An Innovative Method of Electric Current Generation Using Constant Electrostatic Field
It is a true proverb that necessity is the mother of invention. The demand
of energy in the present scenario is so high that it is necessary to search
for new sources of energy. In the past, the conservation law states that “energy
can be neither created nor destroyed”. Later it was modified “energy
can be neither created nor destroyed but can be changed from one form to another”.
Nature gave us some materials with unique properties; if these properties are
utilized in proper manner, then energy can be created. “Energy can be created
only when the applied force is the inherent property of the source”. Inherent
property means the property, which exits as a natural or permanent feature or
quality. There are many examples of such sources, which have this inherent property
such as:
- Gravitational Force
As in the case of the sun and the earth system, the acting force is naturally
large, due to which the earth rotates around the sun. This has a very small
value in the case of bodies having small mass.
- Magnetic Force
The attractive and repulsive forces between magnets are the inherent property.
Single magnetic pole does not exist and so it is difficult to create energy
using this property.
- Electrostatic Force
The force between the two charges is the inherent property. Single poles exist
in the form of positive or negative charge so it has an advantage over magnetic
force.
The electrostatic force is more suitable to use as inherent property source.
In this paper a new method of electric current by using constant electrostatics
field has been discussed and a mathematical relation between the potential difference
and electrostatic charge has been developed.
Introduction:
Electricity is one of the most wonderful invention of the 18th century. It can
be produced by various methods in which different types of energy are used such
as mechanical energy, chemical energy, but in this paper a new type of method
in which electrostatic energy is used has been discussed. In this method electrets
are used as an energy source. Electrets are permanent polarized dielectric material,
which is made by cooling the dielectric material in a high intensity electric
field. When electrons are placed in the electric field of a point charge, a
force will influence them. If the direction of this force is such that the electron
moves in a closed path then it represents a current in the opposite direction
along the closed path. Here closed path means a metal wire loop in which the
electron movement is responsible for the current. The charge of the electrets
remains constant for many years and there is no loss of energy because in this
method only the inherent property of the electrets(that it applies force when
a charge place in its electric field) is used. In this method energy is created
in the form of electric current. There are many examples where energy is created
e.g. perpetual motor, autonomous electro-station.
Theory:
This method can be divided into three steps:
1) Fundamental
2) Equivalent circuit
3) How it can be used as a potential source of electricity
- When a metal rod is placed in the electric field of a point negative charge
then the electrons inside the metal rod, will be repelled by a repulsion force
as shown by arrow direction. The electric field can be cut from a particular
direction by an earthed metal plate. When four negative charges are placed
near the corner of metal frame and they shield the electric field from a particular
direction as shown in fig.1,the acting force on the electron which is inside
the metal will be as shown by arrow and these will make a closed loop . The
force acting on the electron will be continuous and constant. The electric
current, which flows in the opposite direction of the electron movement, will
be induced in the metal frame.
- The equivalent circuit of fig.1 is shown in fig2. It shows that a ‘V’
volt battery and a resistance ‘R’ can be replaced by an arm of the
metal frame. The polarity of the battery is shown in fig.3. An electric current
of magnitude (V/R) will be induced in the circuit by this method.
- Electrets can be utilized as an inherent property source. Electrets are
the permanent polarized dielectric material, which are made by cooling a dielectric
material in the high electric field. These materials can be easily handled.
Electrets have opposite charge on its surface. The electrostatic field of
the electret is shown in fig.3. From the electrostatic theory, it is known
that when a metallic cylinder is placed in the electric field as shown in
the fig.4, the electric field intensity inside the cylinder will be zero.
Three electrets are placed with hollow cylinder fitted at the centre and a
metallic rod passing through the cylinder.
For easy understanding, the metallic rod may be replaced by a glass tube in
which negative particle is placed and the position of the particle at different
time is X1, X2, X3, X4, X5 as shown in fig.5. When the particle is at position
X1 the force due to negative charge of electret ET1 will be in perpendicular
direction and positive charge of electret ET2 will move the particle in forward
direction. When the particle reaches at X2 position then it will move in forward
direction by the forces due to negative charge of electret ET1 and positive
charge of electret ET2. When the particle reaches at position X3 then it will
move forward by the force due to negative charge of electret ET1. When the
particle reaches at position X4, the forces due to positive and negative charges
of the electret ET2 will be zero due to metallic cylinder fitted at the centre.
Now the forces due to the negative charge of the electret ET1 and positive
charge of the electret ET3 will move the particle forward. When the particles
reaches at position X5, behaviour of the particle will be similar to that
at position X1 and particle will move forward by the force due to positive
charge of electret ET3. When the path of the particle is made into circular
form then this particle will move in a closed path as shown in fig.6. The
electric current in the metallic rod will flow in direction opposite to the
path of negative particle.
