Ortronic® is a registered mark that represents the technology developed by the Scientist Juan Ortigosa García and also represents the products derived from his technology. The trademark, the technology and the 'know how' are property of Juan Ortigosa García.
The Ortronic® technology, indispensable for the knowledge, development and production of the Ortronic® products, is based on the discovery of NEW DIMENSIONS of the electric energy that have allowed new inventions, new technology and new products.
A NEW CONCEPT OF THE ELECTRICAL ENERGY
The advantages of the Ortronic® products cannot be understood from the knowledge previous to the Ortronic® technology.
This fact has always happened in the discoveries of new phenomenon or physical dimensions, as we can see in the following examples.
EXAMPLE ONE
Before knowing of the 'heat pump', in order to heat a house with electrical energy, heaters were used, and it could be stated:
1 Kilowatt/hour = 760 kilocalories
With the heat pump, we can also state:
1 Kilowatt/hour = 1520 kilocalories
The possibility of obtaining double the heat with the same amount of electrical energy could not be understood by those who did not know how heat pumps worked.
EXAMPLE TWO
Before having knowledge of fusion, it could be stated that:
In theory, the amount of electrical energy that can be generated with a litre of water, by hydraulic means, is less than 1 watt-hour.
With knowledge of fusion, it can now be stated that:
In theory, the amount of electrical energy that can be generated with the fusion of one litre of water is more than 1,000,000 watt-hours.
The amount of water is identical in both cases, the enormous difference lies in KNOWLEDGE.
THE ORTRONIC® CASE
Those who do not have knowledge of Ortronic® can state:
The maximum real power, with a 100 KVA generator supplying a house with a power factor of 0.5
(=0.5) equals 50 kW.
With Ortronic® we can also state:
The maximum real power, with a 100 KVA generator supplying a house with a power factor of 0.5(=0.5) and an Ortronic®, equals 100 kW.
The generator is the same in both cases; the significant difference is, here also, brought by KNOWLEDGE.
If the advantages of the Ortronic® could be understood by any of the electric power professionals as Scientists, Professors, Engineers, etc., the Ortronic® technology would have a very little value, because any of them could manufacture similar products on his own benefit.
The great value of the Ortronic® technology is that the electric power professionals don't understand its advantages and, logically, nobody should accept technical advances that don't understand.
The Ortronic® products based on the Ortronic® technology are being manufactured since 1990.
Main applications of Ortronic® I.
1. Off-grid electrification: For users that are not connected to the electric grid.
2. Anti-blackout systems: The solution to blackouts, saving energy.
3. Mobile telephone repeaters: When they are not connected to the electrical grid, they save more than a 70% of energy and when they are connected to the electrical grid, with blackouts longer than one hour, they avoid the blackout saving energy, without using private generators.
Fundamental advantages of Ortronic® I:
1. The Ortronic® converters are the only ones that recover the reactive energy transforming it into useful to produce work, saving with it a quantity of energy proportional to the quantity of reactive energy generated in the installation.
1.1.When we talk about energy savings compared with other systems, we also have to take under consideration the differences of losses between both converters, and the losses without load, as we can see in the following comparative table, in a 24 RMS kilowatt converter.
Maximum looses with Ortronic® :
<
3%
Maximum consumption witout load with Ortronic®
<
0,01%
Maximum losses with PWM :
>
90%
Maximum comsumption with no load with PWM :
>
6%
1.2.The expounded reasons permit us to affirm that the energy savings of the Ortronic® systems, compared to any other system of the market, are higher than 50%.
2. The new Ortronic® batteries chargers, manufactured since February 2010, incorporate the new load regulation system called MPRCO that regulates the charging process of the batteries without varying the voltage of the generator.
2.1. The new MPRCO chargers, with inputs for single phase and three phase currents, charge the batteries in the minimum time permitted by the manufacturer with any of the two currents, single phase or three phase, being the only system of the market with this characteristic.
3. The new range of converters, single phase and three phase, manufactured since March 2010, is up to 500 RMS kilowatt.
4. The new products of the Ortronic® I range products doesn't have competitors in quality, neither in energy saving or in price.
5. The three applications of the Ortronic® I products need batteries for the following reasons:
In the blackouts: To maintain the energy during the hours of the blackout.
In the off-grid electrification: To reduce the operating hours of the generator, prolonging their useful life, reducing the maintenance and increasing the energy savings.
In the mobile phone repeater: Because of the two conditions detailed in the two previous paragraphs are possible.
There is a great difference between a variable direct current and an alternating current. In variable direct current there is no reactive energy; in alternating current, there is.
Electronics (radio, TV, communications...) is variable direct. No converter generates real alternating current, Ortronic® is the only converter that generates real alternating current.
Comparison of efficiency of a conventional converter and an Ortronic®, on the basis of the load power.
The efficiency of Ortronic® is between 95% and 97%. The efficiency of the best converter is between 20% and 90%. Ortronic®, without load, has no consumption. Conventional converters, without load, consume thousands of watts.
4. IT DOES AWAY WITH TRANSFORMERS AND FILTERS.
Transformers are heavy, costly elements, with losses. Ortronic® uses 22 batteries for 220 volt installations and 12 for 110 volt installations, thereby eliminating the output transformer.
It charge the electrical warehouse from the generator, in one-phase or three-phase mode, without the need for a transformer.
Conventional converters work with lower voltages and have to use 2 transformers, one for output to increase the voltage to 220V, and another for input to reduce the charging voltage.
In emergencies, it is not possible to vary the grid voltage, we must regulate the charging voltage with a motorised autotransformer.
