The quest for Nikola Tesla’s wireless power technology

Ғылым және технология

Nikola Tesla’s biggest dream was a worldwide network of wireless power transmission. He built a lab and a massive prototype transmission tower...that never worked. But, a century later, engineers are chasing the same dreams of wireless power and making some tantalizing headway. So was Tesla onto something?

    Yes that is true as well as @AnarchistAarons referral to the wide use of the term "Neon Lamp" but still the physics allow the LED to light up in the mag. field of a tesla coil. A diode is polarity sensitive thats correct but as mentioned in the video the magnetic field changes (i assume with a Frequency in atleast the range weve got in our AC power grids (75 Hz in Germany). This change in magnetic field then induces an also AC current in the metal connectors of the diode (if those were to be shorted). But the diode will only allow for a closed circuit one way thus you could measure a DC current thats pulsating in strength because it's constantly collpasing due to the polarity change. I assume the pulsating is just too fast to see with the eye/camera here. (Maybe I'm wrong tho idk - im only a mechanical engineer not an electro engineer)

    You guys messed up your explanation. The changing magnetic field is produced by the changing electric field passed through the primary coil (the thick, little one on the bottom). This changing magnetic field induces a changing electric field in the secondary coil (the thin, tall tower). Because the secondary coil is open at the top (the spike), it sprays out charge and ionizes the air, meaning the air acts more like a conductor. When you held up that fluorescent tube, you grounded it, allowing charge to flow from the coil, through the now conductive air, through the tube, through you, and then through the ground (and also the reverse is true).

    Tesla never passed on free energy. He didn't spent time on it. He focused on harnessing earth's electricity by forming a cycle from atmospher to ground and back up. Since atmospheric electricity is from the sun, the re-bounce from atmosphere to the ground would have been amplified.

    Nikola Tesla's pursuit of advancing electrical power was met with setbacks, including the devastating loss of his laboratory in 1895. As a result, Tesla felt compelled to protect his knowledge by encrypting it, leaving his groundbreaking discoveries shrouded in mystery. However, among his many works, Tesla regarded his article "The Problem of Increasing Human Energy" as the most significant one he had ever written. As a dedicated Tesla researcher for the past two decades, I believed I had extracted the utmost value from this crucial article. However, after encountering Ernst Willem van den Bergh's work, I must acknowledge that he has unearthed a wealth of information that surpasses my previous understanding. Van den Bergh has seemingly deciphered the elusive "Tesla-Code," offering profound insights into Tesla's work and his extraordinary mind.

Almost like a perpetual battery or source of energy. Now, while I'm 100% confident this will eventually happen, I lack the dedication and knowledge to figure out how to do it myself. So until someone else figures it out, I will plug my phone in.

    This is the kind of Tesla content I'm looking for: explaining in a scientific manner why he wasn't able to progress, not these stupid biodocu's where they simple say "oh, he went mad!" and don't even care to explain. Tesla was a genius, but sadly as the one physicist says, a product of his time. If he were alive today, he'd just be wondering what came next like the rest of us, because everything he wanted to accomplish was already in place. Every time a society accomplishes great technological innovations, they search for applications of the new technology. It's only when the technology is mastered, that the society starts looking for a new one, if they haven't discovered anything by accident. I'm "afraid", for the lack of a better term, we'll be discovering new applications of electricity and digital technology for a very long time before we even start considering what should come next.
