New tests done today,
Much increased gas productio n, not able to measure it but is clearly visible better than when pulsing from the variac...
wish my motor was 2 hp instead of 1/3HP i could push up to the limit with the pulses where the alternato r stops the motor down.
The alternator is not modified except it is not regulated so it put out more than 30 v controlled from zero from the variac...
The secondary in the transform er heats up just a little and the diodes don't heats up to fell, 1200v 30A rated 2 in series...
I solved that problem by adding a 10kohm resistor in parallel with the primary, and between drain and source there is a snubber 68nf capacitor with resistors in series, i believe something like 20 ohms maybe 70, i don't remember, this last are heating up, a lot meaning that the discharge pulse is charging the capacitor and not the resistor in parallel with the primary, however the igbt doesn't heat almost nothing, its rated 96 ampers 600v igbt I burned 5 yesterday .... it costs me around 5 euro each
I'm going to find a balance between the dissipated energy in this resistor and the one at the snubber...the higher the frequency the higher is the dissipation... I thought was possible to run totally unprotected hahahahah not a good idea!!! The thing is to accomplish something you need to expend something to keep the things working as they intend to.
Now i need to see if the diode is actually switching and how the things are going, change the core, waters, change the tubes, adding coils in series.. ground... etc... but i would like to determine a parameter for compariso n between results.. .
The DC between the cell is the same as the ac reading... what doest it mean?
If i could i make a video to show it, but i lost my cell phone and it was my only camera..
This is a setup like what stanley meyer had to start with!
