MylowHJ Replication - Discussion

[wattsup]

@builders

OK here we are. This thread is for Mylow Replication - Discussion. We welcome builders and serious collaborators. Any talk of any defamatory nature will be removed from the thread because we want this thread to be solely for the technical aspects of member builders.

I would also ask that all builders open their own thread located here;
http://www.overunity.com/index.php?board=117.0
and use the title convention as follows "Mylow Replication - username".

Other members should not post in builders threads unless it is very pertinent because we don't want to end up with builder threads having 100 pages. Keep discussions here. This will be easier for builders to following since they won't have to wade through endless pages for specific build specs.

So gather up your tools and come on down.
I will keep this first post location to eventually provide master links, etc.

Glad to see a new thread....heavy vibrations..make a good novel.  I am a long time mag motor experimenter and i am trying some smot variations and find all your work interesting. I am also praying for a viable PMM.

Anyway pls builders help me with a inexpensive source of the rotor mags.. cheapest I find is about 4 dollars a piece..
also I am ancious to see clanzers workup??  and I wish that Queue's 3rd video showed some stator involvement just to see for ourselves the reaction or lack...pls

thanks for any info
ps I have looked  at most if not all of the published info

@queue and everybody.

I am wondering why in queue video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SHCgXWN-15A there is less deceleration entering into the last set of 7 magnets then the first 2 sets of 7. Queue any thoughts - are the measurements exactly the same?

It seems to me that the major problem facing builders is that facing a salesman, closure.

How does the gap know that there is a long string of gates on either side?
The customer has to be confused so he doesn't realise he has got to the point of no return.

In designing gears one chooses prime numbers for the teeth of meshing pairs so that wear is evened out. It is possible that the same kind of technique could be used here. Mylow has already used this to some extent by breaking up the rotor magnets into groups and having a gap. His intuitive idea could be extended by having random sized groups and gaps. Think of it as confusing the closing gap by having a lot of small waves of different wavelengths so that no big wave can slosh around to raise the walls at the end. Probably the only ratio which has to be kept constant is that between the pitch of the stator poles and the pitch of the rotor magnets. The optimum pitch for this could be found by repetition on a given group of rotor magnets, prime number 7, say.
