    arggg!!! poised to strike I said? out loud? hahahah Well that was an overstatement if I ever made one. These iron filled cores make the cast bend when in between the magnets So back to the drawing table it is :(

    So I also still do not understand it. Please let me explain as far as I can. I also do not understand it... yet.. So when we take our 29 leg coil and fill a few cores with iron. Then there is an increase of field considerably higher than without. one wire without: 0.89 mT with: 1.3 mT 5...

    I respect that it is a jungle in the picture. But that is because I am not a realtor trying to sell a home. I am a guy that tries to convey what is going on here. Now I do welcome anyone that would like to see some things changed. like make it more obvious which wire is going where and stuff...

    ohh and of course I have a new hot topic. The larger the resistance is in a wire. the more an iron filled core will do in terms of field enhancement. this is my bold claim. And I am sticking to it for the time being.

    So I thought and go with 15 coil legs per unit rather than more as to make it more manageable to actually have them play nice while in service. I do think you are going to have to take my word for it else risk to stand challenged by me ;) Now given my reserves have just recently been recharged...

    argg. I both love it it when my superiors are correct all(most off) the time(s) else risk me running after my own tail all the time. But also hate it as it is slowing me down/ or even preventing me to get to where I want to get. But this is just a joke of sorts. I really respect the pushback...

    so disappointing that I went and checked on how to calculate dc rms based on ac peak voltage in a single phase setting and came to 9.8 vACpeak = vDCrms * SQRT(2) which works out to 6.92 vDCrms which in turn works out to a wattage of 58.2 when multiplying by 8.4 amps. Anyway since this was in an...

    actually it is disappointing. when I extrapolate in my mind I get no where near the gazillion Terra watts that is the goal :(

    if you are here for the party then why are you such a party pooper? hahahaha nah brother. keep it coming. ok less than 29 watts it is then. I will read up some more but even so. I think this base line coil is not disappointing is it?

    read them and wheep. 8.4 amps at 9.8 V 82 watts!!!! not too shabby for a mere 5x litz 0.4mm wire at 35-70-35 coil now is it? I just so long to be stood corrected!! Until such time I am moving forward. Going full scale.

    and in case yo are wondering why it is soo damned cold there? well that is because I stopped heating my gym. So what ever the temp outside is. some of it will be matched by the amount we are leaking.

    Building the sickest ® VAWT ever. Brilliant minds unite please!!

    the magnets do not show any signs of heat buildup what so ever. NO that is not true. I can see some of heat transfer. But by the time they have rotated it all has cooled down. NOW this is ! BIG worry for me. Because if we go full scale like we of course need to. Then there is no more...

    Building the sickest ® VAWT ever. Brilliant minds unite please!!

    WOW!! if this turns out to be correct than that means I should be aiming for this high temp epoxy again. So then we can start aiming much higher in terms of temperature. Ok so the maximum the enamal of the wires can be operated at prolonged exposure is 180C. This is not something I am looking...

    Building the sickest ® VAWT ever. Brilliant minds unite please!!

    hahah I told you lot before that you lot are probably correct most of the times. Well @Hedges again got it right ages ago it seems. In where he predicted that the magnets will not heat up all that much. The current configuration will just not allow for the magnets to heat up especially when...

    Building the sickest ® VAWT ever. Brilliant minds unite please!!

    ok running the motor at 15Hz will lead to the coil to overheat. I had to stop the test when I saw 72C so next up is 12.5 Hz. and the Hz at which the motor runs is different than that of the frequency of field reversals yes? we all see this yes? Sure they are related but not similar.

    I am soo happy to report that I am finally able to crawl towards where we need to get. Some coherent data. Not at all like my bond antics :) You see one of the issues also was that the whole PMA, because of my lack of just good craftsmanship, displayed all kinds of negative attributes that one...

    And just to make sure to make a separation in this thread into 2 main aspects * just random talk (of which I am a big contributor) * actual attempts at scientific goals I only care if one would all agree that the scientific goals were sound. NOT bonkers at all. Sure the surrounding parts do...

    BTW, I realize that there is a BIG BIG difference between what a PMA can do when pushing the limits. And what a turbine can provide based on the blade configuration. But my reasoning was that to leave no space for fraudsters to sell unwitting consumers obvious junk I thought it important to...

    this one is better as a schematic representation of the PMA magnet configuration so next to charting the field values on various relevant points and at relevant measurement angles I will also include * open circuit voltage against frequency (to see if there is (non)liniarity) * closed circuit...

    anyway I am going to do the following. Just hook up this test coil and hook up an amp meter while the coils is shorted. then just ramp up the motor speed until the coil stabilzes at 70C. then open up the coil to no longer be shorted and measaurew the voltage. and then we have our wattage...

    ohh I forgot to mention that these mT measurements are no longer taken from 10mm from the center of the core. but now from 5mm. as it more closly resembles what part of the electro magnetical (coils) field is exposed to the permanent magnetical (magnets) field.

    Building the sickest ® VAWT ever. Brilliant minds unite please!!

    so I am going to bring into measurement a lot of field values on a many of interesting points between magnet pair. And that of course includes the now non shown extra layer of magnets.

    Building the sickest ® VAWT ever. Brilliant minds unite please!!

    so please see another base line. Now the only thing I did not show here is the magnets on the opposing side. as that would clutter too much. Just trust that I am aiming for an 17mm spacing between this rotor and the one below or on top of it.
