You may have seen the video of a heavy magnet being dropped on an aluminum plate with little impact, due to the braking effect of the aluminum.

With that in mind...what if the magnets on the above wheel were arranged in 2 rings...1 inner ring, and 1 outer ring along the outer edge of the wheel - with the wheel being stationary, and situated in front of a spoked aluminum wheel, which turns at a variable RPM.

Located closely behind the spoked wheel are 2 air coils directly across from the 2 magnet rings.

Now the question is...will the braking caused by the rapidly passing spokes alter the magnetic flow to the coils sufficiently to induce some type of high frequency current in the coils ?

Just though I'd toss that out there, just in case it may mean something.

THANKS CZR, BUT YOU KNOW MOST OF US ARE BRAIN DEAD AND VISUALIZATION IMPARED - CAN YOU SPARE US A PICTURE?

THANKS

Sorry Thane...I don't have the facility to do a visual...remember this is just an idea that occurred to me.

Essentially, its a spoked aluminum wheel spinning...with 2 rings of magnets in front and in behind the wheel, 2 opposing coils of the same diameter of their opposing magnet ring.

OK GWOT IT!
HOW MAWY SPOKEYS DWID YOU SWAY?

The number of spokes would have to be determined...as well as the right RPM.

I kind of wonder what type of current would come from that arrangement.

Would the current cycle in TPU like fashion ?

Seems like something worth exploring the more I think about it.
