        One unusual feature of this conference was the integration of conventional alternative energy knowledge with advanced energy concepts, all driven by the legacy left to us from Nikola Tesla.  Its local base demonstrated a good prototype for what can be done in communities worldwide.  Volunteers from many walks of life contributed to overcoming obstacles, making the conference and related public events successful.

Thursday July 7

Brian Yetzer: 3-Dimensional Printing

        As a professor of Media Arts & Education at the Art Institute of Philadelphia, Brian has known for a long time that we can use digital art techniques to create 3-D film with nothing physical behind it.  But now it's possible to create an actual 3D model, printed from digital files. 

        The printer layers material at the micron level to create an object, and can print in plastic, steel, or even chocolate syrup!  Most 3D printers cost around $20,000, but Makerbot in Brooklyn now makes a printer for about $1300.

        It's possible to do 3D scanning, like from a traditional sculpture, and then modify the model before printing.  Materials can be mixed or layered.  Anything can be printed, including auto parts, clothing, and personal effects.  Many levels of print shops are possible, so sometimes jobs can be outsourced through specialists in other countries including Netherlands , or local prints can be made, depending on requirements.

        This has a lot of significance in terms of designing energy related prototypes, since they can now be printed quickly and cheaply, which is an improvement on the former processes that involved waiting for funding, machining, and polishing. 

        Students were asked to come up with Tesla inspired functional product designs that could be sold online.  Criteria were developed. 

Jeff Behary: Pancake Tesla Coils

http://www.electrotherapymuseum.com/

        Pancake Coils are a relatively obscure topic.  Nicholas Callan was an Irish Catholic priest who developed an induction coil around 1836.  Sam Richie invented a flat coil that produced large sparks around 1868.  Early Tesla coils were oil-filled, very heavy, and unsafe.  Thompson put the first coil on the market in 1895.

        Starting in 1896, Kinraide set up Tesla coils that put out exquisite spark patterns.  He got caught up in the death of Philadelphia inventor John Keely, as his motors were willed to him.  He found evidence of fraud, demonstrated the motor at his home in Boston , and asked that nobody go to the press.  Someone did, many other complications came up, and Kinraide's research stopped.  About 500 glass photographs of discharges and a lot of equipment were left behind in the basement of his house.  Some of the equipment was still operable 100 years later.  How Jeff found and recovered these items is quite a story in itself.

        Many X-ray machines were built and sold using Tesla coils.  Even Edison got involved with those.  There were some X-ray lights marketed for a while in the mid-1890s.  The first commercial Tesla coil was marketed by Elihu Thompson.

There is also a lot of history regarding the use of Tesla coils medically.

Bob Buus: Forefathers of Radio

        The history of radio really begins with Benjamin Franklin, who made the original guess about which way electrical charge flows, and got it backwards.  Samuel Morse conceived the telegraph aboard a ship returning from Europe in 1832.  Alfred Vail significantly improved it.  Edison invented the "inductorium" in 1874.  This eventually led to invention of the "etherscope" which was essentially a radio receiver.  Oliver Lodge created a type of primitive radio system in 1893.  All this leads up to Tesla and ends with Marconi, with significant developments each year in the 1890s.

Michael Manning: Batteries, EVs, and Bioelectromagnetism

        Sixteen years of research on batteries at Exide formed the background for this presentation.  Several types can be used for Electric Vehicles (EV).  Nickel-iron was originally developed by Edison .  Zinc air is ok, but not great.  Nickel-zinc corrodes easily characterized by dendritic growth.  Some nuclear batteries look promising but haven't been deployed.  Sodium-sulfur has been used some in Japan for load leveling.

        Nickel-Metal Hydride (NiMH) has twice the density of lead-acid.  Oil companies have stopped production by buying and sitting on the patent until 2014.  It was used in some Chevy and Toyota models, and doesn't lose capacity even after 15 years!

        Sodium nickel fluoride batteries have 3-4x the energy density of lead-acid.  These have been manufactured in several countries, have to be kept hot, and are very expensive.  Lithium iron phosphate needs special manufacturing conditions and thus is expensive.

        Tesla invented an early electrotherapeutic system taking the output of Tesla coils through animal limbs.  Some hand-cranked systems were available through the 20s.  Then the government stepped in.  Ultraviolet wands with argon in the glass electrodes also disappeared.  Supposedly there was a "lack of positive data" according to the FDA.

