Simple generator

[lumen]

You may have already envisioned this concept as it is based on your design as you can see.
The picture shows the position where the field in the core is almost non-existent, but as rotation occurs, the field becomes very strong and rotor direction is always moving in the same direction as any generated Lenz forces.

See also the animation.

Hi Lumen,

Interesting setup, did you mean the upper and the lower rotor arms (which the magnets are fixed to) are made of ferromagnetic materials? (except the shafts of course)
I think the setup would also work with non-ferromagnetic rotor arms, right?

Thanks for showing this idea, looks promising. Maybe you have attempted a test setup on it too?

Hi Gyula,

It would help contain some unwanted stray fields if the arms were ferromagnetic.
I'm looking to finish my current project in a week or so and should be able to move onto some fun projects like this device.

Broli may have something operational where he can get some output to input data by then.

Sorry, I don't get it. Both arms rotate parallel?

No, the arms rotate in opposite directions. View the animation file.
The image seems to indicate they rotate as one, but that would not produce any current in the windings.
