Homopolar Generator

http://gigagauss.com Testing this farady paradox generator, both ali and magnets spin together and generate electron flow to the rim of the disc, i managed to get 1.2 volts at 400rpm out of this once i had finalised the conection points

yes its strange its Faradays paradox.

. Faraday attempted to explain the disagreement with observation by assuming that the magnet's field, complete with its lines of flux, remained stationary as the magnet rotated (a completely accurate picture, but maybe not intuitive in the lines-of-flux model). In other words, the lines of flux have their own frame of reference

@Eltimple

Just did some reading, your problem might be that the disk is bigger than the magnets. Apparently in the area not under the influence of the magnets the current loops and is dissipated.

So when these things to generate current and you short them out. Do they become harder to turn? If so what is that harder to turn force pushing against? The magnets? (which are already spinning) Nothing?

[Eltimple]

@sjh7132 again there is no counter reactionary force , unlike a normal gen or motor as there is no back emf to invoke lenz law

@myryonspoof Yes.

Surely, this type of generator produce a lot of amps at low voltage. Faraday Paradox is the main reason behind the "magnetic motor" hoax. But getting back to the business, if you use more discs and connect them in series, you can get higher voltage while still getting an big amperage. Sorry for my fancy english, im not a native speaker.

@Eltimple 100% true. Lenz law refers to change in flux. Faraday's Dynamo, and others like it, do not change the magnetic flux of the motor/generator. Therefore there is no back-emf.

In reference to the dynamo design, the flux should be closed internally through the disk. The magnet size is good, you just need to close the flux loop through the disk using a small iron "cap" to cover and fold the flux lines.

@myryonspoof the DMM is going nuts so its probably ac.

[yo6ial]

you kinda measure some electrostatic energy there, not dc current.

it's gave off by mechanical wiping of electrons due to friction between the probe and the disk.

[myryonspoof]

this gives out dc, right?

The problem in America is that we're taking what was never there and blow it up on a gigantic scale when its not even real.

Well, according to my recent studies, there's no counter EMF or counter torque exerted on the motor shaft until CURRENT is pulled from the generator. In the video you are showing voltage, but no current is being drawn so it's not a good test of counter EMF. I do suggest that you test what you can pull for current off of that machine because Bruce DePalma said his machine (same exact principle as this machine and very similar build) was low voltage with thousands of amps! Worth testing!

current please?
