I've done it in many ways. Variable frequency, power, square wave too. Every variant I could think of. It's similar to Clemente Figuera if you have a big imagination.

Hi r2fpl,

Nice work. Your video loads but fails to play on this device. I'll try it elsewhere. You say 3 layers. Is there a photo showing them, perhaps without the wood frame?

{edit} rebooted Android device and she plays fine. Good job!!!!
and thanks for answer below

I don't know why the video isn't showing up for you. Maybe it's a YT problem or maybe you have limitations. I do not know that.
All layers are 100% identical. Only on the 2nd middle layer there is an additional winding that was used to measure the oscilloscope and receive energy but also to generate it. Just all the options on the table.

The video is playing fine for me.  It also looks great!  I really like the way you found for displaying the moving magnetic field.

r2fpl,

Do a review/analysis of your device's "Magnetic Circuit."  Also consider the material "B-H Curve"
optimal operating points when configuring/setting the Input Signal. Good luck!

To answer your last question you should study the detailed LinGen information that's been
presented previously - many times.

Regards,

SL

You're right. Sometimes one detail changes everything or many do nothing. One difference is the reception method which is different. Maybe it's this detail, but I'd have to run the whole device to check it. I wish it worked but I know how much time I wasted. I know dozens of such projects and none of them is true in the good results.
For now, I do not know what would convince me to return to this concept of the device. Maybe someone wants to do it too.

Hi guys,

This is definitely a better way way to make the laminated cores than what I started to do.

Much thinner PLA separators between the iron layers and between the core and coil wire. The separating layers are down to 0.013" and the thickness of the mold casing is right at 0.020".

The idea is to put down a single layer at a time followed by a separator, compress and cure ... repeat.

It takes about 4 hours to print a mold section for the Samsung rotor core but you only need 4 of them for this. The separating layers take right at 12 minutes each and don't have to be trimmed or anything. Ready to use as soon as they cool.

In one of the images below the light blue-green is on separator sitting at the top of the core mold.

Much easier.

r2fpl,

Sorry to hear you are giving up on this device.

Should you ever decide to return to this concept of the device using an Analytical (mathematical)
design and analysis or a Numerical approach I've attached a pdf file that you may find of interest.

Sometimes a little up-front engineering work can save a lot of time and expense. Having analyzed
dozens of so called FE discoveries; this is only one of two that showed great promise and has actually
worked out so far.

Anyway; the first recommendation is to find access to a professional CAE Suite (school couse, etc.),
or try an Analytical analysis (using your favourite math program, or whatever). The attached file
might provide some insight and guidance as you engineer the solution. 

The first five chapters are generic with respect to developing most devices of similar structure,
including the LinGen. The remaining chapters are specific to designing a "Fault Current Limiter" but
still contain some useful magnetic circuit information.

Both Analytics (Math) and Numbeics (CAE) are covered. Modern CAE has developed quite a bit with
the addition of GUI's, etc. since this writing. Taken from notes of an old COMSOL course.

It's quite comprehensive and well done IMHO. Provides some good reference material as well.

This concludes my contributions and presentations regarding the analysis, development and design of
a specific embodiment found in one of the Holcomb patents.

Just a quick update.

Casting the laminates has been problematic so far. The polymer I have used for smaller laminates is not strong enough for these large ones with such narrow sections and they are cracking when even slightly flexed.

I’m switching to a two part fiberglass resin now and hopefully that will solve the problem.

Laminate experiments continue. Up ‘til now I’ve only managed to keep from reducing the density too much below the 2.52 g/cm3 apparent density of the loose powder.

I may have found the ideal composite powder for DIY though, ATOMET EM-1. If I can purchase small quantities and also figure out an economical way to compress it to about 420 MPa. That pressure would give it a density about 6.8 g/cm3 which is better than ferrite.

Its most attractive feature for DIY is that it cures in 30 minutes at 200 C. No expensive kiln needed.

The fiberglass resin works well and pops right out of the waxed PLA mold.

The best casting so far has a density of 3.66 g/cm3, including the resin. This is with the IRON100 powder and 6mm thickness.
It’s totally non-conductive so I’ll keep lowering the resin ratio as far as practical. Right now it’s 50/50.

I was checking out by own experiment.
The current of generator rotor don't change,not increase,nor decrease  if change RPM or value of load. From the load current, only the load on the motor changes. ;)

Hi Cadman,

Great information/discovery - THANKS X 1K...

Finally found some time to revisit SMC's. ATOMET EM-1 by QMC (Quebec Metal Products) Rio Tinto
is quite exciting to say the least; plus it's a Canadian company. Their web site contains so much
information and documentation it will take a while to digest but it's the best I've ran accross so far.

Haven't checked the pricing and availability yet, that's still a TO-DO. Compression might be easier
than first anticipated by just using an inner mold (3D Printed as you did) with AL bar side supports
and AL bolted Top and Bottom plates. Lots of ideas to sort through.

LinGen design is easy however. Thought about using "Machinable Wax" as a re-usable Mold but will
have to check the compression limits, etc. Many advantages if it works.

Anyway, thanks again. Take care and good luck!

SL

Thanks Cadman for the update. I'm still fabricating when I can work is keeping me busy. Your updates are helpful and appreciated.

Hi SL,

THANKS X 1K right back at ya..

I just happened to have a casting and mold in front of me when I saw your post and it gave me an idea.

You know, this iron/resin casting is pretty strong stuff, even at 50/50 ratio, and it’s machinable.

I’m going to print PLA molds for a punch and die set, cast a pair, and attach a thick mild steel base to each. Grade 8 bolts & nuts to apply the pressure.

I think there’s a good chance this will work since the part I’m compressing is small and only a few mm thick.


Hey Jimboot,

I'm in the same boat. 60+ hrs every week is a PITA.
