Brief description of the ElectroMagnetic Levitation and Propulsion Turbine (EMLP Turbine)

The EMLP Turbine is a perpetual motion machine, its function is to generate electricity using electromagnets that make a levitation of a turbine and the section of the rotor (shaft) of an electricity generator, and of this form the forces of gravity and the friction are neutralized.

This machine is able to generate great amounts of electrical energy without depending of natural or artificial power source (aeolian energy, hydraulic energy, solar energy, atomic energy of nuclear fission, etc.), in fact only uses a part of the electrical energy that she itself will produce.

In this machine in individual, the electromagnets use electricity to activate, is used electricity to generate electricity, its better to say, the key is here to generate great amounts of electricity using an amount very little of electricity, a significantly very small amount.

This is possible, thanks for a side to the levitation of the turbine that neutralizes the force of the gravity and the friction, and by other side, to the storage of the electricity that would excite these electromagnets in batteries. The electrical energy used by the electromagnets would mean, in theory, less of 3% of the total of the electrical energy produced by the generator (alternator or dynamo). Once the batteries must be recharged, the system will have to be connected to the lines of distribution of electricity of the same turbine, is same to say will be fed electrically on its same power production.

In this system no losses of energy by heat because there are no surfaces in contact, the only energy loss would be the heat produced by the excitation of the electromagnets, but this energy loss irrelevant would be compared to the energy that will produce the system, in addition we must remember that this system does not depend on a thermoelectrical process, but of electromagnetic and mechanical processes; the mechanical energy originated by the rotating propulsion (electromagnetic) of the generator rotor (alternator or dynamo) will transform that energy into electricity..

Magnetic Levitation Technologies...

The variations of the technology of systems of magnetic levitation are three specifically:

1. PMS (Permanent Magnetic System) or Inductrack.
2. EDS (ElectroDynamic Suspension)
3. EMS (ElectroMagnetic Suspension)

The technology to use to construct Turbine LPEM will depend to a large extent on the decisions of the manufacturers and the relation between cost and benefit.

For this project so much to the system has been considered EMS (Electromagnetic Suspension) developed by Transrapid International, by to be highly efficient in terms of use of energy like a the Permanent Magnetic System (PMS or Inductrack).

The EDS System as in the case of the superconducting ones used by the Japanese technology of magnetic levitation it needs a cooling system by liquid nitrogen or helium, this turns it a system more expensive than the other two mentioned.

Recent American investigations on the permanent magnetic technology (Inductrack) have allowed of which permanent magnets with alloys of neodymium, iron and boron are sufficiently powerful like so that the produced magnetic force he is able to move (to create levitation) the weight of a train loaded with these magnets which would allow that this technology also can be used for the construction of a EMLP Turbine.

EMS (ElectroMagnetic Suspension)

Using the system EMS and previous data about the vehicles MAGLEVs and its corresponding power potential it is possible to be inferred that this system of magnetic levitation would remarkably diminish the energy consumed in an ideal system of perpetual motion, the values could to being inferior to 3%.

The technology EMS can create a levitation of 15 tons, and this no affects the acceleration (rotating propulsion of the system), this makes a system with great power potential.

Analyzing the data the following thing is deduced:

To move a turbine of a one meter of diameter at a speed of 400 km/h considers the distance to be crossed by the system.

The Formula Perimeter = π by Diameter it indicates that the value of the perimeter (of a circumference) arises to multiply the value of Pi (3,14) by the value of the diameter.

1 meter per 3,14 is equal to 3,14 meters

To obtain the speed of rotation we would apply the following mathematical operation, considering that 400 km/h is equal to 6666.67 meters per minute. This would give by result the speed of rotation (rpm) considering that the movement is to circulate and uniform.

6666,67 meters per minute / 3,14 meters = 2123,14 rpm

Deductible it is possible to be calculated that for certain number of rpm turning a rotor of a one meter of diameter is equal at a certain speed in km/h.

To arrive at 3000 rpm would be needed a speed 9420 m/min what represents 565 km/h. At the speed of 1200 km/h a turbine of a meter of diameter would turn to more than 6000 rpm.

