The Spark Gap - Toward Overunity?

Hermes Atar Trismegistus



Between 1897 and 1901 John Sealy Edward Townsend discovered the process of Free Energy, were free electrons are accelerated in an electric field between two electrodes. As the electrons are accelerating they are ionising more atoms that liberates more electrons that are moving toward the anode (the positive (+)). The ionized atom moves toward the catode (the negative (-)).This is known as the Electron avalanche also known as Townsend discharge.

Townsend Avalanche


Mark McKay has additional information about the Spark Gap and Free Energy:

Your discussion of Townsend Avalanche theory as it relates to the Gray Technology is missing two important aspects. The spark gap that is responsible for the anomalous energy is exposed to large opposing magnetic fields as the distance between the electrodes quickly increases. This was not the case in the CSET device and that is not were the overunity was generated. The Bloch Wall of the magnetic interface appears to have been located right in the middle of the arc plasma. This is a very complex situation to analyze much less duplicate.

While the creation of additional free electrons is a well studied Townsend process the overall impact of this operation is very much associated with the parameters of the power supply as well. With more current carriers injected into the gap the effective resistance drops - thus the negative resistance phenomena appears. What is generally over looked is that this process doesn’t continue forever. It is limited by the availability of untouched air atoms to which can be ionized. When the local supply of these atoms is exhausted the process returns to the physics of a steady arc. In the Gray system that doesn’t happen because we are talking about a short duration event less than 10 milliseconds.

The overall response of the system depends upon having a constant voltage supply or a constant current supply. Most people use a classical discharge capacitor which is neither constant voltage nor constant current, thus the effects they are looking for do not materialize.

Dr. Tesla specifically said in 1892 he used a constant current supply (HV generator) in his original experiments to explore the beginnings of "Radiant energy".

Smokey has some theoretical design of the Ron Cole Impulse Discharge and the Chernetsky Self Generating Discharge.

Self Generating Discharge



In 1973 Edwin V. Gray became famous as the inventor of the Free Energy motor called EMA that he recieved a patent for in June 17, 1975 USP 3,890,548 in which he disclose a high voltage sparkgap engine (3000 Volts). The mechanical output was 275 times the electrical input! and in April 10, 1980 his regenerative energy recovery system e. g. for electromagnetic propulation was published as a UK patent application GBPA 2,030,801

Eleven years later on June 17, 1986 . Gray recieved US Patent USP 4,595,975 on a battery powered powersource which output 4 times more energy than the energy contained in the battery.

Tesla's disruptive transformer with magnetic horn gap produced the silver white aetheric fire via unidirectional DC pulses. Tesla even specified the rest period of the firing pulses of .0062 millisecond. The conversion tube worked the same way!

Almost one year later on April 28, 1987. Gray recieves US Patent USP 4,661,747 for his conversation tube.

Edwin V. Gray died of an heart attack in mysterious circumstances 1989, and with him died the technology.

Mark McKay has the following information to share about the Edwin V. Gray technology:

1. The overall efficiency output of Gray Technology at its state of development in 1973 was established to be 282 times the energy input (Coefficient of Performance = COP). This was evaluated by two PhD. EE with extensive backgrounds in power supplies. These tests were conducted for 10 days at Cal-Tech, CA using the best instrumentation available.

2. The 6,000Hz device (Electrostatic Generator) was a failure. It was a transistor version designed and built by Richard Hackenberger. It was designed to replace the original Ron Cole device that employed a spark gap and mechanical vibrator. At best it was advertised to have a COP of 4.0, but this was never tested by a 3rd party laboratory. The original Cole "Black Box" operated at 100 Hz.

3. The circuit you describe is from the 1986 patent for the "Converter Switching Element Tube". It is a custom device intended to control the anomalous "Cold Electricity", it was not the source of that energy. This author believes that the actual converter circuit was hidden in component #16 shown in your schematic as a capacitor. Even so, these CSET devices were removed from the Free energy engine EMA6 in April of 1976. It is thought that they failed to operate at higher energy levels. However, three capacitors( #16) remained with the engine.

4. None of the theory of operation you have in your report has been validated. In fact much of it has been disproved in actual tests. The real heart of this technology is still open for debate or experimentation.


In the early 1970's but in the Sovietunion Alexander V. Chernetsky and his friend Yuri Galkin expremented with a basically new type of a high frequency, high current electrical generator. It gave out almost 5 times more electrical energy than you put in.

New Alexander V. Chernetsky died in a car accident in early 1990's and the secret of the Chernetsky Plasma Generator died with him.

New Beyond Hydrogen: Discovery of Tiny New Atom Tauonium With Massive Implications



Norm,

I'm having a little trouble understanding what Tiny New Atom Tauonium can be used for? From what I understand, it reacts to electromagnetic fields.

What if strong magnetic fields due to strong currents and low voltage could be used to extract free energy?

It reminds of http://gratisenergi.se/sparkgap.htm and Alexander V. Chernetsky and Yuri Galkin superstrong current generator and many other energy machines that use high current and low voltage.

Nikola Tela used a single-ended 1 turn transformer when transforming his high voltage to low voltage. What if we have been staring blindly at high voltage as a method of extracting free energy?

What if all that is needed is low voltage and a relay to create plasma current by breaking/closing the relay contacts? As in Ron Cole free energy generator?

Best Wishes, Hermes



Hi Simon,

Norm has not replied to my questions about the discovery of the tiny atom Tauonium.

Is it possible to exctract free energy from the Tauonium atom? and is very strong magnetic field like in hot fusion necessary?

or could simply a magnetic field of many turns and much current and a hollow iron core be enough?

Best Wishes, Hermes



Hi Hermes,

AFAICT this Tauonium is simply a particle and antiparticle in orbit around each other. OK, saying "in orbit" isn't really a good term here, but it's the one usually used for bound states such as electrons around protons, and makes it acceptable to specify a size for the orbital. Difference here is that the orbital is around 3.5 orders of magnitude smaller than the Hydrogen atom.

If you bind such a particle and antiparticle together in an orbital, the properties cancel and you get no net charge or net anything other than mass and energy. Thus this tauonium won't have magnetic properties, in the same way that positronium (electron and positron in mutual orbit) has no net charge or magnetic effects. You only see the +ve and -ve charges when you get really close to them.

Thus as regards magnetic properties, and what you can do with them, this will work the same as a neutral Hydrogen atom or positronium. The main difference will be the density of the matter, with Tauonium being about 1e+10 times denser than normal matter (and of course only available in very small amounts close to the accelerators that make it). That extreme density and small size, together with the lack of being able to hold it in a magnetic bottle, means that you won't be able to hold the stuff anyway.

For low-voltage and relays, bear in mind that breaking that low-voltage high current circuit results in high voltage across the breaks because of the inductance, and thus produces sparks. Reduce the capacitance across the gap to get the highest voltage in the sparks. Again, not OU unless you trigger something else such as nuclear fission, which of course can happen if you get the materials right and the conditions right.

So there's the problem of dealing with Tauonium: making the stuff is currently only possible on a chance basis, and the yield will likely be very low (they may not be able to reach that 5-sigma threshold to be able to say they've reliably identified it). If you have made it, then you can't hold something so small, dense, and with no net charge, so it'll escape your experiment. Possibly it may last a while if the orbit stabilises the tau and antitau, more likely it will decay in a small fraction of a second. Given the cost of the kit required to make it, and the energy needed to run that kit, you'd really need a massive yield to break even let alone get free energy, and that's if there was any way to get more energy out of it than you put in, and there's no obvious asymmetry there, at the moment.

Maybe not a good candidate to work on....

Best regards, Simon
