Wow, that's a really neat design.  I wish we could use the Overunity Prize money to build the most promising ideas on here from a vote.  Excellent work Butch.  Here's a quick animation in FEMM of the design.  I made the magnets too large in the animation, so the moving magnet doesn't go over all the way, but it still works well.

Blainiac, thank you so much for the FEMM! That really is a huge help. I wanted to mention something interesting I think you will like. If you were to power up the coils with an external power supply and they increased the strength of the magnetic field in the iron cores it would not effect the magnets as far as them being pulled toward each other. This also means that during the normal operation as a generator the magnetic field in the coils does not impose a drag on the moving magnet. It's a way I check these designs for true overunity. If it is a drag free generator then when you try to run it as a motor it will not work. That shows it's a drag free generator design. Thanks again for the FEMM, I need a partner in crime if you want to join me.

Butch,


That's exactly what I've been thinking as well.  Any time I'm working on designs that are based on your concepts, that's what I look for as well.  The pseudo solid principle is definitely something that has merit, and I wish I had materials to build your designs.  Every design I've been working on has been utilizing some form of this.  No other concept has came close to convincing me like these have!

I'd love to help you as much as I can, my time and money is limted (it seems we all have this problem).  I can do FEMM work, anything in 2D that can be done.  For anything that overlaps, it's a bit more difficult but there are workarounds.  Any time you need an FEMM done let me know, I'll see what I can do!  I know having the group disbanded makes things more difficult.


Oh, and in the FEMM, if soft ferrite or lamintations are used, there is no cogging torque or drag on the magnets at any interval, it's as if the magnet is moving along and can't see anything else going on.  It's exciting.
