SQM Replication Project Update
25-12-05.
Hi Everyone, Merry Christmas. Below
is nearly two months of hard work
and a lot of study of Mr Searl's (SEG)
Magnet conditioning method, a device
I have nicknamed "Medusa". This
device is designed to output a sine
wave and have a capacitive discharge
at the zero crossing as Mr Rosenthal
said back in his emails nearly 12
months ago. This device will give
much more control over the
conditioning coils. Here is how it
works, the control board is
connected to a function generator at
the desired frequency, in this case
we want 50Hz (Australian Mains
Frequency). The control board is
separating the frequency into a flip
flop switch for the IGBT's, so if an
input of 50Hz is input the IGBT's
will switch to an on state of 25 Hz
each at 180 Degrees out of phase so
one is on while the other one is off
and vise versa. The two IGBT's at
the front of the device switch two
separate coils each. I currently
have two Car Batteries, 12V and using
about 6Amps here but can change it
if this is not enough. When the IGBT
in the picture on your right hand
side is switched on the IGBT at the
back with the big black heat sink is
switched on. The power source is the
capacitive bank below in the next
pic.
Warning: There is high voltage from
the mains here in this circuit and
it is very dangerous. We are not
responsible for injury to ones self
if this circuit is attempted.
I have rewound the Conditioning
coil, I have now put three coils on
the outside. The Capacitive
discharge coil is 360 turns of 1mm
enamelled wire. This is the inside
coil. The next coil out is 180 Turns
of 1mm enamelled wire and the third
coil is the same 180 turns of 1mm
Enamelled wire. The two outside
coils are to produce the sine wave,
so one coil has a south pole out the
top of the tube when its on and the
other coil will have a north pole
out the top of the tube when it is
switched on. When the coil that has
a south pole out the top of the tube
is switched on the Capacitor bank is
switched on with the same polarity,
(South pole out the top of the
tube). Now many will say why not
just use the one IGBT. Well it is
for flexibility. The frequency in
the form of a sine wave can, with a
few small adjustments, be used to
bring the magnets into a resonance
if needed and other frequencies can
also be used if needed.
These IGBT's are awesome, they
switch so accurately and the power
they can switch is unreal. They are
rated at 1200V at 600 Amps and have
a repetitive peak collector Current
of 1200Amps and the total Power
dissipation is 3900Watts, in other
words these things are grunt boxes.
;O) Really they are a bit of over
kill for the application currently
when compared to the Video with Mr
Sweet and Mr Bearden when they were
using 200V @ 1600uf.
I have to further test this setup
but I do expect some good results
from it and hope to have some
results up soon. I am also looking
more to the SEG conditioning as a
possible alternative to the SQM
conditioning. There is a difference
between the two and this would be
significant to the operation of the
SQM in my opinion.
I want to thank many people out
there for their support again I
never expected so much support on
this project. I was speechless when
I got an email form a long time
supporter of the project that had a
fantastic video attached to the
email.

to see Andrey's fantastic work.
Thanks to Dale to for your fantastic
Scientific discussions. To everyone
else, if I have not replied to your
email I am sorry. I try to get to
everyone of them.
Well more coming soon as always.