We detailed here, part of the principle of operation of the EMLP Turbine

The weight of the turbine and the section of the generator rotor of electricity are neutralized by the force of levitation of the support electromagnets placed between the levitated section or suspended section and to the immovable section of support (Figure Nº 3; items 1 and 8). This system is able to create a levitation of 15 tons, and this no affects the acceleration (rotating propulsion of the turbine), this makes a system with great power potential.

The levitation also suppresses the friction (contact between surfaces). Due to this, the energy to rotate the rotor of a generator is minimum. And will be necessary only 4.7 kWh to generate a force sufficient to rotate the shaft of the turbine to more than 2,000 rpm, transferring that mechanical energy to the generator rotor of the electricity (Figure Nº 3; item 9) enormous amounts of energy will be produced, with a near power or superior to 150 MW, which would surpass to the benefits of present wind turbines and it would be equaled to the thermoelectrical turbines efficiency.

The system of power supply (Figure 3; item 10) that transports the energy from the inverter dc/ac connected to the batteries to the support electromagnets of the immovable section can be replaced directly by a source of originating alternating current of the lines of distribution once the turbine has begun to produce electrical energy. We must consider that, in the case of an electrical power station, the first turbine will be able to provide sufficient energy (alternating current) to activate the support electromagnets of the other turbines.

To recharge the batteries of the immovable section or support the system will have to be connected to the lines of distribution of electricity of the same turbine, is to say will be fed electrically on its same power production, but an observation must here become important. The inverter dc/ac (Figure 3; item 13) will be necessary when production of electrical energy on the part of the system of EMLP Turbine still does not exist. The inverter is used to generate the alternating current to cause the rotating propulsion of levitated section. As it increases the frequency of the alternating current increases the speed of rotation of the turbine. For that reason, when counting on a production of electrical energy, the system of power supply could be connected directly to the lines of distribution of energy, replacing to the batteries and the inverter dc/ac (Figure 3; items 13 and 14).

They are observed that the excited electromagnets (Figure 3; item 5) by means of electrical energy originating of batteries neutralizes the gravity forces and the friction, of this form the weight of the turbine and the section of the rotor of an electricity generator is equal to zero. To this type of electromagnets is denominated stator, and work in the same way that in a dynamo, creating an electromagnetic field (North and South).

The electromagnets in charge of the levitation (Figure 3; item 6) is able by means of the induction of electrical current to cause the reverse of the poles (North and South) and to create to be way the propulsion or the circular movement of the turbine and therefore rotates the shaft of the turbine connected to the generator rotor, which generates the electricity.

For a better performance, the circular motor will be divided in certain number of sections, this will avoid having the whole section of the circular motor ignited all along. This way each section will activate by a certain time, later the following one would activate and the previous one would become disconnected thus and continuously until completing a period of 24 hours.

The batteries (Figure 3; item 3) which they will feed the support electromagnets (levitation) in the levitated section electrically will recharge through generators integrated between the support electromagnets of the immovable section (Figure Nº 3; item 7).

The blue arrows indicate the circular movement (rotation) of the turbine and the rotor (coils) of the electricity generator.

Production of Electricity

If we consider the specific yield of other turbines, as those of steam and hydraulic the considered values would be deduced of the following thing:

Steam Turbine of the Thermoelectrical Power Station to Coal of Guacolda in Chile
Rated Capacity: 152 MW
Speed of the Rotor: 3,000 rpm
Total of MW per year: 1,331,520 MWh per year = 1,331 GWh/year.

Steam Turbine of the Costanera Power Station of Argentina (Unit Nº 7)
Rated Capacity: 310 MW
Speed of the Rotor:3,000 rpm
Total of MW per year: 2,715,600 MWh per year = 2,715 GWh/year

Data of the Hydroelectric  “Yacyretá” Binational
Turbine Kaplan type
Rated Capacity:154 MW
Maximum Capacity:160 MW
Rated Tension:13.2 Kv
Speed of the Rotor:71.4 rpm
Rotor Diameter:16.0 m
Total of MW per year of an one turbine according to maximum power: 1,401,600 MWh per year = 1,401 GWh/year

Having it counts these data, we can infer that the power of an EMLP Turbine would be between the rates of:

