Simple Experiment: Extraction of Energy from Permanent Magnets

[dieter]

All this 95%, 96% talk is just dogmatizing. If that is a word.


Anyway, I did the same test with a tiny 100 uF cap, again at 7vdc. The ratio of reaction was again the same with the various PMs. The coil was not pushed away, only shaked a certain amount. Clearly the cap fully fired in all tests.


So, if the scepticals theory is right (95% etc), then, by using this 100uF cap, there should be some kind of limit: a PM size or strength, that represents a 100% efficiency, and from which any further increase of PM strength will have no additional effect? And where exactly would that limit be?


At least that should be easy to test.


An other thing you must consider is: As the pulse pushes in this test, coil and PM are at Rest. Due to inertia the coil is just starting to fly away, but has already stored the main repelling push as momentum. It will generate its secondary field the faster it flies, which is at peak after the significant part of the primary pulse. So a certain phase shift may also play a role here.

Well, if you put a magnet near coil with DC pulse or AC current, magnet will vibrate, so would bigger magnet vibrate more? this vibrating magnet inside another coil = induction.

PolaczekCebulaczekz,
you may have misunderstood the question. Of course we know induction.


Referring to my last paragraph, there may be a diffrence, depending on whether the parts start at rest, compared to an ongoing rotation in a motor.


In the latter, the fieldstrength is already decreasing when the repelling pulse is fired.


Anyhow, at the basis of the experiment described, is there a certain upper limit of PM strength, above which no further repelling can be achieved?


According to the sceptical theory there must be such a limit. Where is it?

MH good to see you back, you were missed.

BTW my guitar amp goes to 11 

Thanks Ion, I am here in 'lite mode.'  Tell your drummer to be careful!

The limit is 100%.  You can approach it asymptotically but never get there.
