  • caused of eddy curents

  • Cool video MrAnguswangas. Going to go try this out. Thanks.

  • Little Ed! :) this was great angus, thanks!

  • yes i know, stop sending me replays i was wrong.. Good Job!

  • lol "whatddaya think? what can ya tell me aboot the copper pipe man?"

  • A moving magnet close to a fixed conductor will induce voltage.

    So, your falling magnet will induce voltage in the copper pipe's walls.

    But because the pipe is closed, this voltage is short-circuited and produces current (called Eddy current). This current in turn, will produce a magnetic field that will OPPOSE the magnet's movement. That's why your magnet will fall slowly.

  • @dpatulea LMAO@air friction!

    You should read the video description.

  • @dpatulea Rather no. I think that it is called theLenz law. Moving magnet creates a counter acting magnetic field in the tube. But I bet You allready knew this?

  • @dpatulea no it's called Lenz law

  • The opposite force generated by the magnet is due to eddy currents that are generated when a magnet spins the electrons as you correctly stated. Keep in mind that there are X,Y, and Z coordinates involved in this, so it would be a vector equation (multiple dimensions), not scalar (single dimension). The B-field generated by the electrons moving are similar to Newton's law of equal and opposite. If you want to find data and the equations, use excel to average at least 10 measurements.

  • has no one on youtbe ever heard of a tripod they are cheep!!!

  • I believe it is a result of electromagnetic induction. Magnets create a electric field while moving, and the magnet is attracted to the electric field therefore causing slight resistance of the pull of gravity. Althought I might be incorrect.

  • Slight thing i forgot to add in my last comment it does not matter how easily or difficult the copper becomes magnetised because the copper tubes need electrons to create this current of F lorenz.

  • aah this is easy the magnets fall slower because there is a change in the magnetic flux in the copper tube, the reason that it will fall slower is because lenz his law dictates that a opposing force will be created in a closed circuit (copper tube) opposit of the poles of the magnet. So in other words the copper tube creates a force called the Lorenz Force wich pushes the magnet away from its current position. However due to mass and gravity it will keep falling even though there resistence

  • I think the reason for the slowing of the magnets through the copper tube is that it's pushing all of the electrons in the copper tubing down with it while it creates/breaks magnetic bonds with them.

    A similar analogy would be if you had a piece of clear tubing (with the bottom sealed) a little bigger in diameter than the cylidrical shaped object that you drop in; the air has nowhere to go at the bottom so it has to rush pass the falling object as it falls, which in turn slows it down.

  • the inner part(circle) of copper pipe is made of either iron or steel.......

  • Contrary to what science teaches copper is slightly magnetic, test this by hanging a magnet on a string and holding it along side a cooper tube.

  • Not sure if anyone asked... but does the magnets through the copper pipe fall as slowly without the magnetic motor running?

  • This is technically not a Caduceus Coil.

    The wires on this coil look more like a barber shop pole.

    The Caduceus is a Helical Coil according to Phi.

    Please see my paper called "Fist Fights With Physicists - The Caduceus Coil" on Scribd,com

    You can have as many helixes (wires) as you like as long as they remain equidistant down the Cone, not cylinder.

    Have your wires running straight from top of the cone to the base and then twist the top 288 degrees to create that spiral around the cone.

  • @TheRealVerbz

    I really appreciate your comment and will definately be checking out that link.

  • @MrAnguswangus Wonderful! Thank you!

    I juuust now posted this video to couple with that note.

    It should be a little more specific and at the same time raise a lot of questions.

    watch?v=XfUhvmsGHws

    I can use all the insight I can get!

  • Could your magnet and copper pipe dilemma be as simple as the displacement of the air inside the tube? This was my first thought when I saw the video. The fact that the tube is pretty close to the same diameter as the magnets increases the chance that the air inside the tube can only be displaced downward. Thus the magnets are held up by the air trying to escape. In the open...things fall much easier because the air that causes the friction on the object can be displaced much easier.

  • as the magnet falls through the copper pipe, it slows down due to a 'lenz' effect......now this same effect can be found in 'conventional' transformers, motors, and generators......but figure out a way to eliminate it and watch the performance of your devices increase!

  • MrAnguswangus

    Have you placed a coil on the out side of the copper yet, To see if the rate of drop to increase beyond the gravitational flow. Given how a magnet works It should accelerate. If what I am seeing is correct you should get a much more forceful result.

    Great Video.

  • it seems ( if your trying to discover Ed leedskalnin's discovery your close) I don't know, because i didn't have the sound on. of course i don't know for sure by any means what Ed did.

  • youtube.com/watch?v=kU6NSh7hr7­Q&feature=related

    

  • not real familiar with Bedini,

    These coils you use in the wheel, what exactly are they doing with the interaction of the magnets?

    is this perpetual?

    I saw in one of your vids, when the magnets exited the copper tube a small spark i believe.

    good stuff!

  • If you wound a coil around PVC, and shorted the two ends of the resulting coil's single wire, it will slow down the magnet. So, in effect you could use a switch, and when it's off it drops normally, and when it's on to short the coil without any power, it drops slowly. Just use a thin walled PVC, so that the magnet is as close to the coil as you can keep it, and a high current switch.

