In
the 1860s, James Clerk Maxwell, a Scottish physicist, predicted the existence of radio waves, and in 1886 Heinrich Rudolph
Hertz, a German physicist, demonstrated that rapid variations of electric current could be projected into space in the form
of radio waves similar to those of light and heat.
Heinrich
Hertz calculated that an electric current swinging very rapidly back and forth in a conducting wire would radiate electromagnetic
waves into the surrounding space (today we call such a wire an "antenna"). Using an antenna wire Hertz created and detected
EM oscillations in his lab, using an electric spark, in which the current oscillates rapidly (which is how lightning creates
the crackling noise we hear on a radio detector). Today we call these types of waves "radio waves".
Alternating
Current
19th Century
Danish scientist Hans Oersted discovered that passing an electric current through a wire created magnetism. Several years later English scientist Michael Faraday proved the opposite true i.e. when magnets are exposed
to a coil of wire electricity is created. The key to this magnetic dynamo
is movement, i.e., when a magnet or magnetic field passes in or out of the coil an electric current will register on a meter,
rapid back-an-forth movement produces a useful flow of electricity.
This alternating
movement of magnet against coil is the basis of today’s alternating current (AC)
Antenna
Based Energy Accumulators
Can antenna based
radiant energy converters produce usable amounts of electrical energy?
Yes.
What is wrong with
these types free energy accumulators, what is their fundamental flaw, can it be fixed?
Yes, they represent
incomplete electronic systems.
Can they produce more
energy out than in?
Yes, if designed
properly, thou this question is somewhat retarded when thinking in terms of implosive—explosive energy manipulation.
Can you explain your
energy concept in simple terms?
Yes; I will demonstrate
this line of reasoning in the Infinite Energy Guide presented at the base of this article.
For starters,
Tesla viewed the Earth as a negative electric pole and the sun as a positive pole of an electrode; therefore it may help to
think of these antenna systems as solar-electric diodes, primarily because they comprise positive negative junctions.
The difference
is, conventional solar-electric panels consist of a substrate coated with crystalline silicon.
Conversely Tesla's solar panel is a shiny metal plate with a transparent coating or insulating material that today
might be a plastic dielectric film.
Place one
of these solar-antenna panels up into the air and wire it to one side of a capacitor, next wire the other side of the capacitor
to a good earth ground. The ground can be established by driving a length of copper tubing into the ground.
According
to the literature the energy from the sun should now be charging the capacitor. The
larger the area of the insulated plate, the more energy accumulated. Wire a switching
device across the capacitor, e.g. spark gap electrodes and the energy stored within the capacitor can be discharged at rhythmic
intervals. Now there exists an electric output!
Is Tesla
telling us that it is that simple to get electrical energy from the environment?
Is this
an ordinary solar panel, does it need sunshine to operate?
No, it is
something more because it also produces power at night!
Isn’t
this considered impossible according to mainstream science?
Well, of
course it is, as are all new ideas.
Tesla patented
his free-energy receiver in 1901 as An Apparatus for the Utilization of Radiant Energy. The patent refers to the sun as well
as other sources of radiant energy, e.g. cosmic rays. The device functioning
at night is explained in terms of the availability of nighttime cosmic rays. Tesla also refers to the ground as "a vast reservoir
of negative electricity."
How Tesla’s Radiant Energy Receiver
works
An electrical potential exists between the
elevated plate (positive) and the ground (negative) plate, energy is accumulated and builds within the capacitor and, after
"a suitable time interval the accumulated energy will "manifest itself in a powerful discharge" which can do work. According to Tesla, the capacitor should be "of considerable electrostatic capacity and its dielectric
made of the best quality mica, for it has to withstand potentials that could rupture a weaker dielectric
