Beslaurentius code or how to harness the Mikovic pendulum power on a Bessler way

[mondrasek]

Laurent,

Here is the updated sim.  WM2D is having much difficulty now that there are so many more elements to calculate.

In the case of this type of wheel, if you cannot get it to run with only two mechanisms at 180 degree spacing, adding additional mechnisms will not make it work.  In fact, it will work even worse.  Likewise, if it were to produce a usable output torque with just the two mechanisms, adding additional mechanisms will increase the output torque.

Thanks,

M.

@mondrasek

back for along journey i can only thank you to organise that sim for me and of course for all the interested people

i have a different idea on the 2 pendulums versus more pendulums 

as , on my practical wheel,  when the 2 active pendulums are stopped ,this happens at around 2 and 8 o'clock   and at this points  the 2 pendulums are    as i would say "engaged " for the next step to go arround     they need a slight push to go

that's why i think that the challenge is to get the the power of a the back track pendulum power at 4 o'clock ( in the mean time the counter pendulum at 10 o'clock need almost  no energy to travel)

i am something tired now to try your sim

i will be back on the thing this week end

so may  i ask you to organise a 3 and 4 pendulum sim so we have all the possibilities  thank for your patience

and if it turns      champaign       but no illusion must be the rule 

cheers

Laurent