  • Any time a magnet moves past a coil or visa versa it induces an opposing magnetic field. If the magnet stopped, it would stop inducing a current, so all it can do is slow down. The pipe acts like a long shorted coil.

  • An excellent example of Lenz's law! OK.. as the magnet slips thru the copper pipe' the magnetic field passes into the copper inducing an electric current. As the electric current flows thru the copper ... an electromagnetic field is produced. This magnetic field is then attracted to the magnets! :O)

  • very interested in caduceus coil .... tried it but not only did not havewinding right but did not hook it up right.. battery kept getting hot .. can you explain how to hook it up and how to do winding..very interested

  • Apparently, it will only emit scalar waves if you feed it AC or Pulsed DC. The nodes (wire crossings) should be at 90 degrees...mine are a little less than. I haven't tried it yet. I've been trying to get a serious pulsed DC current coming out of my Bedini output to run through it. I have read that the energy received at a scalar wave receiver is 500%-1000% greater than what was sent from the transmitter. Also,scalar waves travel 1.5 times the speed of light.Bearden is good to read or listen to.

  • thank u for trying to help..I had a 9amp inverter .. my fuse was a small 9 ..will try smaller fuse..but won't everything just keep shorting out or blowing if I attach both leads coming out of the transformer to each end of the one wire on the iron pole? how do I attach the wires ...I need very easy to understand language .. I don't know much about electricity.. trying to learn ..my area is ancient research ..Thank You

  • The failing magnets create and Electric Current in the tube. This creates a magnet force in the tube area of the failing magnet that repulses the failing magnet and slows it down.

  • a wonderfull demonstration of lenz's law...

    magnetic field passing through the copper causes electricity in the same manner as a coil... but becos the copper tube is 'solid' it sorts out the electricity causing a lenz field...

  • Thank you CW69. It's quite fascinating to do and watch for yourself. I wish I had a dollar for every time I've dropped it through. I'm wondering now if this may be an easy way to test for a way to negate Lenz's law. There is a guy from Ottawa, Canada (ThaneCHeins channel) that may have a way. Anyway, thanks for your input because it is regarded highly.

  • @comwarrior69 is there an experiment been done you know off which uses a copper long coil instread of a pipe and what are the results then? Doe you have to short the coil to create the effect or can you power a lightbulb with it too?

  • hey mr a w, last week i wound a coil the same, i didnt kno it was called a caduceus coil. infact i have been winding like this fo 30 years, as one of my first jobs was winding game rods for hank newman sports. for big game fishing. so, after the influx of orbo replicaters, i decided to flatten my diamond wrap coil, as it is wound on cardboard, and the rolled it up. wow, crazy curly coils etc.

    love yer vids. thanks for sharing.

  • Thanks HB. Always good to hear from you. They also call the coil a Tesla coil and also a Tensor coil. I have watched your vids in your backyard and wondered what kind of fishing there is in that bay down yonder. So you make these coils...have you energized them with AC...what happens? I'm sort of cautious of firing up the coil because I've done a lot of reading on scalar waves effects and some aren't good. I think if I avoid super high frequencies to start I'll be ok. We'll see. Take it easy.

  • hi, can u help me? trying to make cadcuceus coil ..did winding ..have a 12v. battery from there went ot inverter..to transformer then ran wires (one w/fuse )to wires wrappped around pole but it blew my inverter not fuse.. i know it's shorting out but cannot figure how to make it work..i used one wire bent in; half around the pole and ..i know that's shorting ou;t but what i've read says ..it was done that way..help

  • @uniqueandprosperous

    Sure, if I can...I'm not an expert at this sort of thing though. I know that you need to use an AC or pulsed DC current. How many watts is your inverter rated to put out? With my 200 watt inverter, when I put a load on it that is pulling greater than 200 watts it shuts down. Maybe a resistor in series with the coil? I don't understand what you mean about the short. The wires on the coil are shorted out?

  • @MrAnguswangus I may be a little late but, so if so sorry bout that, anyways this is in regard to the copper pipe and neomags. The reason for the slowing down of the magnets is because of Lenz's Law. The magnet as it slides, or more like floats down the copper is inducing a current into the copper, similar to a coil, however the very magentic field that caused the induction is setting up an opposing field that goes against the magnetic field that caused the induction in the first place. : )

  • hi mr anguswangus, if you move a magnet over a copper wire then in the wire electricity will flow. there is a north and south pole going trough the copper tube so a magnetic field is created in the copper tube, what slows the magnet down. ( i think!)

    keep up the good work on ed`s wheel

  • Hello MrLepang. Ya I was aware of the cogging effect but am a bit baffled by the fact that it doesn't do it when released right next to the pipe (outside). I was wondering if it was generating a current and tried to measure the voltage but the mags kept sticking to the clip leads...lol...and I didn't feel like soldering the pipe just for that. I figured 1 of you guys would fill me in...thanks. I'm hoping that connecting the flux paths on the wheel causes some good results. Take care.
