Working Magnetic Motor on you tube??

[CLaNZeR]

@CLaNZeR,

Did you observe a similar effect with the original @alsetalokin's 13-station base?

@Omnibus

You stated you have your rig and that:

I want to report that the initial experiments are very promising. After the initial spin a definite acceleration is observed which so far still cannot be sustained as long as @alsetalonkin's but the effect is definitely there. I will restrain at this point from posting a video or quantitative results which I will present to you later.

Could you please report your findings as well mate, we are all in this together and it is good to share

Cheers

Sean.

@CLaNZeR,

Same here. I've a very similar experience to yours. Waiting for my tachometer to arrive to get some more definitive picture of what's happening. Wish I had a RS-232 tachometer.

Oops ... postings crossed in the mail ... I think I just replied to that. Wish I had some quantitative results at hand to report.

Qualitatively, it appears that the effect kicks in for a few seconds and then the contraption again goes out of sync to kick in again later for a few seconds as it winds down. This needs to be observed quantitatively, though. One thing is for sure, many times the smooth wind down of a lone rotor (not surrounded by stator magnets) differs substantially from the wind down of the rotor with stator magnets placed at certain positions. Detecting acceleration during these hitches quantitatively  will be most significant.

Testing by varying the height and distance of the stator is essential, of course.

Apparantly no one has yet considered changing the angle of the stator axle.  Having all the magnets spinning in the same plane almost guarantees no power gain.  This one dimensional approach has consistently failed.

Theory: 

Al's device "worked" because his stator was accidentally mounted at a slight angle.  Optimizing this angle will produce more power than you know what to do with.  When you build your computer controled machine to vary the distance and height of the stator, be sure to include rotation in two axis as well.  Working with the stator axle always straight up and down limits you to one dimension, when you should be thinking in at least three.  Placing the stator at an angle to the rotor changes everything.  This is why you see some replications work and others fail.  While everyone is trying to be "exact" and keeping the rotor and stator parallel, the only ones that come close to working are the ones with the stator "a little bit off".  Make it a little bit more "off" and see what happens.

@DA,

We're trying to be as true to the original as possible. Modifications later. Where did  you see that the stator is at an angle with respect to the rotor?