        TENS devices are widely available now.  Studies show positive effects in neural repair.  Bone repair by embedding electrodes in bone has been researched in Japan and by Robert Becker, and looks promising so far.

        Cancer therapy is very controversial.  Royal Rife was mentioned.  Several others have been shut down as well.  Antone Priore combined low frequencies with audio and VHF in a large plasma tube.  He was able to keep animals alive after they were infected with protozoa.

        Manning worked at Temple University with Russian high-frequency equipment on animal tests.  They were able to kill cells by heating them to 47 degrees C.  The cell fragments would end up killing off other cancer cells elsewhere in the body.  Grant proposals for further development were submitted to NIH & other agencies, and were never answered.

Dr. Michael Pravica: Tesla's Final Victories

        He spoke of Tesla's many achievements and his primary motivation to make life better for all humanity.  Tesla was consistently thinking far ahead of his time with a global view.  It would be possible to devote an entire conference to any one of his inventions.  Highlights include the Electric Induction Motor, Alternating Current Motor, Fluorescent Lights, Tesla Coil, Radio, Robotic Control, and the Tesla Turbine.

        Tesla Coils (TC) were originally designed to approximate the frequency of sunlight in 1891.  Rotary AC generators began to fly apart at 20000 cps.  The TC was essential to the development of modern particle accelerators.

        Radio can be found in tuned circuit patents 593138 and 645576.

Gaylord Olson: High Altitude Wind Power and Aircraft Concepts

        Wind power is proportional to the cube of wind velocity.  Velocity is higher at high altitude.  So there's a high production capacity.  Towers are not needed, and weather is a bit better.  Several companies were profiled, including TU Delft, Skymill, Altaeros, KiteGen, Kitenergy, Ampyx, SwissKitePower, and EnerKite.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hight_altitude_wind_power

Competitive commercial grade systems may be about 5 years off.

        Later in the afternoon Olson shared several concepts related to vertical takeoff aircraft.  Some of these can be made fairly efficient.  There are many reasons to use two coordinated aircraft for lifting rather than a helicopter, including cost and safety.  One possible use for this system would be short-range air transport of passengers in a sort of coach lifted by the planes.

Dan North: Internal Combustion Engine (ICE) to Plug-In Electric (PIE) Conversion

        Dan likes the acronym PIE.  EVs can be very efficient, as if you were getting 67 – 95 miles per gallon.  He says that 40% of global warming is caused by CO emissions – 70% of that is vehicles, and 70% of vehicles are passenger models.  So we have a lot of potential to cut emissions with this technology.  The "low hanging fruit" is pickup trucks, which usually don't need to go cross-country and often haul heavy things at around 45 mph in a 40-mile range.  This is an ideal situation for EVs.

        The American average is 1.9 cars per family.  One in each family could be converted to a commuter car.  Many kits are available.  Pricing is about $3-6000.  Most don't have transmission plates, which are better obtained locally.  Automatic transmissions are not good for EVs because they are always dragging on an engine.  Manual transmissions or simplified 2-speed units are much better.

Jenny Isaacs: Electric Vehicles (EV)

www.buckscountyrenewables.com

        Her family's first conversion was a 1991 Dodge Colt from a fleet of 10 in Florida made from new cars of the time as a response to the first Gulf War.  Consumer interest is now increasing.  They're plugged in to recharge.  The original plan had been to use wind power.  An EV is ideal for delivery trucks & light commuting.  Range is always a problem.  So are batteries.  Lead-acid batteries should not be drained entirely, which is a situation that can often occur with EVs.  They die slowly when you do that.

        EVs once outnumbered gas vehicles in the USA .  At the beginning of the 1900s there were problems with range and infrastructure for gasoline.

        There was another wave of interest in the 1970s.  Through the 1990s all the major auto manufacturers were making EVs.  Those models were all discontinued.  Tesla Car Co. has now shamed the big manufacturers into getting back to EVs.

        Large Format Nickel Metal Hydride batteries were used in the 90s.  They get 100-150 miles per charge, and the remaining ones are still working today.  It's not a technological problem.  People are being legally enjoined from doing further research.  Chevron Texaco has a controlling interest in the patent.  Lithium-ion batteries are thus a focus of current research.

        The Chevy Volt and Nissan Leaf are getting a lot of attention now.  For some reason, Nissan doesn't want to sell in PA.  The soon to be released Ford Focus EV is very promising.  They will build it on the same assembly line as their gas model.