5. THE INTERSECTION BETWEEN THE PHASES.
Three-phase systems, as their name states, have three phases (PH1, PH2 and PH3), with a phase lag between them of 120 degrees, each cycle has 360 degrees and each half-cycle has 180 degrees, as indicated in the following figure.
For the three phases to act in each cycle it is necessary to introduce three half-cycles of 180 degrees each, adding up to 540 degrees, in a circumference that only has 360 degrees.
Therefore there are 180 degrees left over (540-360), which, distributed among the three phases, result in three 60 degree angles known as intersection angles.
For the 60 degrees of each of these intersection angles, there is a force against the revolution of the motor, which acts as a brake, and taking the three angles, the force against the revolution acts against a total of 180 degrees.
To summarise, we can say that: during each revolution of the motor, there are three forces that act against it for 180 degrees, and another three forces that act in favour of the revolution of the motor for the remaining 180 degrees.
Given that the instant values of the forces acting as brakes are lower than those acting in favour of the revolution, the final result is that, as a consequence of the intersection angles, the motor loses 22% of its total power.
For the same reason, generators in star connection, when the voltage between phases is used, lose 22% of their total power.
Ortronic® is the only known electronic technology that eliminates the brake forces in the three phases.
6. EFFICIENCY OF ELECTRIC MOTORS.
The effiency of an electric motor is equal to the mechanical power applied to its axis divided by the electrical power of the motor, both expressed in the same unit, normally watts.
Most electric motors work at very different mechanical powers: for instance, electric cars require a great deal of power when going up a slope, and very little power when driving flat or going down a slope.
In accordance with the above definition, the efficiency of electric motors depends to a great extent on the mechanical power required by its axis. When the mechanical power reaches its maximum limit, efficency exceeds 90%, but as the mechanical power reduces, so does the efficiency, in practice sometimes reaching values as low as 15%.
It is also a well-known fact that when the efficiency of the motor decreases, due to low mechanical load, so does the power factor.
According to an American journal published some years ago, a subsidiary of the multinational company EXXON® spent 600 million US Dollars seeking an electronic system capable of maintaining motor performance with low loads. After this substantial investment, the project was abandoned without having obtained a solution.
Ortronic® has found the solution that the American multinational was seeking, in addition to other discoveries that add to its great advantages.
7. SPEED VARIATION IN ELECTRIC MOTORS.
The most efficient and accurate way of varying speed in electric motors is by varying frequency. The devices that carry out these functions are known as speed variators.
Speed variators are direct to alternating current converters that vary their frequency within very narrow limits.
The frequency limits are those derived from their technology (PWM), which require LC Filters and transformers to obtain real alternating current.
It is a well know fact that both the coils that form the LC filters and the transformers have a reactance that is defined by: XL= 2πFL, where F is the frequency of cycles per second and L is the self-induction coefficient measured in Henries.
In practice, XL limits the maximum frequency to approximately 400 cycles per second, which in turn limits the maximum speed of a four-pole three-phase motor to approximately 18,000 revolutions per minute.
Given that it does not use transformers or filters in the generation of alternating current, Ortronic® can generate real alternating current of up to 20,000 cycles per second, which would be equivalent to 900,000 revolutions per minute.
Speeds of 50,000 R.P.M. and above could previously only be used with bodies suspended in magnetic fields.
Precision in speed control.
Precision in speed control, for many applications today, is of great importance, and will be even more important when Ortronic® technology becomes widely used in hydraulics.
With Ortronic®, frequency precision is 20 microseconds per cycle, or 0.001%.
8. INCREASE OF REAL POWER AND USEFUL LIFE OF THE GENERATORS.
9. LOWER POWER GENERATORS CAN BE USED.
10. NO HARMONICS.
Harmonics should not be confused with the “Harmonic Analysis” of Joseph Fourier (1768-1830), who died before Tesla was born.
Harmonics are frequencies that are integer multiples or submultiples of a fundamental frequency.
Distortion is a comparison between two different functions, e.g.: the sinusoidal wave is distorted with regard to the Ortronic® wave.
In order to calculate the distortion with Fourier’s series, the electricity is considered to be vectorial, in the knowledge that it is not, and under that false consideration, the mathematical processor, ignorant of electricity, breaks it down into harmonics.
Conclusion: Ortronic® does not generate harmonics.
All the converters on the market use the same technology, pulse width modulation (PWM), as shown in the figure to the right.
PWMs are energy packets, all or nothing, containing many harmonics. Each packet is one frequency and it is usual to use over 10,000 packets.
With PWMs, in order to obtain the sinusoidal wave, it is necessary to filter the packets.
The Ortronic® wave does not require filters.
Ortronic® does not use PWM technology; it forms the wave by direct sequential integration from the batteries or direct current supplies. There are no energy cuts in any sections of the half-cycle.
13. NEW GENERATION OF INTELLIGENT EQUIPMENT.
LIMITATIONS OF THE ORTRONIC® I SYSTEMS
The batteries are the weak point of the systems because they have a limited life, are heavy, occupy too much space and lose energy in the charge and discharge process, and also the small losses due to auto-discharge.
Cannot be used as active power multipliers because they don't increase the power of the generator, neither generate new power from the reactive energy.
For users connected to the grid are only profitable when the priority is to avoid blackouts for the damages and nuisances caused by them.
If there are no blackouts, the Ortronic® systems are not profitable to save energy to the users connected to the electrical grid, for the cost of the batteries, the short life of them and the energy losses during the charge and discharge process. These losses are independent of the quality of the batteries.
