#28 Washer Motor Generator

Here is a look at the whirlpool cabrio washer motor generating electricity. This will make an excellent windmill gen.
Also a look at some other generators and an update on the foaming between the two different plate gaps for the hydroxy cells.

hi have you tried horse shoe magnets in a outer circle or could you the flux plays in the horse shoe top look at joe cell talks 2 he explains

[hhoball]

@honda4004 Thanks for the tip. I will check it out.

C'mon man we're waiting for your windmill! : )

[hhoball]

@MandalayWind Its in the middle of being built right now. My problem is i work on way too many project at once.

[InTheSticks0001]

It has potential for a micro-hydro system as well!  This video put me on a new track.

Are there low RPM washer or dyer motors that run 100 to 200 rpm?

[hhoball]

@InTheSticks0001 Do you mean rotor/stator type motors like this, or any ac motor?

[claudesherman]

@MandalayWind Or use a transformer to drop the voltage down to a reasonable voltage and the amperage goes up at the same time so no power is lost.

I'm working on the same except I have a LG motor. The washer drum mounts on a tri-arm which is perfect for props or a disc to mount a VAWT. Look inside an LG front load washer at the store and you will see what I mean. Also, the shipping bolt holes in the drum are an excellent place for frame attachments. Some appliance repair places toss appliances outside for the junk man to pick up. Also, you can find cheap front loaders on Craig's List sometimes-cheaper than buying the parts individualy

What is the resistance of that motor?

[pleasecho2]

GE Harmony washers use the same system

[MandalayWind]

You could wire the stator to 2 or 3 individual submerged plates. Try this without a rectifier diode. Diodes drop voltage somewhat. Thanks

@hhoball No pressure. We do the same. It helps make each project more intriguing. Reusing is better than recycling and these motors have many applications and are quite well built. The trick is to make sure they are sealed with a quality varnish for the elements. You also may have to rewire the stator unless you are going grid tie. They put out high voltage. Have you ever tried using 120 ac unaltered to make hydrogen? You would have to start with very little electrolite to not draw too many amps
