Presenting... EMMA

Electro-Magnetic-Mechanical-Apparatus

This device has sufficiently moved beyond the axial variant of the Robert Adams generator that I have been building, so I've given her a name. Look through my previous build logs if you aren't familiar with this device already. The name also perfectly describes what this device is - anything you want it to be. Once you start breaking down all of the components into what they do at the mechanical, magnetic and electric levels - you'll start to understand what I mean.

   

Here's a summary of the prototype as it currently stands:

24 x 20x20mm N40 Neo's, 15Kg holding force each, 6 magnets per rotor, 4 rotors, ~90Kg combined holdng force on each face of each rotor
12 x pulse coils, wired into two sets (3 x CW + 3 CCW), pulsing 4 rotors every 60 degrees. ~12 ohm per set 
12 x generator coils, 6 CW wired in series, 6 CCW wired in series, joined via inner windings. ~45 ohm per set
4 x ceramic bearings, 1 on each end, 2 in the middle
8mm, 600mm linear shaft. Total rotating mass - 2.4Kg

This device represents everything I've learnt over the last few years and proves that overunity, free energy and perpetual motion are all possible, achievable and accessible. Most of this knowledge has already been shared by those that have come before us, however there is ancient knowledge being unearthed. And it is this knowledge that I've used to help correlate what is worth persuing and what is BS.

From all of this there are 3 main principles (gain mechanisms) I am using:

The first is balancing flux density and pressure. 1+1=3. Two magnets are always much stronger than they are individually, and as there are magnets on both ends of the generator coils, there is a significant amount more flux flowing through the cores than a single magnet. 4d=2/2d. This basically says, 4 rotor faces at d distance from coils = 2 rotor faces at d/2 distance from coils, on the same shaft. And because I am balancing the 4 pulse coils with the 2 generator coils (which are adjustable) initially offset at 30 degrees, the net effect is lots of flux and very little to no cogging. I've pursued this aspect heavily - the reason being; if there is less cogging, then the switching of the generator coils won't just be a de-magnetising effect (as Adams stated), but will result in a positive push - just like the pulse coils...

The second is moving electrons between counterwound coils. Until a sufficient speed is reached (rpm) the action / reaction of a coil that has a magnet passing over it (and under it) results in a sluggish pushing between the shorted generator coil sets - giving us the all too familiar 'bogging' down under load. However at a certain speed (~1800rpm) a speed up occurs due to the initial reaction resistance magically disappearing. I think this is in part due to the magnets not able to fully bias the electrons that have found themselves spinning in a different direction as they transition to the counterwound coil. And this is occurring because the pulse width of the increased speed of the magnets and additional voltage being generated is being forced onto the counterwound coils. This negation of the resistance is then completed when the switch of the generator coils open, removing the coils attempt to resist the magnet moving away. (This is all just my opinion - if someone knows better, please pipe up. I have a feeling this is also why the modified universal motors sped up when shorted - counterwound coils)

The third is achieving magnetic reversal. With the previous two conditions in place, switching all of that voltage generated in such close proximity to the magnet by means of opening a switch will reverse the magnetic field around the coil. Presented with a like field that magnet must respond to achieve equilibrium. This results in the magnet having to momentarily reverse polarity, and as I've got strong magnets on either end of the generator cores AND I've aligned two coils in a row - the reversal wil be MASSIVE  (1+1=3), the subsequent response from the magnets are then concentrated back into the coils...and that is when the current flows.
The trick to this is proximity, the closer (~2mm) the magnet is to the coil, the more the magnet has effectively turned the coil core into a magnet - a fractal of itself.

Switching is where this gets dicey... here's a raw and rough video of switching one of the two phases. The orange meter is measuring the voltage from one phase, while the red meter is showing the current from the shorted/switched phase. From this you can now probably appreciate a little better just how much power this will put out once I completely meet all of the conditions above. Shortly after this video I tried a new clean disc and had an inch high full ring of bright white voltage, that left spot welding burn marks - I've switched higher voltages in the past, but have not seen this before. 

I'm looking at modifying a 6 cylinder distributor cap and rotor button to put this long standing issue to bed once and for all.



So this is only switching one phase, leaving the other as passive dead weight... input ~32W, Ouput ~150W (75V x 2A)... switching both phases as outlined above will only increase power and rpm... I guess that's one way to trample all over the 3 laws of thermodynamics... and this is the 'just get it running' tune, I haven't even pulled the big guns out yet...


I encourage anyone reading this with a genuine interest to just start building. What I've revealed above is a boiled down version of what the likes of Bedini, Adams, Sweet and many others have already worked out. My whole intention has been to prove it possible by making it simple (ish) and understandable, that way more conversations can be had and more can be learnt. 

So you've just been shown free energy and with a little more work, perpetual energy... what do you do now?

Hi unimmortal, I have been following your build and I have to say very well done.

How did you do the output measurements? Was it into a load?
How does the input/output vary with varying load?
Are you only measuring the electric output? It may have interesting mechanical output too.

Hey kloakez, appreciate that, thank you.

