F.B.D.I.S.S.M - Flux.Boosted.Dual.Induction.Split.Spiral.Motor.

OK, I see what you mean.

In the original design, there is only one gate right?

Wrong, there is two so called gates, being the two electro magnets faced equally apart on the opposite sides of the mtor

maybe a coil wrapped directly around each magnet?

Using a magnet as electro magnet core will not provide powerful flux.
The permeability of a magnet is very low, almost like air.

I cannot see that this idea shouldn't work if the original design works.
The original design is nothing more than a slow way to approach the opposite pole in the stator!
The torque in such design is extremely limited due to the weak angle these magnets are set up with.
Do you agree Honk?

No, I don't agree. The angular force in a split spiral motor is not weak. It is really good actually.
The torque in the original split spiral design is calculated to be approx 40 to 52 ft-lbs. That's not very weak or limited.
You forget that you need the rotor need to build up momentum over distance to harvest the free energy.
If you fill the motor with to many poles you will get past a point where the Wankel will get more similar to an
ordinary electric motor. I believe the split spiral is the best design choice of the Magnetic Wankel motor.
The best way to enhance efficiency (COP) of this type of motor is to build a dual pancake motor using horse shoe
electro magnets. That way you can use the same two electro magnets to control two motors, thus doubling the COP.

Sorry for being so negative on your design comment.

Directions of Magnetization

The HK manufacturer Magtech has a page showing Directions of Magnetization of their products.

http://www.magtech.com.hk/index_product.htm.

Other pages there  give technical specs for different mag types.

Here it is.
The complete Autocad drawings and Mounting instructions on the F.B.D.I.S.S.M.
Anyone can get the parts manufactured by a laser or waterjet cutter company.

Please download and continue to spread the files among interested users.
I want to keep the motor totaly Open Source.

Also keep an eye on my posted Zipped Drawing Pack v1.0, now and then.
I will update the Zip file if any errors or improvements is discovered.

V1.0  Original release
V1.01 Pdf and Gif file added showing the entire motor from above view.
V1.02 All drawings was made in scale 1:1 and this is now stated in every file.

Hi Honk,
very well done,
just make a "2 floors"model,
where in the upper floor you have all magnet poles reversed,
so you can couple floor 1 and floor 2 with some iron core pieces,
so you use both magnet poles and have double the torque.
Hope it gets clear this way.

Regards, Stefan.

Thank you for your input.
I have planned to build dual pancake motor like you suggestion if the current model is successful.
On tuesday a salesman is coming to my office to give me a price quote on Supermalloy for the electro magnets.
He's got chinese connections and I hope this will lower the otherwise expensive price.
