Title:
METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR DIRECT ENERGY CONVERSION
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO2008005158
Kind Code:
A9
Abstract:
A method and apparatus for direct energy conversion employs modulated static magnetic flux emanating from the pole of a permanent magnet. Photon Cooper pair breaking is used to force a quantum state in Type II superconductor thin films by modulating a vortex channel made up of a bundle of vortex tubes isolated from each other for channeling static magnetic flux. Flux quanta are pinned inside the vortex channel by the magnetic interaction of the Meissner effect, atomic elastic forces, and an effect of electrons moving on the surfaces of the vortex tubes, and a massive shift in the permeability at the front of vortex channel. Static flux conducted through the vortex channel while in a superconducting state is modulated by forcing a quantum state of the Cooper pairs to toggle the vortex channel in and out of a superconducting state, which modifies its permeability up to 1 x 106 µ.
