In the 1880's, Nikola Tesla invented the alternating current system we
use today. By the 1890's, he was working on a new type of electrical
generator that would not "consume any fuel." In my first paper,
prepared for the 1991 Intersociety Energy Conversion Engineering
Conference, documents where in his writings the description of this
new generator is found, a theory of how a fuelless generator could
work and a suggestion as to how Tesla's new device might have
operated.
The second paper, for the 1993 IECEC, argues that the fuelless generator follows the Second Law of Thermodynamics, that it is not an "over unity" device putting out more energy that it takes in. It is a device that performs little physical work and expends little energy.
The third paper looks at the many references Tesla made to the use of his wireless power transmission technology as a directed energy weapon. These statements are examined in their relationship to the Tunguska explosion of 1908 which may have been a test firing of Tesla's energy weapon.
Copies of these papers, with complete illustrations, and other articles on Tesla, including a reproduction of the letter in which Tesla claims the invention of a generator that would not "consume any fuel," are available from:
