SEMP Electronmagnetic Generator

Here is RM-S's take on it:

(He reckons it's basically a Bearden MEG, with a different form-factor and no permanent magnet)

BTW, Navid , I understand that electromagnetic free-energy machines are deemed to be outside the remit of this forum.

This seems to be a patent :

Thanks Alan. Here it is on Google Patents:

Still Pending in the US.

I guess by "1769% efficiency" they mean a CoP of 17.69

For anyone unfamiliar, this is the Rexresearch page on the MEG:

Not entirely, just need to keep the thread in the proper off topic forum, so no harm done. We allow discussion specially if some interesting data is available.

Thanks. I wasn't going to bother posting any more in the thread, in case it was closed.

OK - so this device is very much like a Mag Amp. These devices have largely fallen out of use, but old geezers (like me) who worked in, erm, certain industries, were quite familiar with them. And, yes, they do have some peculiar properties...

Magnetic amplifier - Wikipedia

A cold form of nuclear fusion and electrical generation from the "sea of energy in which we reside" could be connected.

I did a mass and energy balance on data in Santilli's intermediate fusion and on AquaFuel. In both cases the mass balance with applied stoichiometry produced nuclear reaction equations. These were not borderline to uncertainty measurements of transmutation, rather the mass balances for the reaction equation for Santilli's intermediate fusion accounts for 99.9 percent of elements in the equation. I repeat: the certainty is with 3 orders of magnitude. I would help anyone who wants to check my math and assumptions. It can confidently be stated that a form of cold fusion occurs that has been repeated numerous times with high certainty. So, what is the problem?

One can use the stoichiometry in connection with Einstein's equation for energy to predict the energy production from atomic mass loss in course of the reaction equation of Santilli's intermediate fusions and one can compare that to the actual observed heat production. Only about 4/10,000 ths of the predicted free energy was observed as heat. So, the problem is this cold form of fusion is producing something other than kinetic energy and whatever is produced is the majority of mass/energy product formed from the nuclear mass loss. At least some of that product exists as a fuel as evidenced by energy balance on AquaFuel.

It has been over 4 years since I first disclosed the above information in this forum. It is my opinion that the majority of the mass/energy product formed from the nuclear mass loss in this cold form of nuclear fusion is a fuel. In other word there exists a sea of fuel about us. The same cold form of fusion also produces dark energy via blackholes, and the same dark energy is produced in any process that produces entropy. (A best guess opinion of mine).

Hence my opinion is that it may be possible to harvest the dark energy which exist as a sea of potential energy (fuel) about us. I have looked at many devices to find a dark energy to electrical energy converter as yet unsuccessfully. But then that's why we have this forum isn't it.

It is scientific illiteracy to talk about "efficiency" over 100%. People who write such things show themselves to be ignorant fools.

They appear to be using the Wiegand effect in the core.

At least some of the many patents outline a heat treatment process, on the core, that involves "white coal". This is quite an old fashioned method for carburizing. It means there will be a different B-H curve for the outer shell of the iron rod (giving it higher hysteresis), as compared to the inner soft iron.

It has been mentioned elsewhere that this device bears a striking resemblance to a drawing on an old (1914) patent by Constantino de Buforn Jacas.

I've posted a link to a 1960 copy of Paul Mali's textbook "Magnetic Amplifiers" in the useful book thread. Not much has been published on the topic since the middle of last century, so many people have forgotten about these things.

You might find information in some second hand book stores, but these now seem to be asking silly prices for old technical books (at least in the UK). e.g. There is a guy on Amazon Marketplace advertising a 1957 copy of William Geyger's excellent "Magnetic-amplifier Circuits" for over £400.

(I've had a 1954 copy of Geyger's book for a few decades - but that was picked up, at a sensible price, during one of my many past trips to the Book Town of Hay-on-Wye.)

There's one on Ebay for a sensible price- though postage from the US to Europe to a bit steep.

I've found that second hand book prices in the US have generally stayed sensible, but the postage seems to have gone silly instead.

About 20 years ago I bought multiple volumes from the complete works of Irving Langmuir off a US second-hand book dealer, and as they were sent surface mail the cost was quite reasonable. They took quite a while to arrive - but I was willing to wait. I don't know whether US dealers now assume everyone wants books to arrive quickly, so use airmail.

When they arrived, I discovered the books had been originally in the Smithsonian library. I guess they thought nobody wanted to read that stuff any more

n.b. Scans of the complete works are now available via the shadow libraries...

Continuing on the theme of Mag Amps, I came upon this excellent hobbyist website while looking for something else, and found a good example of how simple it is to create the mag-amp effect:

I was impressed to observe typical power gains of 15 to 25 using the two transformer circuit but, after adding a couple of silicon rectifier diodes to the circuit as shown above, I started to observe amazing power gains of well over 1000!!

Robert Murray-Smith's videos are very interesting. I admit to being one of his “fans”. I share his doubts regarding this new Korean device. However, there is a very simple test to see if an energy generator is working or not: If the device really works, all you have to do is inject at the entrance part of the current produced at the output. If it doesn't work, it's because we made a measurement error, or a design error, or both at the same time.

Let's admit that few free energy machines pass this test successfully.

And even in the case where a device produces net energy, and not excess energy, such as our solid-state fusion diodes, the hypothesis of a chemical energy source must still be eliminated. It's easier said than done.

Let's take the example of the famous device of the Clarendon Pile in Oxford, which I had discussed during a previous meeting on LENR co-organized by Airbus Industrie in Toulouse: even the excellent Robert Murray-Smith makes a mistake in this video about Clarendon pile: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a-Ru0odwhmc

indeed, it rightly the average current is of the order of a nanoampere.

(I had calculated it exactly from the electrical capacity of a 5mm diameter sphere discharged twice per second, I no longer have the figure in mind, but it was of the order of a nanoampere) But it this is a nanoampere at 2 kV which make two milliwatts. (I also did the calculation considering the height to which the spheres had been raised for 180 years, and I obtained a notable fraction of the Earth-Moon distance) Of course, there is an elastic rebound, metal on metal , but this rebound has diminished over the last century, because a blotter has been placed on the bell to stifle the jingle.

The device was manufactured before, and the frequency of the ringing was probably higher at first, but let's keep the date of 1840 and the frequency of 2 hertz.

The device has been operating in a documented manner for almost 184 years, which makes 184x365x24 = 1611840 hours so the energy spent during this period of time is 3223680 mWh or 3.223680 kWh

In Ampere-hour this is obviously 1611840 nAh or 1.61 Ah

Let’s compare with the energy stored in commercial batteries.

AA Ni-Metal hydride battery: 2.350Ah

Car battery: 50 Ah for a small passenger car.

The conclusion I drew in my presentation was the following:

1) This is not a Zamboni battery (the Zamboni type dry batteries used during the last war to power the infrared glasses and night vison intensifiers of Allied and German snipers worked well, but they discharged very quickly, including during open circuit storage.)

2) The chemical energy contained in the two tubes covered with sulfur is clearly insufficient to maintain the activity of the battery for 184 years, including imagining the action of bacteria transforming the sulfur into gaseous sulfur compounds, which could be dissolve in the battery and oxidize the metal layers. (sulfur has no odor, but if you touch it with your bare hand, it will quickly give off the famous “sulfur” smell)

No studies have been conducted on the sublimation of sulfur. Theoretically, the cyclic allotropic form S8 should be able to sublimate, at very low speed.

The manganese dioxide used in Zamboni batteries (and also in all the commercial batteries that you put in the toys given to your children at Christmas is a PROTONIC CONDUCTOR (yes, like our dear palladium!)

Could it be possible that the unknown constructor of the Clarendon Pile had discovered by chance the means of forming a Solid-State Fusion Diode, and that the solution to the problem which brings us together in this forum was found before the eyes of all the greats minds of the past century, from JJ Thomson to Rutherford, without forgetting our master, Professor Josephson?

This is the hypothesis that guides our work on Solid-State Fusion Diodes.

This is a previous patent - this time from 2018.

WO2019045395A2 - Alternating current power generator capable of adjusting frequency and voltage - Google Patents

The above patent seems to be for a DC to AC inverter, which uses the inductors to smooth the output waveform. There seems to be no claim that the DC power entering the circuit (unit labelled 110) is increased by the time it leaves as AC (at the unit labelled 130).