152 MW, 310 even superior MW or with a speed of 3000 rotation of rpm.

Has been observed in the mentioned examples, the production of energy (in kWh) of a turbine this determining by the types of generators (alternators or dynamos) used in the hydroelectric or thermoelectrical power stations that turn the speed of rotation (rpm) electricity. For that reason, is recommendable for better performance of the speed of rotation of EMLP Turbine are used the generators of electricity which they do not have friction, in where the magnets (permanent or electromagnets) create a magnetic field able to maintain to the rotor (coils), but we must remember that the support electromagnets are able to create a levitation up to 15 tons of weight, is to say the own weight of the levitated section more the section of the generator rotor of electricity, in other words, the rotor would practically hang of the levitated section through the main shaft that connects these two parts of the system. (See Figure 2; item 9)

As an example the following estimations become:

Using the values of the thermoelectrical turbines that work to 3,000 rpm, we can consider that the energy spent of EMLP Turbine would be of 2 MW, with which we would be exaggerating or overestimating the amount of energy spent by the system.

A turbine of the Thermoelectrical Power Station of Guacolda in Chile works to 3,000 rpm with a power of 152 MW (Mega Watts per hour), supposing that EMLP Turbine has this same power, we would deduce the following thing:

EMLP Turbine:
Rated Capacity: 152 MW
Energy Production per year: 1,331,520 MW
Energy Spent: 2 MW
Energy Spent per year: 17,520 MW
Energy Production Effective per year: 1,314,000 MW
Relation of Energy Produced versus Consumed Energy: 1.32%

Using another example of turbine, like the one of the Costanera Power Station of Argentina that works to 3,000 rpm with a power of 310 MW (Mega Watts per hour), supposing that EMLP Turbine has this same power, we would deduce the following thing:

EMLP Turbine:
Rated Capacity: 310 MW
Energy Production per year: 2,715,600 MW
Energy Spent: 2 MW
Energy Spent per year: 17,520 MW
Energy Production Effective per year: 2,698,080 MW
Relation of Energy Produced versus Consumed Energy: 0,65%

Advantages of a Turbine with Levitation and Electromagnetic Propulsion (EMLP Turbine)

The technology of magnetic levitation allows to develop to discharges speeds (rpm) due to the suppression of weight and friction, therefore it represents a high power potential, high efficiency in the energy consumption, reduced ecological impact and is independent of fossil fuels, is a system that does not produce dangerous or polluting remainders. It is the ideal system for the energy creation, in all sense.

This perpetual motion machine is able to generate great amounts of electrical energy without depending of natural or artificial power source (wind energy, hydraulic energy, solar energy, atomic energy of nuclear fission, etc.), in fact only uses a part of the electrical energy that itself will produce.

The system only uses electrical energy to produce more energy, once activated will be feed back to if same, consuming the necessary energy for its operation originated of its own production.

Considering the amount of polluting agents that is generated by it burns it of fossil fuels, of coal or natural gas to generate electricity, this technology will become an ally to reduce to the high index of contamination to global level and the catastrophic consequences of the greenhouse effect derived from the global warming.

Another great advantage of this system is that it can be stopped for maintenance, obvious is due to count on a unit of reserve or replacement so that the other can leave operation.

Observations:

The values of the dimensions of EMLP Turbine are as a reference and will serve to this project for the estimation as the variables as energy used by the system and the energy produced by the same one.

The considered amount of energy used by the system could be lower valued, the real values could be greater, but of the same form, the amount of energy produced by the system also is lower valued, the real values could be extraordinarily greater, which does not affect to the proportion of relation between the energy used versus the produced energy, this system always will produce more energy of the one than it consumes. The proportion of this relation could be underneath 3%, but still in the hypothetical case that this system consumes 50% of its produced energy, this not it invalidated like a of ideal perpetual motion machine, because the produced energy does not depend on any other power source.

In the case of the MAGLEVs trains the movement is linear and the electromagnets of propulsion throughout the guideway are located, the interchange of the poles of the electromagnets would impel a vehicle by means of the electromagnetic forces of attraction (the vehicle is stretched towards the front) or repulsive (the vehicle is pushed towards the front), these two electromagnetic forces is what the propulsion or the braking in the MAGLEVs vehicles creates.

