Modern Power Engineering in the Light of the New Physical Representations and Technical Realizations. – A brief review

Abstract

The perspective hypothesizes and elaborations represented in the special science literature and directed on the search of the new sources which are based on the physical principles of the energy extraction from the surrounding space are illuminated in the brief review. The so named “without-fuel” generators as the convertors of the different views of energy of the ether are described. Their elaboration becomes the more and more perspective business for solution of the modern energy problems. Their technical projects are passing to the state of the industrial production. According to the physical signs of the principle effectiveness, heat generators, magnetic dynamic convertors, convertors of gravitational energy and, finally, electrodynamics alternators are distinguished among them. In comparison with heat generators, the class of alternators using permanent magnets is more numerous and diverse. Convertors of gravitational energy are, as a rule, perpetuum mobiles containing structural components in which falling vertically downward weights or water are rotating the wheel, producing useful work. The selected group of the without-fuel generators is the electrodynamics alternators, working as convertors of the electromagnetic energy from the ether of the surrounding space. The most interesting example of electrodynamics alternators is the transformer Tesla known to a wide range of specialists. Its distinctive feature is an unusually high energy conversion coefficient (k>1000), much higher than the transformation ratio due to the inductive coupling between its windings. In conclusion, based on a comparison of analogs, a hypothesis on resonant phenomena as keys of access to ether energy in the surrounding space is formulated.
