SQM Replication Project Update 21-02-07.

Hi Everyone, it has been a while since my last update again. I am a bit stuck on what should be a simple problem. Revising the information we have gathered to date.

This is the Wave we need:

In this Wave configuration we have one wave over the top of the other. It is not cancelling the wave of the other Wave but is in fact stopping the Magnetic field from ever going negitave. Sounds like it should be simple to achieve this wave. I can say it is not as easy as is looks. I have rebuilt Medusa and tried to make it simpler and smaller in design. I did have the last version of Medusa pulsing with some nice high amperage sine waves. I was getting 400 Amps @ 112 Volts but it was not stable and IGBT's blew due to several reasons. In an effort to make Medusa more stable and most importantly reliable and safe it has become a bit more complicated even though I wanted to make it more simple.

I was researching the IGBT Driver design on the net and came across this document: IGBT-Driver design.pdf

I have tried to make this concept work but had issues partly due t o bad design on my part and a few unexpected problems. I think my idea with High Power IGBT's may not have been the best road to go down now and High Power Mosfetts may have been better. I have spent a lot of money on IGBT's and will continue with this idea at the moment. We all know the old saying "Practice makes perfect".

So far the below Pictures are what I have got. The Driver circuit is working but not yet 100% right. I need some extra work on it yet.

A few other things to think about are the Magnetic field Flux Modulations. Several Concepts are here all in line with the Motional E-Field from Mr Sweet and Mr Hooper.  I think this first Animation is the way we want the Flux Modulation to work in the SQM. The Flux is directed into the coil in a the motion of the V x B Field or better known as The Motional E-Field.

The below Animation is also a possibility but I think is much less likely.

 Unlike the original Animation I put up on the SQM Theory Page: SQM_Theory

I now believe the Motion of the E-Field is in a different direction from the current conventional method of Using the Magnetic Flux of a Magnet. Check out the link here Chapter 5, Figure 5 and 6: Click Here.

In the last few months, I have tried to get professional help from several Electronics Engineers and Experts in the field. I have had help from many people from the web and it is excellent help but the putting the advise into practice is not always easy. I want to thank Dave from ctglabs.com and Mike for their excellent advise and technical information to get me to the stage I am at now.

I must apologise about being so long between Updates in the last few months. I have been very busy with work and all, like everyone is these days. I also have been a bit short on cash so these things do take a bit of time in these situations. I will do my best to get these updates up faster and more frequent for you all.

Well more coming soon as always.
