Flywheel with magnetic bearing

3D printed parts.
Some stuff from old hard drives, hall sensor form old computer fan.

این واقعا اصل تولید انرژی داعم و حذف جاذبه زمین درمحور ها است که باعث تولید انرژی داعم برق میشود

Very nice. Add more coils and you can reduce the rotational speed to get to 12VDC but I'm sure you already know that. I like the 3d printed base. A great idea to modify your design.

[morpher]

idea. Figure out the exact VECTOR the magnetic field takes in your location and align the axis along this vector so that Earth's field doesn't dampen the rotation. A cell phone app can help you determine this VECTOR.

Good as a electrical generator. No friction or mechanical wear to happen on parts.

[erkanen]

Great. Looks extremely nicely balanced. why not use antipole magnets at tip that leans onto end as well? should reduce friction even further?

Es gibt ein Weg was ich vorher auch nicht wußte, und Erkenntnis der Wellen Magnet testen und immer mehr Ideen kommen

[chrissinclair]

Try taking something like plexiglass and creating a box with a good vacuum. It will probably heat up quicker with power on and take longer to cool, but interesting to see how much longer it could spin.

I've been trying to find the ideal magnet configuration...currently have been using 3 in a semi circle, all 3 below center, to cradle the shaft magnets. I have a lot of vertical instability, bouncing, so I was looking to make a complete circle of bearings to 'contain/dampen' the shaft magnets better...more like what you have. But I have no idea what the correct spacing should be. Can you share the dimensions of your layout?

Thanks.

[nani]

cool af. Btw what kind of magnets did you use?, and how heavy is the rotor?

[nuclearpowerphysics]

More copper wire more power, you can also use a microwave transformer to up the power.

Please make a more in-depth video on how you build this! Could this spin at 20.000 rpm? Could this machine be used as a generator instead of a motor? Like a floating turbine or something.

That's a brilliant bit of engineering and it makes for a quiet ride. Too bad this is not practical for general purpose automobiles.

[kartaaham]

Would you create a video demonstrating it's construction?

[jeeffi]

Super. Hi. Have you posted construction plans or stl folders for printing somewhere? thanks

[BakerWase]

does the fact you are drawing electricity from it make it slow down quicker ? (sorry if its a silly question, it just seems like free energy if it doesn't somehow put load onto the flywheel and actually take its energy...)

[Auggg]

Here’s a newbie question: does something that rotates on a magnetic bearing create any torque?

[mykedoes]

Hey is this 3D printed ? whats the maximum weight the bearing can hold, I want to make a 100lb weight lifting bell into magnetic bearing for prototype gen lmk nice work 👍

[marcsmithsonian]

Quite cool. Try to make wheel filled inside and polished ( to reduce air resistance like some cyclist bike wheels) maybe even apply teflon coat. Alternatively ideal sollution would be seting your rig in a vacum chamber... cherrs !

[christophhandschuh]

Could you please share the stl files with us? And how did you build the flywheel? Thx

[nirodha]

I don’t understand why… on all these devices… the axial movement of the axle isn’t confined with only opposing magnets on the far ends aswell?! Like… seriously.
