Over-unity "Proto-Circuit" - Inductor Resistances Included PUBLIC

Even with Inductor Resistance included, this over-unity proto-circuit, at least as it simulates in CircuitLab, boasts a substantial (at least 130%) Coefficient of Performance (COP). COP may normalized some if standardized components with approximate, rounded-off values are used. However, if optimal performance is still desired, variable inductors may be included such that resonances may be "tuned" to the ideal. The best we had with "perfect" resonance, and inductor resistances included, was around 130% COP. If in doubt, you are welcome to simulate the circuit yourself, and perform the relatively easy "eyeball" integration of the power-in (Pin) curve to calculate your own figure for COP.

The integration consists primarily of summing the area of triangle-shaped "spikes" separated by large zero areas along the time axis, then dividing by the period of the 60Hz root waveform.

As is, the power input includes large momentary power spikes. Conditioning stages need to be added to the input, without affecting over-unity performance.

This work-in-progress is the ideal "proto-circuit" of circuits based on it that use more comprehensive (and realistic) models for inductors, capacitors and diodes, and voltage sources, as well as input power conditioning stages.

Linear components are "conservative," and as has been thought, can not seem to generate power of themselves, Non-linear components, however, are "non-conservative," and if engineered in the proper context, can produce a net power gain in the output.

This circuit is based on the nonlinearity of the diode (D1) creating "phantom" voltage or current sources comprised of Fourier series harmonics of a half-wave rectified sine-wave voltage. LC filtering seems to block the 2nd phantom harmonic currents from getting back to the voltage input. Further resonance paves the way for 2nd harmonic currents originating in diode (D1) to reach the load relatively unimpeded.

This "proto-circuit" is a Proof of Concept circuit to justify more research and, potentially, real world implementation. Home-scale units in the 10kW range could be developed for inverter and grid inter-tie connection, and the concept could also likely be scaled-up for large-scale generation on the order of Megawatts.