        Electric motors are much simpler and more durable than ICEs.  Overall ICE efficiency is 25%; electric 85%.  Also EV is favorable in terms of greenhouse gas emissions since those are more easily controlled at power plants.

        V2G = Vehicular to Grid.  A car is a storage for excess produced electricity, since they are usually charged at night and power plants have to generate at all times.

Mark Barlow: Solar Photovoltaic Technologies

         "We've all seen the powerpoints – they're obviously not solving the problem.""  Mark had built an innovative tube controlled Tesla Coil for last year's contest.  He has worked on many solar arrays nationwide and in other countries.  "There are no energy solutions, there are just trade-offs."

        An average person uses about 4 kw-h per day running all devices.  1 kw solar array: 6 – 165 watt panels.  At about $3/watt solar is definitely viable.  Above $7/watt it cannot compete with conventional utilities.  Kits work well for consumers.  Small "plug and play"" inverters are now available which should help a lot.

Stoyan Sarg: Field Propulsion and Plasma Physics

        Around the beginning of the 20th century there were big changes in physics models, which are still controversial.  Mathematics can describe the physical reality, but it can also describe realities that don't exist.  Tesla had a correct understanding of physics.  In 1915 he said an airship could be sent anywhere in the world electrically.

        Gravity is propagated by the Ether.  If Ether is rarefied, gravity will be changed and an object should move.  Magnetic fields demonstrate this principle of action at a distance.  Then there is supergravitation (SG). 

        Ether had been mistakenly abandoned.  Cosmic Lattice (CL) is a unique underlying geometric structure of space.  It explains many forces such as the Casimir force.  A cosmic lattice can be modeled.  Forces are arranged tetrahedrally.  The center is not stable and always oscillates.  Spatial Precession Momentum (SPM) and Node Resonance Momentum (NRM) are parts of the lattice phenomena.

        Supergravitational Law defines attractive and repulsive strong forces (SG forces) inversely proportional to the cube of distance in pure empty space.  Two fundamental particles form with length and frequency associated with the Planck length and frequency.

        Black holes are just superdense matter.  There are two types of prisms of two intrinsic matter substances with left-hand and right-hand internal twisting:  Axial SG field, Rotational SG component, length ratio 2:3.  These develop into helical structures crystallized from the two types of prisms, and form helically.

        Electron is an oscillating 3-body system of helical structures with two proper frequencies.  Oscillates at the Compton frequency equal to the SPM frequency of the CL node.  There is a force at the center of the electron.

        Static pressure of the cosmic lattice is important in the Newtonian sense.  Pressure of the cosmic lattice is everywhere.   Atoms and nuclear chains get double folded.  Now we have an Atlas of Atomic Nuclear Structure as a derivative of BSM-SG theory.  This explains the raw and column pattern of the Periodic table, valences, Pauli exclusion principles, Hund's rule, oxidation number, nuclear spin (NMR), p-type of electronic orbits, radioactivity, and other properties.

        Conclusion: A temporal disturbance of the self-synchronization of the CL nodes around a solid object should affect its gravitational and inertial mass with simultaneous disturbance of the light propagation and EM waves in the surrounding zone.  An asymmetrically disturbed self-synchronization around a solid object will cause a directional change of gravitation and inertial mass of the object and surrounding gas molecules.

        A properly activated neutral plasma should contain ion-electron pairs.

        Heterodyne Resonance Mechanism (HRM) could be invoked in a neutral plasma excited by a comparatively low frequency AC field.  Either hydrogen or helium would be suitable for invoking the HRM.  This can be demonstrated with a plasma actuator in a laboratory, which will rotate on its own when activated with an AC voltage.  A process of experiments is needed to verify which Unified Theory is correct.

        Every cubic cm of space contains 3.8 KWH of hidden energy – this is a primary source of nuclear energy.  There is some implication that energy can be imparted and actually increase with time in some cases, as in the "Tesla Tertiary" which is an extra coil placed on top of a normal Tesla coil.

        Stoyan Sarg's books are available through Amazon:

Field Propulsion by Control of Gravity: Theory and Experiments

Basic Structures of Matter: Supergravitation Unified Theory

Fran McCabe: Gyroscopic Propulsion

        Air powered cars should be mentioned a lot more often.  Tata Motors & NDI are two of the main companies.  They came up with a valving arrangement to cut off air at a critical point, and also simplified cylinder design.  Direct mechanical drive is more efficient.  By contrast, electric vehicles can end up dead on the streets at inconvenient times.  Fran has built 5 air-powered vehicles.  Wind power is good for making compressed air.  You can get power needed and power available curves to meet with this technology.

