The electric field of a magnet

[Dave45]

I think a diodes would be needed with the coil windings, this will allow the windings to only conduct one way, and stop anymore action reaction responses with the coils.

Interesting stuff Dave.  ;]

What would you think about winding 1 half of a toroid one direction and the other half in the other direction? Do you think the electrical fields would still work in the same way?

This is my understanding of the electric field as it applies to a toroid, one thing we have to remember is one side of the electric field is cw and the other side is ccw, if you look at a galaxy or a pancake coil it is configured the same, the fields move out along the magnetic field in its perspective direction with its angular configuration either cw or ccw.

But the toroid seems to be different, I froze a toroid in ice, and as you can see the electric field circles the entire toroid, something else I have noticed is the electric field wants to be parallel with the earths surface, in other words our coils, if using a solenoid configuration need to be vertical.

There is more to learn if you want to see the fields put the coil you want to work with in water and freeze it powered up, it takes about 24 hours to freeze the electric field will be the last to freeze.

the coil in the first pic was froze with 12 vdc and 12 vac in the next pic

[Dave45]

The coils in the pics above were froze in a vertical position
This coil was froze in a horizontal position, notice the fields seem all mixed up, not separated like the vertical coils.
Can the position of our coils effect the outcome, it seems so.
