Jim,
I am probably the least qualified person on this forum to answer your question and I mean that sincerely. What I know I know from what I have seen on my bench, so I am going to throw a bunch of crap against the wall and you can scrape off what you don’t like. These are the things I think about at night. We know electricity and magnetism are related. We talk about magnetic fields and electromagnetic fields, and electrical fields.
When a coil collapses, there is a spike. When a coil with an iron core collapses, is the spike larger? If there is a change in the spike...Is this change in the collapse spike because more electricity was put into the coil? No. It was because the core created a stronger magnetic field.
When John puts an iron core in the ZFM, it creates a stronger magnetic field for the same amount of input voltage. Because not as many amps are needed to drive the motor at the speed it is rotating, the amp draw immediately drops. When the coil collapses, this stronger magnetic field collapses creating a larger spike. Run a small magnet on a rotor past a coil and look at the scope of the coil collapse. Now run a larger magnet past the coil and watch the coil collapse. It is the collapse of the magnetic field, not the electrical field that produces the spike.
So here is what I think about late at night. For every action there is a reaction. If the magnetic field collapse produces a positive electrical spike (remember the magnet going past the coil?...that was a positive spike) maybe it is the collapse of the ELECTRICAL field that causes the “negative” energy spike. If not, what reaction DOES the collapse of the electrical field cause.
I know this is all babble and someone will show up and prove me wrong,?but this is what I am good at. Being wrong 99% of the time.
