Magnet Myths and Misconceptions

[MarkE]

@MarkE,

Take a look at Thane's latest bi-toroid video. He clearly demonstrates the "Infinite Efficiency" of his transformer:

This is beyond stupid.  All he has done is build a transformer with a ton of leakage inductance.  Given a circuit consisting of Z₁ in series with Z₂ where |Z₁| >> |Z₂|, one can change |Z₂| all day long getting big percentage changes in the power transferred to / from Z₂ without changing the power through Z₁ or drawn from the supply significantly.  If I want to fool my instruments all I have to do is make the ratio: Z₁/Z₂ greater than the resolution of my instruments.

Leakage Inductance or I like to use the term "Loose Coupling" is a Requirement!

It does NOT always mean Loss! A Generator has leakage inductance but it still Separates Charge!

"Leakage inductance derives from the electrical property of an imperfectly-coupled transformer whereby each winding behaves as a self-inductance constant in series with the winding's respective ohmic resistance constant, these four winding constants also interacting with the transformer's mutual inductance constant. The winding self-inductance constant and associated leakage inductance is due to leakage flux not linking with all turns of each imperfectly-coupled winding.

The leakage flux alternately stores and discharges magnetic energy with each electrical cycle acting as an inductor in series with each of the primary and secondary circuits.

Leakage inductance depends on the geometry of the core and the windings. Voltage drop across the leakage reactance results in often undesirable supply regulation with varying transformer load. But it can also be useful for harmonic isolation (attenuating higher frequencies) of some loads.[1]

Although discussed exclusively in relation to transformers in this article, leakage inductance applies to any imperfectly-coupled magnetic circuit device including especially motors."

I still would like to see some documentation on the claimed "O.U." from that coil Chris posted.  If he has done it, great, Nobel prize time,
if not, then maybe he will learn something about measurements that he did not know.

This should be big news......let's see it.

Yes, and that map will be of a figure 8/peanut shape. But the steel laminate dose not jump over the center of the dipole because of an even pull force in each direction, it seems to jump because at the center of the dipole there is an even amount of negatively and positively charged particles, and the net reaction on the steel laminate is 0.

Where is there any evidence for these alleged "particles"?  Do these particles have mass or momentum?  What can we do to detect these alleged particles?

What do you contend the force on a chunk of permeable material that is close to a magnet is proportional to?  Express it any way that you feel comfortable with, but be as specific as you can.  When we can hone your contention down to accepted scientific terms, then we can devise a test or set of tests against the contention.

A Great person once said: "I don't care that they stole my idea . . I care that they don't have any of their own"

You are welcome to use My Ideas/Work if you don't have any or your own!

Good Luck!