As the movement in EMLP Turbine is circular, the circular motor of propulsion in sections can be divided, of this form the system would become redundant, it would be avoided to have a single ignited motor all the time and it will be avoided that in case of failures all the system lets operate. Each section of the propulsion motor can work certain time, later the following section would activate and the previous one would become disconnected so on and. This will avoid the cost of energy in heat form, since each section will work a certain time. In the Figure Nº 3 (item 8) the propulsion section is divided in eight sections (emphasized in two colors; green clear and blue), this way each section will be able to work three hours per day, later would deactivate and enter operation the next section, repeating itself the process until completing a period of 24 hours, consequently the process will begin from the beginning from the first section of propulsion.

Electromagnets guides (Figure 3; items 14) will be arranged strategically in certain parts of the immovable section to avoid that there are frictions between the shaft of the turbine and the internal walls of the support structure (immovable section) and to assure that the movable section is centered forcefully.

One of the characteristics of the electromagnets guides is that they are used in a single unit (different the levitation electromagnets who are used in pairs) and is used electromagnetic forces of a single sense; of attraction or repulsion to maintain a separation of certain distance between the movable section and the immovable section. For it, some type of susceptible metallic alloy to magnetism will have to be used in the part to attract or to repel by the electromagnet.

The section of compartments of batteries (Figure 5; item 4) is divided by sections and the structure has a helical form with aerodynamic forms to diminish the resistance to the air the possible maximum.
Is also observed (Figure 5; item 9) the connection of the shaft of the turbine with the rotor (shaft) of the electricity generator. As we see here (Figure 5; item 10) the rotor would practically hang of the levitate section through the main shaft that connects these two parts of the system.

This section of the system that includes the turbine (levitate section) more the main shaft and the generator rotor of electricity can get to weigh up to 15 tons, that are the limit of weight that supports to the levitation electromagnets using technology EMS (Electromagnetic Suspension). In other words, the system can create a levitation of up to 15 tons of weight.

In this disposition of 45º for the location of the support electromagnets (levitation, propulsion and halting) is eliminated the necessity to count with guides electromagnets. This configuration allows to greater stability when locating the levitated section in a position forcefully centered, annulling possible tangential escapes.

In this case the shaft of the turbine is diminishing its thickness as it advances downwards where it will be connected with the rotor (shaft) of the electricity generator. This configuration allows the greater one takes hold and rotor support. Also it allows to a greater stability of the levitated section and better distribution of the weight of the movable structure..

This horizontal disposition would work of the same form in the vertical position, excepting that will have to study if the disposition of the electromagnets is necessary guides to center the shaft horizontally, or to avoid possible contacts between surfaces (levitated section and immovable section) and/or to maintain to the turbine in a fixed site. It is necessary to consider that this disposition exists the possibility that the stator (constituted by two permanent magnets or electromagnets with opposite polarities) of the electricity generator produces a strong electromagnetic field able to maintain in suspension the coils (rotor) in the center, in other words, the stator would fulfill the function of the electromagnets guides.

A EMLP Turbine using technology PMS or Inductrack does not need electrical energy for the levitation the turbine, because the magnets are permanent, but if it needs a source alternating electrical current for the propulsion motor, whereas a EMLP Turbine using the system EMS (Electromagnetic Suspension) needs energy to activate so much the levitation electromagnets as those of propulsion.

In system PMS (Permanent Magnetic System) the similar poles are aligned so that it operates by repulsive forces and in such a way that they cancel all magnetism directed towards the opposite side.

This design eliminates the batteries in the top of the turbine will be powered electrically to the electromagnets by a support arm, similar to what is used to power electric trams and trains. In this case, there is friction between surfaces but this would not make a lot of friction.


Data Update: April 2011

In 2006 I started recording my invention the ElectroMagnetic Levitation and Propulsion Turbine.

The feasibility to build my invention has been shown, in my Antecedents of Invention, I suggested a hypothetical perpetual motion system, connecting an electric motor to an electric generator, an engine that spends far less in relation to what produces the generator, the idealization was not so hypothetical...

An Inventor Colombian is selling the Ucros Kit, which is what I envisioned, the project works this way, having a generator of 3.5 MW, which runs to 3500 rpm, connect an electric motor also works to 3500 rpm. The electric motor replacing work as the driving force of wind, solar energy, hydro or thermal (atomic energy). The electric motor will spend only 1.5 KW of electricity.

Mr. Carlos Ucros Piedrahita has a Facebook Profile, Website and Contact Information.
