| Solid State Propulsion System This Solid State Propulsion System consists of two parts. Claim 1 : The first part consists of a spiraling inward and upward cone shape permanent magnet, as shown in figure 1 of page 3. This magnetic spiraling cone shape structure could be made of any magnetic material such as superconductors, neodymium magnets etc. The second part consists of a pulsating electromagnetic field, which is inside the magnetic spiraling cone shape structure, and it is perpendicular to this spiraling magnet. This pulsating magnetic field (minimum 20 Hz) can be achieved by turning on and off a central coil magnet made of copper wire or superconducting wire, or any magnetisable material as shown in figure 1 of page 3. When the central magnetizable coil is energised, magnetic field lines are generated and they will give a pull to the magnetic field lines of the magnetic spiraling cone shape structure. The magnetic forces that are acting along this magnetic spiraling cone shape structure are depicted in figure 1 of page 3. “Fr” is the resultant force, which contribute to the propulsion. Therefore by applying pulsating electromagnetic field to the magnetic spiraling cone shape structure, a continuous motion will be generated. Another way can also be applicable is, instead of pulsating the central core magnet, is to have a permanent central core magnet and to spin around one or more spiraling cone shape structure. But instead of spinning them around mechanically, is to energise them with high DC voltage one pair or two pairs at a time, clock wise or anti-clock, depends on the spiraling cone shape structure. Is it a right handed or left handed spiral. Claim 2: The second part could also consist of individual pulsating electromagnets all along this magnetic spiraling structure, and they are connected in parallel, so that they can be energized all at once, as shown in figure 2 of page 4. This individual magnet could be made of any magnetizable material, such as copper wire or superconducting wire as well. Claim 3: The magnetic spiraling cone shape structure could be firmly attached inside a superconducting coil made of superconducting material (as shown in figure 3 of page 5), and this should be able to handle at least 100 A of DC current, and it must be able to turn on and off at minimum 20 Hz. Claim 4: The first part consists of two pieces of circular metal plate connected to high DC voltage power supply. The supplied DC voltage depends on the size of the metallic spiraling cone shape structure as shown in figure 4 of page 6. The propulsion in this is caused by the pulsating electric charge in the metallic spiraling cone shape structure. Claim 5: To improve the propulsive lift and thrust of this “solid state propulsion system” is to add more magnetic spiraling cone shape structure with their accompanied pulsating central core magnet or superconducting coil as mentioned in Claim 1 to 3. Besides according to Claim 4, the propulsive thrust can also be increased by adding more metallic spiraling cone shape structures with their accompanied top and bottom metal plates. Claim 6: All of these spiraling cone shape structures and the superconducting coils as mentioned in Claim 1 to 4 can be made in microscopic size and they can be embedded in solid state material in the near future. |
This Solid State Propulsion System consists of two parts.
The first part consists of a spiraling inward and upward cone shape permanent magnet.
This magnetic spiraling cone shape structure could be made of any magnetic material such as superconductors, neodymium magnets etc.
The second part consists of a pulsating electromagnetic field, which is inside the magnetic spiraling cone shape structure, and it is perpendicular to this spiraling magnet. This pulsating magnetic field can be achieved by turning on and off a central coil magnet made of copper wire or superconducting wire, or any magnetisable material as in figure 1.
When the the central magnetisable coil is energised, magnetic field lines are generated and they will give a push to the magnetic field lines from the magnetic spiraling cone shape structure. The magnetic forces that are acting along this magnetic spiraling cone shape structure are depicted in figure 1 . Fr is the resultant force which contribute to the propulsion. Therefore by introducing pulsating electromagnetic field to the magnetic spiraling cone shape structure, a continuous motion will be generated.
The second part could also consist of individual pulsating electromagnets all along this magnetic spiraling structure, and they are connected in parallel, so that they can be energized all at once, as in figure 2. This individual magnet could be made of any magnetisable material, such as copper wire or superconducting wire as well.
At this stage, the resultant forces are small and will not be able to generate enough lift or thrust, to lift a spacecraft. It is kind of similar to when French engineer and bicycle maker Paul Cornu invented his rotary wing aircraft in 1907. There was not enough lift, because of small engine. To improve the lift and thrust of this “solid state propulsion system” is to add more magnetic spiraling cone shape structure and to increase the pulse rate of the central coil magnet
Another way can also be applicable is, instead of pulsating the central core magnet is to have a permanent central core magnet and to spin the spiraling cone shape structures, or to energise them one pair or two pair at a time clock wise or anti-clock, depends on the spiraling cone shape structure, is it a right handed or left handed spiral.
