BTW, relative to eddy currents...

In this post: http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/mylow_magmo/message/1436 is a copy of an e-mail from (ying/yang disk maker?) "Bob" to Sterling with the following...


...I would assume that the stator has both N and S pointing down at the disk (and I'm not sure there's a good way around that), but it would be interesting to know the results from none/N-down/S-down rundowns.

Told you so. Long ago. In many stator orientations. Posted graphs and everything.
But I did not do the individual pole comparisons. See how one's theoretical models affect cognition?

I'd say that's a bit rich coming from a guy who is still selling plans to a possible fake, he even admits himself it's a possible fake, yet he continues.

Mark,

You can say this to OverUnity.com on my behalf.

I remain upset with OverUnity.com

It is never appropriate to be extremely rude to people.  The level of abuse there is too much.

Sterling asked me to post this. I had suggested an appology would be nice.

"Until I hear the they have done something to put a tighter control on inappropriate posts, I will maintain my boycott.

I realize that I tend to be quite harsh myself sometimes, so it is a bit hypocritical of me to expect OverUnity to hold to a higher standard.  But I just feel that the level to which they stooped was wrong."

I suppose it being an alloy probably explains it, but Is it significant that magnets appear to be exhibiting Lenz's Law (or just attraction) to this degree on ALUMINUM? I thought Aluminum was normally considered basically magnetically nonreactive. That magnet slid pretty slowly down that aluminum bar.

Aluminum is slightly diamagnetic, IIRC, but that has nothing to do with the eddy current effect. Any conductor will produce it. Moving conductor wrt mag field, induces current with opposite field in conductor which repels orig. field and or retards relative motion, energy is lost through Joule heating of the conductor, it is always an energy loss (yes, even in your electric meter.)
