A good brief review of an AC generator.

Brad,

Not shown, but the caps in these generators you and Luc are using are for filtering a rectified AC (produced from a residual magnetic field) in order to produce a crude DC field coil supply?

Ok,so here is my first test on the reactive generator setup. Please note that this is only to show the effect that the reactive circuit has on the exciter circuit within the generator,and in no way represents accurate measurements of P/in and P/out. It was to show the power already being consumed within the generator itself via the exciter circuit-something that was over looked in other test seen regarding this setup.

Thanks TinMan for testing the circuit and pointing to the exciter field as the possible source of the effect. I will perform new tests of this kind to better understand the interaction between these two circuits and post my findings.

Thanks for taking the time to do all this excellent replication and sharing your results.

That Stefan isn't aware of, nor agrees with my solution to this problem should come as no surprise.

Okay, I shouldn't speak for Stefan

You mean valid topical questions you ignore like this one about your moto/gen setup? Grow some balls Luc. You're not garnering any respect by whining about and ignoring important pertinent questions. OK, admittedly there was deserved hit.

I'm pretty sure I know the answer to this.

If I would understand or know what your question is referring to would help the chances of it being answered!

Admittedly, you are learning as you blindly plow forward, but along the way it would benefit you immensely for you to stop and seriously consider everything knowledgeable people are conveying to you. You might not only learn faster, but also get the opportunity to fine tune your experiments in such a way that you reach a conclusion much faster and with more knowledge gained. Like for example when I posted that the MOT was not required to get the same effect, which you ignored.

As for learning!... I do agree that I have learned much as I've been blindly moving forward. However, if I was a knowledgeable person I would not be doing any of this as I would know it all.
So to me one has to make a choice, do we accept the existing technology of burning fossil fuel for over 100 years is the only technology we have to date because the know it all say it is and do nothing about it because they know it all?

What if I decide not to buy the know it all lunch?... then why should I use everything they know if I'm looking for something different?... how would that work?

Sorry if I missed your post the MOT is not needing before Hob pointed it out to me. It could be I chose to come to that conclusion myself and not use the know it all or just missed your post. Can't remember which it was?

Are you saying that you don't understand this question???

Regarding your moto/gen setup, have you done any load-testing with it at all to determine at what load does the motor rpm begin to decrease an appreciable amount?

In regards to your other comments, sure, dream and explore, but at the same time why cut yourself off from the alternate conventional point of view?

Are you impervious to making errors? I know I am not. When someone with more experience tells me I should re-examine some assertion I've made, do I seriously consider it? Yes. Do I try to prove them wrong if I feel I am still right? Yes. Do I admit when I am wrong? Yes. Do I appreciate it when it turns out I am corrected? Yes.

Are you impervious to being fooled by something you do not understand? I know I am not. I have been fooled several times, but either I immediately corrected it myself, or someone else helped me do so.

Do I take the improbable as being most likely correct? No, not a chance. And no one should, especially in light of evidence presented by others proving otherwise.

Please note these links are for brushed rotor gen heads and not like the ones TinMan and myself are using. We are using brushless exciter rotor gen heads.
