It is not free energy, but it's so close that you should stop complaining and just build one. It won't last forever and you will have to re-build it every couple of years and buy new wire.

Basically, you make an extremely high iductance coil where the windings themselves are the electrodes in a galvanic battery.

When you tap off of the outer iron to the inner copper or the outer copper to the inner iron, this lets current flow through the battery and due to the fact that it's wound as a soleloid it produces a magnetic field.

The galvanic reaction occurs over the entire length of the wires so the voltage is produced along the entire length of the wire. This means that you don't really observe a delay in power delivery because the votlage reaches saturation immediately even though it's a very high inductance coil.

The votlage you are provided at the taps is delivered to the user as if it was a battery.

Nathan Stublefield used this to transmit radio. He would control the current draw from the battery and the battery would act as an amplifying radio transmitter.

By wrapping a secondary winding around the battery, you can step-down the "effective voltage" that drives the solenoid-battery. The higher the switching frequency on the battery, the higher the "effective voltage" being applied to the solenoid part is.

Nathan used this phenomena to get actual useful power you can use to power you house or farm.

It's not infinite energy, it will wear out.

But it's a lot more energy than you would normally expect if you were only looking at the galvanic reactions.

I think this is loosely hidden technology, more relying on people to "not get it" to stay hidden.

I want to do a replication of Nathan Stubblefields 1898 American Patent #600,457.

What's you're opinion on the following?

I want to try replicating his battery because of an interesting phenomenon you can do with his battery and claims in the patten that he used it to get ~50 A ~50 V. He was under the impression that his battery was an energy harvesting system because of the amount of power he was getting....

I'm less convinced, I think it's just a really clever self-powered electro-magnets with directional control over the field and control over the strength of the field by controlling which taps are used and how much current is drawn from the galvanic reaction. Since the galvanic reaction happens over the entire length of wire in the coil the "effective" voltage applied to the coil is significatnly larger than what's available as "terminal voltage".

I was watching "laserhacker" test out his replication of the batter and show a bit of how it works and I get it now and I want to make sure.

Basically, the battery electrodes are the solenoid wires and you tap off of them so that the current flow during battery opperation harmonises and causes the soft iron core to magnetise.

The battery still only provides 0.9-2 V depending on the metals used and still only provides small short crcuit currents. The genius is that the entire length of wire in the coil is part of the galvanic cell and contributes to the current flow.

Now, you wrap a secondary around the primary as a "step-down" transformer and you draw power from the primary by switching it on and off to induce current flow on the secondary and you use the secondary as your main power source. There's still only maybe 0.1-0.2 Amp of current flow in the primary, but the inductance of the primary is really large because the coil is HUGE. The idea is that the "effective" voltage is what is being stepped down, not the "terminal" voltage.

What ends up happenning is that to push the same current through an equivalent coil at the same switching speed would need 1000s of volts, not 0.9-2 volts. So while you can only access 0.1-0.2 A @ 0.9-2 V of current flow through the galvanic reaction at the terminals, the "effective" voltage on the coil is much higher if you consider the summation of the galvanic reactions over the length of the primary coil.

Stepping down the "effective voltage" and using the secondary as the power source, you have an ultra-powerful, long lasting earth battery. The galvainc reaction happens slowly because it's limitted by the charge flow during switching, but the power from the secondary is impressive.

Any ways, that's assuming his pattent is accurrate.

Besides that is it logical that the entire galvanic cell should indeed produce voltage so it would actually kinda be different that simply trying to inject power into the electromagnet at the terminals is sound right?

Like the concept of "effective voltage" of the length of wires making up the primary?

The biggest issue to do the replication will be finding the right wire to make the solenoid-battery out of.

Any ideas?

He was just as wrong about thermodynamics as he was about the viability of airplanes.

So the carnot engine and it's reverse action -> the refrigeration cycle prove Newtons laws of motion to be correct no matter how much Lord Kelvin or any other scientist desperately wants them to be wrong.

