Latest: No back torque generator.

@broli. The brush will be the generator as it is fixed near a rotating magnetic field. The coil will therefor just be a conductor to close the current-loop, and not be a generator at all - even with plenty of windings/turns. At least this is how I strongly beleive it will work.  Vidar.

If this is what you believe then I would recommend you NOT to build anything. The stationary wires can't be any source of generation like I said earlier. One wire comes in and the outer goes out so they cancel eachother's field and they are invisible to the rotating magnets.

One has to carefully analyze all the velocity vectors of this system to come to a conclusion. The simplest thought experiment is the linear one. If you understand that then you'll understand what I'm trying to do. Imo the mistake people make is thinking that uniform movement of a whole system doesn't matter. Sure newton told us a frame moving at constant speed is a reference frame. But this does not apply to EM.

When a conductr is moving over a magnet it will induce an EMF wether said magnet is attached to the conductor doesn't matter. Usually the same conductor will induce another EMF which cancels out the first one and brings 0 result. But in the designs I have been posting the total EMF is non 0. Think about it. Why does it matter wether the magnet is stationary or not. The magnetic field is a property of space/aether or w/e you want to call it. This is the absolute reference frame. Imagine taking a snapshot at some given time from this outside frame of reference and analyzing all the velocity vectors and then calcultating the forces.

Below you see a very simple linear setup that should prove the point. The front and back parts are what cause the EMF. The left and right sides are what will make you think about relative motion and what not.

Now that I think about it the latest design doesn't even need to have the point of rotation that close to the setup. It can be arbitrary far which helps increase that velocity like you see below.

At least now I can test it on the rim of my bicycle wheel.

Do you think the smallest stranded litz wire ,type 7 0r 8 maybe,might pick it up better rather than just one solid wire?
