Single-Volume Magnetic Reconnection Converter (MRC) with Variable β of Plasma based on Thermodynamic Duty Cycle “α- Dynamo – Magnetic Reconnection”

Magnetic reconnection converter (MRC) based on a single-volume plasma (spheromak) with a variable β in the turbulent pumping (charging)/discharging phases of the thermodynamic duty cycle “α-dynamo – magnetic reconnection”. To obtain helpful energy, the proposed MRC uses a cyclic combination of two physical processes:

α-dynamo, generated by controlled turbulence,

A Better Way to Power Military Platforms Without Diesel

I am working on identifying technologies that can power military combat platforms in austere environments. With NATO announcing that it will be net zero emissions by 2050, there is a scramble to find technologies that can replace fossil fuels for operational platforms. There are currently no mature technologies that can meet operational requirements. This includes batteries,

Programmable Torque Source for Reactive Power Generation

A positive displacement 'radial steam engine' with infinitely variable valve timing. Can theoretically apply 100% torque from 0 RPM up to the choked flow speed of the inlet piping. By utilizing a high speed digital FADEC with anticipatory algorithms, the speed, torque, and power, delivered to a rotating load can maximize thermal to mechanical energy conversion efficiency.

Frictionless Oscillating Bearing System

The Frictionless Oscillating Bearing (FOB) is a next-generation mechanical support system engineered to replace conventional pivot and wear joints on oilfield pump jacks. Designed specifically for the repetitive vertical motion of the polish rod, this system eliminates mechanical friction through a magnetically levitated spherical bearing. The FOB integrates electromagnetic field suspension, precision alignment sensors,
