hello, I need some help, I'm no expert on the subject but a while ago I managed to develop a magnetic motor and now my next goal is to generate energy, possibly more than it consumes. My question is (to those who are advanced in the way and may want to help a modest and inexperienced experimenter): What is the best way to extract, with coils, electricity from magnets to rotate and somehow eliminate Lens opposing laws?
My motor Features:
Approximate hourly consumption: 2 watts
Battery life: 2 hours on a cell phone battery (3.7 volts, 900 ma)
Rpm: 800 rpm
Magnets: 4 neodymium
Size of each: 40mm x 20 mm x 10 mm
Rotor size: 12 cm
I will appreciate any comments and sorry for my bad English.
Your English is fine, better than that of many native speakers, certainly, and I wish you luck and happiness in your efforts.
But your question reveals a slight problem already. You speak of "hourly consumption" of 2 Watts. The unit "Watt" is a unit of Power, not energy: it is a Joule of energy per second of time... thus, it already has a time element in it. One dissipates "2 Watts"...... as long as one is "burning" 2 Joules per second. So one can speak of "consumption" (dissipation really) of 2 Watts, or one can speak of an "hour's worth" of consumption of Joules: (Watts) x (seconds per hour) = Joules Per Hour.
So just say that your motor consumes, or dissipates, 2 Watts. However long it runs for, then you can calculate a number of Joules of total energy it used during that time.
So the Watt is a _rate_, and to speak of an hour's consumption of Watts is to confuse the rate of consumption with the quantity consumed.
I'm stressing this because it's a matter that seems to confuse many people. The _rate_ at which energy is used (power, in Watts, that is Joules per second) is not the same thing as the energy used (energy, in Joules.)
Now.... how to solve your real problem of getting more energy out than you put in..... I don't know and I'm quite sure nobody else does either. Everything I've tried personally has not worked, and there are sound theoretical reasons why they didn't work. My advice to you is to try to avoid wasting time and effort and money by travelling down paths that others have already tried-- and failed. Do your research and see what others have tried and what their results have been. Try to find a new "angle" or approach that hasn't already failed many times.
Good luck..... and don't mind the skeptics like me, we perform an important function, like dung beetles or plumbers. You can always blame us for distracting you when your device turns out not to work!
Please post at least 1 picture of it. Maybe we will have some ideas.
