Nikola Tesla - one of the great scientists and inventors, through which modern society can enjoy the benefits and unique things that have become familiar to us.
One of the most favorite topics to study for Tesla had electricity and energy.He was the first to become interested in so-called "free energy."Tesla believed that its source is the sun.It is thanks to him and there is energy out of nothing.The scientist developed the theory that the sun emits particles, endowed with a small charge.They move at a speed that exceeds the speed of light.In the process of studying these phenomena had created a device to generate electricity from the air.
This device accumulate static electricity, and converts it to a form convenient for the consumer.
Tesla patented his concept in 1901.It is called "the machine to use the radiant energy."The scientist was fascinated by radiant energy and the ability to generate electricity from the air.Known radiometer Crooke he called fine invention, which has vanes rotating in vacuo under the action of radiant energy.He was convinced that in the near future it will be possible to obtain energy from the nature and the processes taking place in it.At a press conference, answering a variety of questions, he said that the engine of cosmic radiation thousands of times more powerful than the Crooke's radiometer.
How to get electricity out of the air?
between the base and lifted the plate there is an electrical potential.This energy is accumulated in the condenser and, after a certain period of time, manifests itself in a powerful discharge ability to do the job.Thus, it is possible to receive electricity from the air.A capacitor, according to Tesla, must meet certain requirements: to have a significant electrostatic capacity;it should be an insulator made of mica of the highest quality;resist the potential to break the poor insulator.
Tesla developed several variants of the switching device.One of them was the rotary switch on the principle of operation of such a regulator circuit, developed by Tesla.Another - an electrostatic device.It consists of a pair of membranous light conductors which are in a vacuum.As a result of their work to be created condensate, negatively and positively charged.In addition, the Tesla mentions another similar device.It consists of a small gap of air or a dielectric film that sags when reached a certain potential.
What is the electricity of the earth?
purpose of Tesla's experiments was to obtain a certain amount of energy, which is located between the upper atmosphere and the ground, and then converting it into an electric current.He pictured the sun as a huge electric ball that is infected and has a positive potential of about 200 billion volts.At the same time the earth is negatively charged.As a result of the interaction of these two bodies there is a huge electric power, which is called the cosmic energy.Its amount may vary depending on the time of day and season.But this energy is always present.
Positively charged particles accumulate in the ionosphere.Between it and the negative charges of the Earth there is a huge potential difference (about 360,000 volts).Given that atmospheric gases act as an insulator, a space is formed with a large amount of energy.
Earth in this case acts as a capacitor.She keeps positive and negative charges separately, using air as an insulator.