        Gyroscopes are well-known to space enthusiasts because they help with satellite guidance.  They can do a lot in propulsion systems as well.  It could be said that they help with precession, which becomes vital to understand in this context.  Further technical details on precession and its importance to the process of invention are covered in a Tesla Academy podcast interview with Mr. McCabe.

Russell Anderson: Antigravity and Force Field Propulsion

World leader in consumer antigravity: www.appliedelectrogravitics.cowww.appliedelectrogravitics.co  m

        Antigravity is a misnomer – it should be called artificial gravity.  The Biefield-Brown effect takes the least amount of energy for the most amount of force.  Power for the lifter, properly called a beamship, is 1.3 mA, 40,000 V.  The device has a negative charge, and falls in the direction of a positive charge.  T. Townsend Brown found this in 1929 at the age of 17.  In 1959, at the GE space research center in King of Prussia PA, this work was confirmed.  

        Subquantum kinetics is a theory that can explain how this works.  Gravity should have two polarities, attracting and repelling.  These can be correlated to electric charge.  Negative charges can be gravity "hills".  Positive charges are thus "wells".  This creates waves in the Ether.  A device can be propelled along such a wave.  There's a relatively simple mathematical formula for it.

        Anderson was chosen to help with research on replicating the Searl Effect Generator (SEG).  It uses Neodymium, a rare earth element, which puts out an excess of electrons, and then makes them up quickly somehow.  Warning – once you start an SEG you can't stop it unless you put an oscillator next to it.

        Recommended books:

• Homemade Lightning by R.A. Ford says gravity originates in space itself.

• Ether Technology by Rho Sigma covers the subject well.

• Subquantum Kinetics by Dr. Paul LaViolette

Nelson Lim Chua: Physics of Resonance

        "Resonance is an active state of a stable particle causing a sharp maximum in the potential of absorption."

        Shooting a resonant wave at a wine glass saturates the material until a maximum limit of elasticity is reached.  Setup: signal generator, amplifier, speaker, audio guide (copper pipe), box with glass in it.  One can break the glass using sound, but long before that point, resonance is seen by a straw dancing around inside the glass.  Wireless transmission of electricity depends on resonance.  This is the next revolution of power transmission.

        Applying this concept at an electrical level produced Alternating Current.  Most coils are noisy and put out sparks.  For generation, there must be no disturbance to the public or interference with electronic equipment.  This demonstration unit was a simplistic crude working model of a wireless system.  Transmitting and receiving ends do not need to be identical.  The receiving end size for modern end users should be portable.

        On the transmitter, the secondary can also be called a resonator.  This primary is a single MOSFET which replaces the spark gap and isn't noisy.  Operates at 318 Khz, and the two coils are linked with a ground wire.  In Tesla's time, he used neon lamps to find when a pair of coils were in tune with each other.  On the transmitting end it's 18 volts, 10 on the receiving, meaning a 56% efficiency, which can be improved.

        Beyond the 3 gHz range it's less practical because atmosphere etc. absorbs the signals.  Useful range is only up to about 2.8 gHz.  There are conflicting reports on how much we're hurt by these frequencies.

        This system has great potential for remote wind generation sites.  It doesn't care where your electricity comes from – solar, hydroelectric, wind, etc.

Anya Petrovic: Tesla Metamorphosis

http://www.teslametamorphosis.com/ 

        Tesla waves are non-Hertzian and scalar.  They're clearly a type of energy that Tesla was working with at times.  The Tesla Coil is a molecular enhancer.  Tesla waves get stronger with distance.  They show up purple in enhanced energy photos, and tend to arrive before a healer uses them.  (There's a relevant comment within Tesla's Canadian Patent 142352)

        There is an endless quantity of this energy around us; the question is how to access it.  Results are fast, usually within 3 sessions one way or another.  The evolutionary aspect triggered and initiated with the Tesla Metamorphosis scalar waves is more important than the healing itself.  Frequencies appear to have intelligence, and intention is vital in working with them.  Colors are relevant to chakra meditation, where purple is characteristic of the crown.

        There are no certain movements or techniques.  It's very free system.  Some points on the body usually need touch.  This work refers extensively to Dr. Robert O. Becker.  Potentials are just beginning to be explored.
