straight conductor is lower than that of a
closed-loop by a factor of π (pi). While only 32 such segments
are used in our prototype 24kW StarDrive
Generator, the self-inductance in any typical generator or
electromagnetic coil is the product of hundreds or thousands of turns (or
closed loops) of wire – leading to Lenz losses which are correspondingly
higher than those that will be evident in any EDF Generator; and
(4) most importantly, once a 24 kW no-load
Field current has been established at a desired inverter input voltage,
electrical input to the warm-up heaters may be wholly discontinued
due to adequate internal voltage-drop heating of the power resistors and
their attached thermionic primary cathodes – and then the
only significant input power required is that drawn by the small
DC rotor drive motor.
For these reasons we are confident that our prototype 24kW
air-cooled StarDrive Generator will demonstrate during
certified testing a minimum no-load COP of
20 [i.e., a net output-to-input ratio of 20:1], and a
minimum full-load COP of between 4 and 7.
Such a successful demonstration will quickly open up incredible
opportunities for both private and commercial entities in applications
which could never be cost-effectively (or profitably) developed to date.
One of the first applications we intend to pursue with the 24kW
StarDrive Generator is the commercial electrolytic
production of hydrogen for use in fuel cells, and for a
very interesting and informative look at this timely issue you may wish

Dynamo units in the commercial desalination or

Notes – –
> Whether
or not you (our good visitors) acknowledge humanity's dire need to
develop an advanced new electric power generation
technology which obviates any continued dependence on
nonrenewable hydrocarbons, and soon, you should take a few
moments to review and contemplate the recent findings of a group of
Swedish scientists regarding their revised downward estimate of
remaining global oil and natural gas reserves. While the U.S. government
would encourage us to believe that global oil reserves are adequate for
another 25 years at the present rate of consumption, and that sufficient
natural gas remains for over 65 years, the Swedish team's analysis
suggests these figures may more realistically be something like only
18 years and 45 years respectively. Please see this NewScientist.com
article (dated 10/05/03).
And from another source: Most experts agree that there is
between 990 billion and 1.1 trillion barrels of accessible crude
petroleum oil left on the planet; the BP World Energy Review 2002 puts
the number at 1.05 trillion barrels. At the present rate of consumption,
24 billion barrels per year, the world will run out of oil by 2043.
However, if the demand for crude oil continues to increase at the same
rate it has in the past, the world's oil supply may be depleted as soon
as 2020. [ref.:
www.biotour.org/fossilfuels.html]
One might also stop to consider the following: according
to a great recent article in the New York Times ["As Earth Warms,
the Hottest Issue is Energy", by Kenneth Chang; dated 11/04/03], the
world's total energy use is currently about 12 trillion joules per
second – the equivalent of lighting around 120 billion 100-watt bulbs –
and 85 percent of that comes from fossil fuels. About 64% of the world's
electricity is generated with fossil fuels.
