RESONANT ELECTRICAL ENERGY IN THEORY AND EXPERIMENTS

Resonant Electrical Energy in Theory and Experiments is a substantial scientific monograph devoted to one of the most intriguing and technically promising areas of modern electrodynamics: resonance as a physical mechanism for the transformation, amplification, and practical use of electrical energy. The structure of the book consistently leads the reader from general physical concepts to strict analytical models, numerical estimates, experimental verification, and engineering applications. Its chapter system demonstrates that the work is not a collection of isolated studies, but a coherent scientific concept built around resonant processes in electrical systems. Chapter 1 opens the monograph with a broad conceptual and physical introduction. The author considers modern energy in the context of new physical representations, including ether, physical vacuum, electromagnetic energy in matter, fuelless power plants, electrodynamic alternators, and the role of resonance as a key to the energy of the surrounding space. Chapter 2 turns to the Tesla transformer, presented here as the first highly efficient resonant transducer of electric voltage. The chapter contains a literature review, strict derivation of calculated relations for operation at exact resonance, and a separate analysis of the case where the operating frequency deviates from the resonant value. Numerical estimates make the theoretical conclusions engineering-relevant. . Chapter 3 develops the theory of the resonant reactive power amplifier. The reader is given a general circuit, mathematical relationships, electromagnetic process analysis, and experimental investigations. Special attention is paid to methods of resonance excitation in a series circuit by rectangular voltage pulses, including both immediate and inductive excitation. Chapter 4 is devoted to converters of reactive electric power into active power. The author analyzes systems built from two resonant circuits, inductively coupled parallel circuits, and the influence of the resonant converter on the reactive power source itself. This is one of the key engineering chapters of the monograph because it addresses the practical problem of useful power extraction and energy conversion efficiency. Chapter 5 examines resonant amplifiers of active electrical power in several forms: for harmonic signals, for impulse regimes, for periodic current pulses, and in optimized circuit configurations. The internal logic of the chapter is especially strong: each section begins with relevance and problem formulation, proceeds through calculation relationships, and ends with numerical or experimental confirmation. Chapter 6 brings the discussion to practical applications. The first part addresses magnetic-pulse installations, including double-circuit resonant amplifiers and Arkadiev–Marx schemes with resonant charging of capacitive storage devices. The second part focuses on accumulator batteries, rectifier systems, increasing battery energy characteristics, and charging processes. Taken as a whole, the monograph presents a complete scientific route: from physical foundations and historical prototypes to advanced resonant amplifiers and concrete engineering implementations. It will be of interest to researchers, university teachers, graduate students, design engineers, and specialists in electrodynamics, power engineering, induction technologies, and magnetic-pulse processing. The book is especially valuable for readers seeking not superficial descriptions, but a deep analytical treatment supported by calculations, experiments, and practical orientation.
