Hey resonanceman:

Bill Muller would always tell me about "random polarities" in the very special black sand material he would use in his cores.
He said the ferrites inside the amorphous black sand particle would have crystalline structures encasing it,
if you looked at it with microscope,
and these crystalline structures were actually lava from volcano that cooled down, "freezing" the ferrites inside of the cooled lava, and so he said what happens is this makes the  the ferrites  all pointing in different directions, randomly, and this is why his big hockey puck neodimium magnets would just glide past them; not as easily as if aircores, but 100 times better than anything like iron....

So I dont know if that idea of sticking magnets on each side of core when the epoxy mixture dries is good idea, since it wouldfor sure align the ferrites in the mixture.

however, it should be advantage if a strong polarity to core is the idea...

anyways I dont know where you heard of making cores like that I am pretty sure bill Muller did not do it like that since he mentioned random polarities in the black sand maybe a dozen times....

also try super glue instead of epoxy in any blacksand/magnetite/iron powder cores - its stronger and easier and quicker to work with...it will dry like rock...

Hey richard

The times I visited BM years ago he never had any coils like as is shown in your video - he told me:
just wind back and forth and make a barrel shape,
make the cores the same width as the magnets,
use the strongest magnets you can get,
have one more, or one less, coil postion for number of magnet in rotor.
He said all-N is OK but you get more power from N-S, and also have width of magnets the same distance as between the magnets in rotor, measured edge to edge......all that said, its all way differnt than what Romero did really....

anyways my question on the new Muller neo-gen, is I see you guys now have the cogging  zero in "rotation" of rotor,
BUT what about the lenz-law "lugging: of coils while coils are under load, such as when coils run lights or other motor or something like resistive load???
does that coil-design get rid of that problem too? Or at least decrease it alot??

...i can see how having the coils much thicker towards backside of core would sort of bias the core to backside, (moving the "bloch wall" back further of core) much like the magnets in Romero;s machine do....I wonder if those stepped-tapered coils in the neo-gen do something like this?
I see real big advantage of coils in the stepped-tapered design to be a very very strong method to mount coils and cores to stator plates, and would make it impossible pull them out from stator if for example holes are drilled into thick stator plates also in the same stepped-tapered dimensions, and so then drop the coils in there, screw on backing plate, and no way would they ever be able to pull out from stator plate...

Please let me know the details of your ferrite.  I wonder if I am waaay out of range on the permeability or if my gap is not in the correct range to attempt any tuning right now.

@mondrasek: More info about the cores: They are made of iron powder, M40. Inductivity constant AL is 16. So inductivity of my coils should be 16*400² = 2.56mH. If magnetized they seem to be much more powerful than the hard ferrite I've been using before. They are 26mm long, I might shorten them later if the air gap needs to be smaller or if the distance to biasing magnets need to be greater.

For your consideration:

@rfmmars

Thanks for your understanding. Being critical when shown purported working devices does not preclude one from being involved in OU research. I have spent so much money on generator systems to know, so before I get involved in any other magnetic rotary device, I will be looking at all the angles way in advance. lol

Looking at the generator coil in your video, can we also conclude that having the majority of the coil wound further away from the rotor magnets helps in limiting the drag that the rotor/coil would have undergone if it was wound as a full coil since a rotor energized coil also becomes a magnet in its own right while it is under load.

When I say drag, I am not referring to coging since for me coging means how the rotor can free wheel without loading the generator coils. So when you say you have solved the coging problem, for me this does not mean you have solved the drag problem which occurs when the coils are under load, or can you clarify what you mean.

Also as @resonanceman suggests the importance of aligning the core material is an absolute and logical requirement to assist in having the energy reach down the core to the thicker parts of the coil.

wattsup

You are correct, I first had to solved the coging problem of just letting the (rotor) wheel spin freely. The coging from the load is yet to be addressed.
