Wankel Magnet Motor

[TheOne]

You need to get rid of the Distributor and the battery. I did this in another post already.

Here goes, are you familiar with power overlap in combustion engines? On your experiment with the tape on the CD try adding two more magnets spaced equally apart (120 degrees) on the cd. This way 2 magnets will push the other magnet passed the dead spot. You still won't get enough power to measure but will it run on it's own? Then try 5 layers on the same armature, now you have ten magnets pushing, you should find a little power being produced. You say all right wize guy try it, I'm going to just as soon as I find the magnets. To increase torque you will need to increase the diameter of the flywheel. The more powerful the magnets the more power. You are losing mechanical power at the distributor and inputting power to drive an electro-magnet, these may be power losses that are unnecessary. Something wrong with looking for something for nothing?

the only problem adding more magnet on the rotor is you need to pulse more the coil per rotation, so at the end, you use more current, adding more magnet on the rotor is good if you need more power from the motor

for this kind of motor i see its better to have 2 magnets in the rotor instead of 3 or more

You can also see it like this. Imagine a 2" x 1" neo magnet. That's not demagnetizing by itself.
Then break it into two 1" x 1" pieces. Now try to glue them back together like it was before.
Well no you can't because the two pieces are repelling each other like hell.

This is not so. If you break a magnet in that fashion, the two poieces
will not need sticking together. They will attract

At first:
N----------------------------S

after:
N----------S   N-------------S
Paul.

If the 2" long x 1" wide x 1" thick neo magnet is magnetized through it's thickness and broken
into two 1x1x1" magnets then you will put N to N and S to S when putting it back together.
Of course I meant it by this way, or else the question was meaningless.

At first:
N
|
S
after break:
N N
| |
S S

My wife held the magnet order up a couple of days, trying to buy them here. I notice most of the power is lost pushing straight against the armature. Just conceptualising here, doodling if you will. We need to find a way around that. I like the idea of using a CD holder for a load bearing flywheel though, very good on someones part. The bearing seems to be quite efficient. Has anyone tried placing 2 spirals above and below the plane of the flywheel magnet, maybe with the leading edges tipped toward the plane of the flywheel?

Can't wait till they get here, they're probably sending them ground UPS snail delivery.

The best angle for a rail gun is probably the best angle for the spiral. I haven't found it on the net yet, there are just so many ways to atack this, another thing to try might be making a spiraled v shaped rail inside and outside of the path of the flywheel magnet. Well I have 4 rolls of tape and I'm waiting inpatiently, that's the way I always wait.

Hy,

I have not the time to read your pr?vious posts but i show you an intersting id?a of a magnetic wankel
(I have to take time to read all of you, i'm french with so bad english and it take me a long time to understand each post)

This id?a come from "toto65" under a french ecologique forum named http://www.econologie.com





What do you think about ?

I know it's hard to build this kind of magnet but with a flexible pipe and magnet inside ?

Adding a coil and..... zou....

That looks like a real good idea to try. I was thinking of 2 sets making a curved railgun track. Someone said a great truth when they said most of the force is being directed at the armature. I was trying to get rid of that problem. Also I'm hoping 2 driven magnets drive a third magnet through the area you are pulsing, through with out a pulse.