"For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction."

So when you try to run an engine off of a heat differential, that heat differential is only cappable of transferring a percentage of the available power from heat energy to mechanical motion because of the relationship between heat and pressure.

When you reverse the heat engine by applying the pressure instead of the heat, you get the refrigeration cycle where the ammount of heat energy that moves is a multiple more than the compression energy.

For example, if a stirling engine (a type of carnot engine) is 50% efficient running off of a heat differential, it will be 200% efficient in creating that same heat differential. Since most engineering and science professors are dogmatic unqestioning followers of Lord Kelvin, this causes mental dissonance and in order to deal with the conflict of evidence and belief, they decided to call 200% efficient COP 2.0.

Seriously, you can go to Wal-Mart and buy window mount ac units with COPs of like 2.5. But cognitive dissonance prevents the larger community from recognising this as a proof of free energy.

Once you understand why an air conditioner works this way with heat, you can look to do the same for other energy types:

Mass energy cannot be created or destroyed, but potential energy is the plaything of the clever engineer. You don't need to CREATE energy if you can make it FLOW BACKWARDS with a COP.

So I keep starting arguments because I keep forgetting do define "free energy" and I will not make that mistake this time because my definition is thermodynamically acceptable.

When I say "free energy" I mean energy that is freely available and doesn't need to be purchased and is practically inexhaustible.

When I say "free energy device" I mean a device that gives me a net benefit energy-wise and costs less to run than the value of the energy I get from it.

I consider heat pumps to currently be THE PENULTIMATE FREE ENERGY DEVICE since you personally spend X joules to run the pump and get 1.8X to 7X the energy on the hot side as what it took to run the pump.

People can say "yeah, but it's not creating energy" and they're right, and a water pump doesn't create water either, but a water pump, pushing water up a slope doesn't push more kinetic energies worth of water than what it took to run the pump while a heat pump relocates more heat energy than what it took to run the pump.

What does this tell you? Energy can be relocated with a COP greater than 1.

Plain and simple. It's a proven fact since you can purchase an air conditioner and test it yourself.

Now we take this fact and run with it. Since you know it's possible to relocate existing energy with a COP > 1 it's just a matter of finding the clever ways to take advantage of this.

Example Device 1: Nitinol heat scavenging generator

Nitinol belt is placed on two pulleys, one large and one small, and tensioned so that the Nitinol is resting as detwinned martensite to lower transformation temperature hysteresis, a heat pump is used to pull heat from the surrounding environment and cold side of the Nitinol set-up and heat the hot side. The resulting mechanical energy is used to drive a generator.

The generator will pull heat from the environment and give you electricity in return.

Example Device 2: Potential energy manipulating electrostatic generator.

Two uncharged conductive plates are placed parallel to eachother, a third plate, charged to a high voltage, is placed between the two outer plates.

The two outer plates are connected by an isolated electric circuit.

When the inductors is in dead center it rests in a null point, but when it moves to a side, the inductance causes more charge to accumulate in one plate than the other.

The net result is that sweeping the plate from side to side takes energy to get to the null point, but then returns the potential energy to complete the other half of the motion.

The net kinetic energy spent to move the plate side to side is frictional heating and air resistance. But the energy that moves from outer plate to outer plate is a magnitude that's related to the magnitude of charge on the inductor.

If the inductor is high enough voltage. Then you will relocate more energy than the value of friction and air resistance.

If a load is placed in between the plates, energy is still lost through the load in the first half of the movement, however, the second half of the movement is still free and still returns kinetic energy because of the force of electrostatic attraction. Resulting in a maximum theoretical COP of 2.

To better illustrate example 2 I will provide a chatGPT conversation in the comments that is a good walkthrough for the opperational logic in the example with mathematic estimations based on accepted scientific theory and show that the laws of conservation of energy are not violated but are actually preserved.

Enjoy.

In my next post I will tell you how to collect energy that didn't previously exists and challenge the laws of thermodynamics.
