HPG/D, Carbon?

[jadaro2600]

There's an abundance of information available about unipolar / homopolar dynamos and generators out there; if someone has done the research, could you please post your links about these devices here, the section is rather DePalma oriented.

Has anyone considered using a carbon disk rather than a metal rotor.  Such a thing could be configured to be of certain size and density - these things could be variably constructed but remain the same overall dimensions, this would lend to the effective study of the density effects of the disk without alter dimensions.

The most important conclusion I made was that the homopolar motor does not work like most of the Internet tells you. I halted my research due to the lack of support.

Here are some important websites I came across during my research:

http://www.stardrivedevice.com/over-unity4.html (currently dead)

This following paper is what opened my eyes:

If you understand that then you truly see how magnetic fields act on moving charge.

Thankyou broli,



I've long been disillusioned by the HPG; it's almost an artifact.  I suppose it lack continuity in research because it keeps people confused and coming to conclusions which deviate from the mainstream.
