The following specification particularly describes and ascertains the nature of this invention and the manner in which it is to be performed.
Generation of low d.c voltage at high current and high efficiency is the field covered by this invention.
The German Association Of Gravity Field Energy invited the writer to an International Conference held at Hannover in 1987 to deliver a lecture on his research on "Space Power Generation" and awarded the First Prize for the demonstration of a working model of SPG. Also, on his new field of research, many papers by the writer have been published in the Proceedings of the International Conferences in USA and Italy where he was invited to deliver invited talks. The present patent application pertains to "High Efficiency Space Power Generator (SPG)" invented by the writer through his experiments given in the above published papers.
In electromagnetic induction, which is the principle used
in conventional d.c generators, electromotive force (emf) is
induced when magnetic flux cuts a conductor due to motion of the conductor
relative to the flux or vice-versa. Also, emf is induced when flux linkage
with the conductor changes with time. Faraday in 1832 rotated together
a copper disc and a magnet with magnetic field at right angles to the surface
of the copper disc and noticed
generation of emf between periphery of the disc and its
axis though there was no relative motion between the copper disc and the
magnetic field. The effect noticed by Faraday does not appear in engineering
text books and therefore not known to many. DePalma's experiments too are
similar to Faraday's in the sense that an electromagnet, with cylindrical
core and the electric coil integrally mounted on it, is rotated to produce
emf between its periphery and the axis of rotation. In this system the
efficiency of electrical power produced as discovered by Bruce DePalma
is at very high efficiency. The writer discovered through his
experiments that in a rotating integral assembly of cylindrical iron core
and electric coil mounted around it, emf is induced also in radial conductors
in the core and without being in contact with the core except at the central
axis of rotation, despite the fact that it has no contact with the steady
magnetic field in the core. This unique effect of magnetic induction was
pubished by the writer in an article entitled "Electromagnetic Induction
of Space Substratum", Page 16, Jan-Feb 1992 Journal of Borderland Research,
CA, USA, and is the basic concept utilised in the development of the present
invention. To summarise:
1. Faraday discovered that electromagnetic induction, in a co-rotating assembty of conducting disc and disc magnet is possible.2. Bruce DePalma discovered the above effect of Faraday and also that electrical power produced through such a co-rotating magnet field-conductor system is at very high efficiency.
3. The writer discovered that electromagnetic inductcion in such a co-rotating magnetic-conductor system can take place even when the radial conductor embedded in the conducting disc is neither in contact with the magnetic field nor is cut by the magnetic field.
The development of this invention took place due to the above new phenomena of electromagnetic induction.
Further description of the present invention is given now in the following specifications and the attached drawings.
