MylowHJ Replication - Discussion

[wattsup]

According to Mylow, the width of the bar mag rotors needs to be 2 stators plus a gap, with the 2 stator design. The bar magnets are through magnetized, N or S pole facing up.

2 rotors plus a gap would be the two rotors and the gap between them, then you would also have to add the next gap as well. That would technically make 2 rotors plus 2 gaps wide for the stator. If the gap is half a rotor width, we could summarize by saying the stator it three rotor widths.

On the other end, if the rotor is 2 inches long, each stator shoudl be 1 inch.

This is what I understoond from one of his build videos.

But then again, I am sure any slight variations of the above could be easilly compentated for by putting the stators closer or farther apart, higher or lower. That will be the main work.

Added: I just received my 4 ceramic ball bearings. Now ready to give all parts to my metal shop guy and get this wheel finished while I order my magnets. All in good time.

If you drop a strong magnet down a copper pipe the magnet falls in slow motion.
This is because the magnet falling creates an electromagnetic field in the pipe.
I believe this principle is at play here on the aluminum disk, 
and is overcoming the sticky spot in the gap. 
I know this has already been mentioned here before, but I just
wanted to mention, this is my theory on how this works too.
Another consideration here is the Faraday Disk principle.
Magnets attached to a conducting disk set up a Faraday Disk.


Prof. Dr-Ing. Meyl believes permanent magnets collect cosmic energy and transform it into magnetism.
If this is true then a Permanent Magnet Motor doesn't violate any laws of physics,
it is just an energy collector like a solar cell. 
We just need to find a way to harness the energy collected.

Keep up  the good work, I think we're on to something here.

Dropping a magnet in a tube results in RETARDING the motion of the magnet, due to the induction of eddy currents and their opposing magnetic fields in the material of the tube. Conversely if the magnet is stationary and you try to slide the tube over it, the tube's motion will be retarded.

I have shown that the mere presence of a stator magnet in Mylow's position retards the motion of the disk by around 40 percent--that is, the eddy drag makes the disk stop 40 percent faster than it would with no stator in place.

So, Mylow has hit upon a configuration that not only provides considerable thrust (so much that even when the stator mount is removed, he still has to keep the wheel from turning with his hands; see the glass table video) but also neutralizes this eddy drag (which, BTW, should be slowing down the disk in the gaps between rotor magnet groups...but it doesn't...) or converts it into thrust.

And he's done this in EIGHT, no, now NINE different configurations of magnets.


Do Professor Meyl's "beliefs" generate any testable hypotheses? What exactly is "cosmic energy?"

Do you think that rotor magnets turning with the rotor disk will set up a Faraday Disk? And, if so, how could this produce thrust without external input of power, since there aren't any brushes or axial feeds? What's being pushed against to generate thrust? It isn't the stator on its mount; that is clearly too light and unsupported to create thrust on the disk.

Are those ceramic bearings the exact duplicate of what Mylow has in his motor?

@AbbaRue

There may be a link but the stator is rather far from the alu-plate and I do not know if the magnet/copper tube effect could be extended also to aluminum.

I am wondering however if anyone ever figured out a way to connect a magnet to an oscilloscope to see if there are any specific waveforms. Imagine if that was possible.

@nyctuber

Thanks.

@TK

No. Mylows bearing is standard. He did mention once about ceramic bearings so this is why I wanted to used them. I figure metal bearings on metal casing will cause some drag if it is magnetised whereas ceramic bearings will not.

@All

I am putting up a build spec on my wheel as I will also use this to give this to the machine shop. You will notice I have two wheels that I will try out, plus the smaller discs and center cylinder are bigger then Mylows dimensions. I have done this on purpose as I want to see if more mass creates more inertia under the same non-fixed-axled wheel design and if it will afford the wheel some gyro effect.
