**Background**

The Searl Effect Generator (SEG) technology, as applied to the
commercial market, had been previously developed to the point
where a few prototype SEG generators were made, and used for
electricity generation and motion. Commercial interest at that
time focused on the SEGs transport potential and, under
commercial pressure to deliver a fully functional system, the
original generators were used and lost in a series of vehicular
propulsion experiments and demonstrations. Funding was
insufficient to continue with the manufacture of the required
larger-scale pressurized cabin machines --- resulting in the
termination of the project at that time.

Although all the operating principles, precise proportions and
weights of the required materials are known for three of the
four required operating materials, the precise data of the
original magnetic layer is uncertain. The objective of the
current R&D programme s to re-establish the original
magnetic layer using modern and more efficient materials.

Originally, the layered materials were constructed and
magnetized by the now-defunct Midlands Electricity board under
the direction of John Searl.

Modern magnetic materials have advanced considerably, and old
ones discontinued, so a series of tests need to be conducted to
establish the optimum materials and processes, These tests need
to comply with the working criteria required and must lead to a
cost-effective manufacturing process.

In recent times SISRC has been re-establishing the original
research. Due to the very limited funding that has been
available, only a partially functioning demonstration prototype
of the SEG principles has been possible. This prototype consists
of the innermost of the three composite tings required and
several rollers

**Technical Description**

Physically the Searl Effect Generator (SEG) consists of three
concentric rings each made of a composite of four different
materials which are also concentrically attached to each other.
The three rings are fixed to rotate around them, are rollers ---
typically 10 on the first ring, 25 on the next, and 35 on the
outer ring. Surrounding the rollers on the outer ring are coils
which are connected in various configurations to supply either
AC or DC current at a variety of voltages. Multiple magnetic
poles are imprinted on the rings and rollers to form
frictionless magnetic bearings. These also arrange the static
charge into opposing charge clusters which cause the rollers to
rotate around the circumference of the ring (as shown in Figure
2)

Some expressions currently in use to describe the source of the
energy for the SEG are the Space Fabric, Quantum Energy Field of
Space, or Zero Point Energy. This is an unlimited and constant
source of energy which can be made to flow when the correctly
proportioned masses concerned are stimulated by the correct
frequencies creating an open system.

The idea of utilizing this source of energy is currently the
subject o various devices and experiments such as the Lamb
Shift, Casimir Effect, and the work of the Russian Nobel
Prize winner Ilya Prigogine. However, these devices and
experiments tend only to prove the existence of energy and not a
method to create a coherent, ordered flow to produce useful
power.

In contrast, John Searl has discovered that, in order to create
a steady and stable flow, all the masses of the device (and the
stimulating frequencies) must conform to precise values
determined mathematically by the Law of the Squares. A machine
constructed to these principles produces a stable and useful
power output.

**Definition of a Surface-Operating SEG**

A linear motor operating on a magnetic bearing with the
characteristics of an auto-transformer. The SEG is defined as a
device, which is constructed from 2,124 component parts, which
make up 3 plates and 66 roller sets. 12 of the 2,124 components
create the 3 plates, which act as reaction components. 2,112
components are employed to create 66 roller sets, which act as
active components. Each roller set consists of 8 segments
constructed from 32 components. Each segment cannot be less than
34 grams in weight, as the law of squares defines that value as
the lowest value suitable for the reasonable generation of
electricity. Therefore the smallest roller set must weigh 272
grams, making a grand total of 2,244 grams per roller set for
the smallest surface-bound SEG.

Tolerance should be about 0.05 gram per roller set. The larger
the error the greater is the loss of power within the unit.
Therefore the total tolerance for the smallest SEG roller set
must not be greater than 3.30 grams --- above this factor the
SEG will not function. For the best results, the tolerance
across the total 66 roller sets should not exceed 0.05 grams!

