Now you like the Pierre device?  You just laughed at it.

I don't understand your jokes. Maybe because I use google translator. 

The 36 slot stator started with the attached 6 pole 6 slot pitch scheme.
Many other combinations were experimented with.

Pierre wired it moving over one slot at a time, not stepping over the blue coil and continuing there.


I understand what you are getting at Ufo; you would want to see it wired like a general 3 phase stator, but Pierre didn't do it that way. Neither did the replicators. And the outer iron is the "rotor' in this case, not the stator. Center iron is the stator (where you pick off the output). The stator has only two poles (two ends that interact with the field).


Anyway, the reason there is no flux in the center iron is because the way this is biased with 6 poles is such that it creates a magnetic field from each N-S pole pair into the center iron, but all three poles are 120deg out of phase, so in the center iron, it adds up to ZERO. Magnetic fields are not just magnitudes that add up; they also have a phase and order to get constructive interference, the phase would need to be the same for all 3 pole pairs which it is not in Pierre's case.

Excuse me for butting in but I always thought he wired it to be 2 poles (NS) 180 degrees apart and stepped the connections to rotate the 2 pole field.

In the initial build all the coils are wired in series, with 6 coils forming a pole at a 6 slot winding pitch, as per Pierres diagram of this.


This was the original switch sequence I used.

Ok, thanks L192,


I finally understood how Pierre wired his setup...


I see a lot of problems in that design...from the winding of the coils (stepping down by one slot), to the way he is switching coils.


Now I realize why his setup caught on fire.


He has too many relays per group of 6 or 4 coils, as I understand now, what he meant by "isolating" the coils, or the magnetic fields...


Poor relays, they were getting super high reverse currents at all times...very hot inside contacts!!...maybe not reflected high temp. on their outer casing...




I finally understand what has happened here...




I will go in detail tomorrow, as I will have to make some graphics for better understanding.




And I rather open a dedicated thread just to go over this setup in detail, not to keep over populating this Thread here...
