    摘要: A circuit for generating electrical energy is disclosed. The circuit uses a pulse generator in combination with a conductor. Waste heat can be converted to usable energy due to a cooling effect of the circuit on the conductor. A resultant energy applied to a load is larger than the energy supplied by the pulse generator due to the absorption of external energy by the conductor.

    摘要: This proposed system provides a method to generate electrical power for space-based orbiting satellites, probes, stations, habitations, and interplanetary missions. Electricity is generated by collecting the flow of ionized plasma in the solar system for low earth applications and in the solar wind beyond the earth's magnetosphere, then directing the plasma through a channel using the principle of magneto-hydrodynamics (MHD). The channel has conducting electrodes on two sides and a magnetic field directed orthogonally to the plasma flow direction. This results in an electrical current to power spacecraft functions such as batteries, communications, propulsion, guidance, navigation and control. This MHD generator has the potential of providing higher power generation density (e.g., watts/kg) for spacecraft than photo-voltaic panels. The design includes a control system to maintain voltage quality, regulate electromagnet power and control ion inlet scoop RF frequency and voltage in response to changing space ionized plasma conditions.

    摘要: A circuit for generating electrical energy is disclosed. The circuit uses a pulse generator in combination with a tube having a cavity therein. The tube can have material therein, such as solid material or fluid passing therethrough. A thyristor or other negative resistance is in series with the tube to increase a change of voltage with respect to time. A resultant energy applied to a load is larger than the energy supplied by the pulse generator due to the absorption of external energy by the tube.

    摘要: A circuit for cooling is disclosed. The circuit uses a pulse generator in combination with a conductor. A cooling effect of the circuit on the conductor can be used and can be used in conjunction with a Carnot or Stirling engine. A resultant energy applied to a load is larger than the energy supplied by the pulse generator due to the absorption of external energy by the conductor.

    摘要: A body force per unit mass acting on mobile charge carriers within a first electrically conducting material is configured to induce at least one region of accumulation of charge within at least a portion of the first material. The magnitude of the associated change in the voltage between two given points within the first material is a function of the relevant electrical properties of the material. A second electrically conducting material can be electrically coupled to the first material via a first electrical contact. The relevant electrical properties of the second material can be configured to be different to the relevant electrical properties of the first material. The voltage difference between the two points in the first material can be different to the voltage difference between two equivalent points in the second material. The difference in the voltage difference can be employed to increase the voltage of mobile charge carriers within a portion of an open or closed electrical circuit relative to another portion of said circuit. A voltage conversion apparatus and method can be used to convert thermal energy into electrical energy, for example.
