Hi folks, well I'm working on a replication, though I will be using 5/16" diameter steel bolts with 24 gauge wire, had 6 already made from previous project, just need to make 4 more and am using 6 - 1" diameter neo magnets on 3/4" mdf rotor, 6" center to center of magnets.
Will be using 10 coils total or 5 per side.
Will use hall effect with TIP42. Will start with one coil pair drive.
Will use same 1" diameter neo magnets at back of coil/cores to reduce drag.

I've built similar setups previously, so this will be no problem, just have some drilling and coiling to do yet.

I am trying to get a team together to replicate this . One problem with replication can be , do you try to exactly copy  the working example or do you use materials to hand to save money . I plan to compromise by building a good shaft and rotor and then experimenting with the other bits .
           Here is an important question . What is the orientation of the magnets on top of the coils? If we assume that all rotor magnets are north pole up , are the magnets on top of the coils north pole up or south pole up . Also I need to learn more about Hall effect switches .Obviously , the motor drive coil needs to be energised as a magnet approaches it , and switched off as the magnet comes to its closest point to the coil . I am not quite clear at the moment what causes it to switch off at this point .

Hi folks, here's information from the Muller web site.

Guys, is it only me who doesn't understand or am I simply stupid:

I have currently a lot of trouble to estimate and guess which parts are needed to replicate this device, I don't even know where the circuit need to be attached, which coils are connected to where, where is the driver coil, how is it controlled, where are the rectifiers, whats the size of the magnets, how should they be aligned, how many magnets? is it only 8 magnets in the rotor, or is it 2x9(magnets below and on top of the 2 discs)+8 magnets(rotor) etc.

- to keep it short: I miss some organisation in here and I can't even start a replication without this information. And I'm asking myself how can any of you?

The only things I can guess is now:
"Ok, we have a different number of coils and magnets.
Somehow coils are coupled with one another through a rectifier.
Somehow a circuit with a transistor and a hall sensor is attached which does something.
Somewhere also is a capacitor with 4700µF and 20-40V which in the end will allow the selfrunner".

This allows too much juggling...

Sorry guys,

I had not yet seen the "Muller Generator - self running - Test1" looping video before I posted.

Good stuff Romero! I can't say I see any "problems" there.

Why isn't Stefan all over this yet? Has he seen the thread and video?

Reminds me of the Mike Window Motor a few years back.

Cheers,

PS. I've started a new thread on this at OUR.
