1 Mechanical setups / Bedini systems / Re: For Stefan: About the Bedini Motor/Generator on: April 07, 2009, 06:02:34 PM
Hi guys,
What I have been thinking about for a while now is to use centrifugal and fly wheel forces in addition to the Bedini circuit. What I propose doing is to use a 2" X 2" steel bar I have that is 10 ft. long.
The bar weighs about 136 lbs. I plan to put a fairing on the bar to make it as aerodynamic as possible.
I would use the Bedini circuit “drive†coils at the outer ends of the bar (5 ft. from center).
At the center I propose to have a hub that will accommodate a good sized PM turbine to extract power from.
I think that if I had the Bedini “drive†coils at 3 ft. and 5ft. from the hub along with some adroit switching I should see some good results do to the fact that I could drive the “flywheel†and use the coils like a transmission i.e. start with the 5 ft coils and go to the 3 ft coils as the speed came up.
If needed, I could always put another “flywheel bar†diagonal the main one. It would not need to be 10 ft, it could be 6 ft in length. More “drive coils†more power.
The Bedini “drive coils†would just be to turn the “flywheel†as efficiently as possible. They would obviously be driven by and recharge batteries. The main power would be harvested from the PM turbine at the hub.
I even thought that I could put a vertical shaft on it and run it threw the roof of the shop so when the wind did blow I would have a hybrid device. I am not in a good wind area so wind only would not be efficient.
I will use the spindle of a truck for the hub.
I know it will be a behemoth and cost a few shekels but I am not getting any younger and I need a project like this to keep me off the streets and out of trouble Grin
I have the bar already, I have the room in the shop, I have the motivation and I have been reading the forums for quite a while.
What do you think?

Hi all,
This post has been up now for12 days and no reply. I don't know why.
All I want is to know if a Bedini motor i.e. dc pules motor has enough HP / Torque / etc. to do some real work.
Where should I go to persue these questions? What forum?
Thanks for your help,
Dougotio

This forum is dead untill you show them a faked video.
Broli,
I have seen your posts many times. Thank you for the reply.
I want to start gathering the bits to put this thing together.
I will post on the other forum.
Thanks again,
Dougotio

>>Bedini motors work on DC electromagnetic repulsion of North Pole natural magnets, usually, or always, on a specially built wheel. The srongest magnets would produce the greatest torque. Whether or not that's enough to produce usable work depends on things like friction and inertia from your pendulum. 136 lbs sounds like a lot. Getting it up to maximum speed could take awhile, but then---on the positive side---it becomes a flywheel, right?
Possibly a diagram of what you propose would help?