Measurements are through a DMM. The only numbers that have really mattered to me are volts (potential) and rpm (frequency). The current shown is more indicative that I'm flowing more, and more to be used as a yardstick. The real current will come when the magnets have to give me both polarities at both ends of the coils  Guests cannot see images in the messages.

Yes, mechanically there is potential as well. Adams made a point of being able to 'tune' his motor for torque or speed. Proximity to the magnets is key for this, and will heavily interplay with the perpetual aspect once I have the 3 principles nailed down.

Edited:

Below is my first gain mechanism in play. 

The airgap across the pulse coils is 10mm and the airgap across the generator coils is now a little over 2mm!!! So that target has been reached. Finger spinning a 2.4kg shaft with a combined magnetic holding force of 360kg... very happy days!

I may have to amend my made up equation to d/5 ...

Now it should be clear how multiple rotors can be used to drastically drop input requirements and at the same time enable super close proximity to the generator coils.


 

Next up we'll be giving her some juice....

A bit of a mishap has spawned a new switching disc - or as I call it, a spark wheel.

3 copper spokes on each side, offset 180° to each other. This will allow pulse and generator switching nice and close to each other...

The photo shows a rotor (slice), coilset and switching. These represent the only components used in EMMA. I am showing this in an attempt to show how accessible and simple making a device is.

In the next post I hope to show all three gain mechanisms working together (finally), before we go chasing the big fish  Guests cannot see images in the messages. Please register at the forum by clicking here to see images.

I've dug into mechanical switching and have something that's going to work. The photo shows my initial idea of being able to independently rotate pulse and gen switching, but as always there are learnings.

The load must be present at all times for the make break of the contact. By trying to be clever, I forgot that the load has to be extended to one brush while the coils connect on the other brush, reducing the time available for flow. FAIL!!

The upside is that I was pulling 110V @ 1.5-2A with 20w input. So with a constant load contact in place, those numbers will only go up. RPMs really jump when that timing sweet spot is hit.

An interesting option then becomes available to me. If a constant contact is connected to a load, and the gen coils are alternatively switched to that load, is this one wire AC? If anything it would save me making a second disc to isolate the load contact for each phase.

With these learnings integrated and generator coils switching perfectly tuned, it is going to be really interesting to see how the pulse coils use that output.

[unimmortal]

On the home stretch now...

As it stands I have E.M.M.A. at a 2-3mm airgap, secondaries are shorted and switched back into themselves. The 8mm shaft I can spin with my fingers, and with a hand spin of the rotor, the generator switch sparks can be adjusted from a miniscule purple dot, through to a big muddy green and orange flash that tells me the timing is bad and burning copper is the result.

So with all of that energy, how do I try and maintain motion? 

By sequentially switching coils on and off. The trick to that is to have two switches per lead so that a connection to the previous or next coil becomes possible, while maintaining the existing circuit, AND being able to alternate the connections between inner and outer windings for each coil. This creates a sliding window scenario where coils can be connected (and disconnected) on one side in advance so that the coil forms a complete circuit and can immediately be connected to the next coil. 

This also enables the energy from the switch open event to be kept in the coil (as the collapsing field will make it's way to the inner winding of the coil) and at the time of connecting to the next coil (in parallel) a resistance drop will alter the V=I x R equation.  V will stay the same or increase, R will drop, I (A) will then increase to balance the equation.

SW2,4,6,8 setup the next circuit in turn, SW1,3,5,7 complete the next circuit in turn, and then SW2,4,6,8 open the circuit in turn.... and repeat.

My device can be rationalised down to 4 coils and a single magnet. The black dot indicates the inner winding lead of the coil. 

   

I'll be etching arcs of concentric circles on a PCB to make the contact patches. 4 coils, 16 leads, 8 switches.

So there you have it, blueprints for a self running pulse motor.

More soon...

Edit: for context, the actual path on my device of the magnet across the 4 coils in the above diagram is a total of 8cm or 120degrees. With the magnet directly over the secondaries, (and due to density) the other end of it is also over both primaries, whereby one has a shrinking field and one has a growing field.

[unimmortal]

After trying a few more stator/brush combinations I've settled with perspex discs and inlaid copper strips.

Each disc will join two coils with 4 brushes. It's a little fiddly, but the PCD of the contacts is within a couple of mm of the rotor magnet PCD which will give me a little more fidelity when tuning.

The contact strip on the disc is 60° allowing 'relative' ease to adjust advance/retard/duration between the two brushes. The on time is a little under 30°.

Next thing to do is drill and file channels for the brush mounts to slide in and get the mounts real skinny... I need to fit in another 8!

Looking good, unimmortal! I plan to replicate your build as soon as you provide the full build-out.

Thanks ovun987, I'm flattered, but I wouldn't replicate what I've done. It's been a journey for me. 

I will however let you in on a consolidated version that I plan to build at some point. This will save you a LOT of time, effort and frustration:

Two 3 magnet rotors offset 30° either side of 6 bifilar coils. 10mm square magnets and 10mm coil cores. The bifilar acts as both primary and secondary and the rotors take turns inducing at either end, also removing the cogging. Wiring and switching would still be a little complex.
