Video #25, “Rick’s Pipe Dream” Magnetic Motor-Generator Project

Tuesday, May 11, 2010

25 Comments

This video is a continuation of track tests shown in videos #22 through 24, and shows additional tracking modifications and testing. The second track layout is modified at the tail end to give less linear movement to the stator carriage, and the gap between the stator magnet and rotor magnets is lowered to 1 inch [...]

This is the second in a series of three videos (#14, 15 and 16) describing and demonstrating my preferred “cat’s meow” magnet configuration. I show how, when operating the stator magnet 1.75 inches above the rotor magnets, movement of the MOSTAT (moving stator) is nearly effortless and yet the rotational forces are still quite good.

This video is a continuation of videos #22 and 23, and shows the configuration and testing of the second test track layout. A pull test is also shown, which demonstrates the resistive pressure encountered between the track and stator carriage wheels during the previous tests. The pull test shows that the resistive drag force encountered [...]

This video shows the various components of the stator tracking system as assembled, and explains how they work together to achieve stator movement. The procedures and methods for performing preliminary tests of varying timing track layouts are also demonstrated. The actual tests will be shown in 3 follow-up videos which are a continuation of this [...]

This video provides an update on the build status of the Pipe Dream prototype. All components of the stator tracking system are now completed and mounted on the Pipe Dream apparatus. Several timing track test strips have been laid out on Masonite arcs which can be attached to the polycarbonate ring shown in the previous [...]

This video shows the 26+5/8″ diameter 3/4″ birch plywood flywheel ring which has been attached to the bike wheel, and a spin test is performed with the stator at full height above the rotor. The flywheel has some runout that throws the wheel off balance, which of course is a negative aspect that needs to [...]

In this video I demonstrate how the stator arm can be readjusted for use in a position where the stator magnet is aligned across the wheel rim, and used to produce continuous rotational movement. I may have moved the stator magnet more than is actually necessary with this technique, since the movement required is only [...]