The SEG is a step-up rotary transformer. In fact its a three
rotary transformers operational system, within a unit. The
inner transformer output is fed in to the input of the second
plate which increases the output of the second unit, thereby
increasing its final output to a very high voltage. Therefore
the SEG is just a prime mover for the production of clean
electrical energy. The output windings must be designed to step
down this output to 240 volts at 15 Kwatts

When the SEG rollers are brought into close proximity to the
SEG Ring, te Searl Effect resonant magnetic field causes
negative ions and electrons to be drawn into and accelerated
through the machine. This process is assisted by the highly
electron-attracting rare earth metal Neodymium.

The unique mechanical and material arrangement of the SEG
pulses the neodymium to continually release and replace the
surplus electrons to provide electrical or mechanical power, or
both.

**Development**

Prior to the production of complete 15 KW SEGs, a minimum of
two demonstration Ring and Roller prototypes are to be produced.

The Ring is typical of the innermost of the three rings
required to make a complete SEG. The 69-roller sets in a
complete 3-ring SEG are identical. Six roller sets will be made
for the prototype inner rings so that the Searl Effect can be
demonstrated.

The production of a self-running Ring and Roller prototype will
establish the precise sequence and parameters of electrical,
magnetizing and material processes required for the SEG and will
demonstrate electrical power generation. An operating single
inner ring with 1-8 rollers will also determine if a particular
material will function correctly and at what level of power
output

**NOTES**

"The Searl Effect Generator (SEG) is a magnetic diode, and what
one may consider one of the original "Free Energy" Devices. The
inventor of the technology is Professor John Robert Roy Searl of
England. The SEG in essence is a composite ring made of an
electron reservoir (a rare earth like Neodymium), a magnetized
accelerator stage (Iron or Nickel), an electron flow regulator
stage (Nylon 66 or Teflon), and finally, a paramagnetic layer
(Aluminium or Copper). The design of the SEG is both beautifully
simple and infuriatingly complex at the same time..."

"Inside each of these IGVs there is a powerful 3-ring SEG which
provides levity to the craft through a combination of magnetic,
electrostatic and flywheel effects, many of which I freely admit
are beyond my comprehension.

"The iron element in the SEG "plate" (the big ring) is
magnetized with a combined DC and AC magnetizing sequence which
causes many poles to form all over the surface of the iron, in a
wave like pattern corresponding to the AC frequency used. The
iron element is then combined with the others (which are NOT
involved in the magnetizing process) in a process called
sintering - pushing them together under pressure. The same is
done for the smaller magnets, or "rollers", except that each
roller consists of eight stacked segments held together by the
magnetic field. When you have twelve roller stacks and a
correctly magnetized plate, and place the rollers on the plate
as below, something truly amazing happens.

"There are only ten rollers in the picture for safety reasons,
as in a full set, the rollers will accelerate to 250km/h around
the plate! This incredible feat is due to the instability of
having an AC sine imprint on the plate and a cosine print on the
rollers - instability created as the fields conflict causes the
rollers to orbit the plate. They are held down by the magnetic
field and thrown out by the centrifugal forces, so the rollers
do not actually touch the plate when in motion. Thus, friction
is virtually non-existent, and the high electrostatic charge
accumulated by the SEG soon ionises all the nearby air and
pushes it totally away from the SEG, enveloping it in an intense
vacuum. High voltage flashover thus becomes impossible, and the
potentials created by the generator can reach monstrous levels.

"Unlike any other form of electrical technology, the presence
of electron flow throught the generator actually cools it,
reducing the resistance. This is due to free electrons being
pulled out of the air and the resulting energy deficit causing
the air to cool. As one places a greater and greater load on the
SEG's induction coils (fitted so that the rollers pass through
them to produce high-frequency AC), the rollers accelerate to
accomodate the added energy drain, more power is pulled from the
air, and the temperature lowers even further. A critical point
is eventually reached. At 4 degrees Kelvin, the SEG
superconducts and totally loses all electrical resistance. At
this point, it levitates, completely enveloped in a perfect
vacuum. Without control, it will accelerate up away from the
Earth and disappear off into space, never to be seen again. To
control it, a powerful radio frequency emitted nearby is
required. If the same RF is transmitted as the AC frequency used
to magnetise the rollers, they will completely stop. This acts
as an ideal control gate, preventing the loss of costly
generators.
