SQM Replication Project Update 14-05-05.

This is the first ever PUBLIC replication attempt of the SQM Conditioning process that is in the SQM video with Mr Sweet and Mr Bearden. Although not yet successful some great results did come out of the attempt. The new magnets did give different results compared to the last magnets that I broke which is very interesting. I hope very soon to have a small output even if it is not more than the input.

I am still close to the first attempt of conditioning the magnets but a few small things I am not yet happy with: 1/ Time to discharge the capacitor is still causing the SCR/Thyristor to latch. I am still thinking my direction here may not be right. I have briefly tested the SCR oscillator circuit with no success. This is what I need. Capacitor to discharge and to turn off the SCR with back EMF. This could be a single discharge of the capacitor but is more likely to be a discharge in oscillations other wise this does not explain the bulb in the video oscillating in brightness. 2/ Increase if possible the resonance affect at the top of the large coil, the blade is waving or oscillating but is is fairly lightly oscillating. There is a bit of a delicate balance in this setup for the conditioning. Tuning and adjusting after time will give the desired results here and I hope we get the results with the magnets after this is all done. I am thinking more and more that it will. I found these quite good articles about magnets also there is some mentions of instabilities of the magnets and that's what I think we are going after. Click Here. Something I am finding interesting is the amount of pages on the net that have been taken down when you search for "Spin wave instability magnon distribution for parallel pumping". Interesting ;o) Lucky I have a few books about this phenomena.  

Here you can see the pulse to the conditioning coil. It is an ac pulse which is a result of the RxC time constant. The Resistance times the Capacitance is the time constant. In this case the Capacitor is 1500 UF and the Resistance of the Conditioning coil is 10.7 Ohms. So this Discharge is 16.05 mS. This is about 62.3 Hz. The Math is simply 1000/16.05=62.3 Hz. The best page on the net to work this out is http://www.cvs1.uklinux.net/cgi-bin/calculators/time_const.cgi. The page for the magnet supplier I am using is http://www.magnet.au.com/.

This picture didn't really come out as good as I would have liked but nearly shows the zero crossing of the 60Hz pulse. I will get a better one and replace this one.

These are some documents I have been sent by Robert Michaels, about magnetics. This is old school physics that is very hard to find these days. Thanks Robert.
