Keppe Motor

[Guest]

Keppe Motor Primary source of energy: scalar or essential energy (from space).
Secondary source of energy: battery or electrical current used only to give the initial start.

copy-cat...maybe

Comparing basic form and function, the Keppe motor appears to be a knock-off of the J Newman motor.

So Keppe makes a square Newman Motor and it is so unique that he names it after himself?

In part I they keep saying it runs on scalar energy. In part III all of a sudden it's more like a typical window motor...

Also, voltage in the battery is in no way an indicator of charge.

Hi all,

I have just built one of these motor and have started my testing. I'll be duplicating the technique shown in the following video. At least these guys use standard calculations when computing power. Newman waves his hands and interchanges units of power ... both electrically and mechanically.

Here's their better more engineering oriented video:

In this video YouTube - Keppe Motor going open source at 6:04 he said that it could be built without magnets!!?!?

some pics of my Keppe motor

Hi all,

Here are some pics of my Keppe motor. The first picture below shows motor loaded with a paddle-shown at right. In test there will be an eddy current brake for variable load to replace the paddle.

I guess I shouldn't expect to see any oscilloscope evidence of the scalar energy that's supposed to be helping run the motor.

parts for Keppe Motor

@gmeast;

Where did you get the shaft and bearings for your motor? What did you make the transformer case from? I have found the reed switch and most other parts, but I'm still looking for these.

Thanks,
Carl

Thanks, I forgot about McMaster though I've had an account with them for some time. They have everything I need.

Thanks again,

almost testing

Hi everyone,

I have finished building my eddy current loading brake. I also finished wiring a 115VAC-10VAC xformer, bridge rectifier and 65,000uF cap as my power supply to feed my Keppe motor. Monitoring the VAC into the bridge and large cap provides an accurate reading of the input power to my Keppe motor.

Under load and with best timing there is nearly NO sparking or arcing at the reed switch ! !

The motor is running at 960 (or so) RPM.

I have adjusted the timing of my Keppe motor for best power under load. I have not received my digital scale I will use to measure torque but I'll post what I have now.

Enjoy,

Greg

Here are the pictures:

This picture shows the eddy current brake used to load the Keppe motor. As the magnet on the screw moves closer to the spinning aluminum disc, the motor gets loaded.


This picture shows the timing adjustment used to produce best power under load. Notice the spikes going MOSTLY negative


This picture shows a large volume of negative going spikes at the beginning of the stator coil oscillation.


The next picture shows the stable AC power at 12.46V-RMS feeding the bridge and cap. It is nearly perfect sine wave ... suitable for computing input power.


The next picture shows the transformer, bridge rectifier, cap and back of my Keppe motor.


This last picture is the current my Keppe motor is drawing while running at 960 RPM under load and producing the above scope captures.

possible self charging effect

Hi all,

Check this out. I took a look at my cap voltage only to find that it's sitting at 13.89VDC while the motor is running under load. So I started cranking the time scale down and saw what I think is going on with these pulsed motors. I have never thought to crank it down to the nanosecond scale before which is why I never saw this stuff.

I have included three scope shots of the capacitor terminals:

Greg

This first capture shows the motor running and top of cap at a 500usec/div scale ... nothing spectacular so far.


The next capture shows another somewhat familiar and expected picture of the coil's signature at 50usec/div


But at the 10nanosecond scale you really see something incredible. If you look at the areas under the trace you can see an appreciable amount of charging ABOVE the 13.89VDC average voltage. In fact the scope says +29VDC (lower right). This appears to be a self-charging affect. This is happening near Gigaherts frequencies and might be evidence of ZPE's contribution, scalar?

test results

I'm definitely interested in your test results, especially the torque developed by the Keppe motor. I'm also interested in the efffectiveness of your eddy current brake. Are those neo magnets?

Thanks,

Hi Spearmaster,

The eddy current brake works far better than I had expected. I just did a range of speed test. I can load the motor from1350 RPM down to 240 RPM. I have two little neo magnets stuck to the adjusting screw you see. The disc is a hard drive platter I picked up at the surplus shop. I glued it to a drive pulley that happened to have an 1/8" hole in it (the shaft size on my motor) ... also from the same surplus shop.

The torque measurement has turned out to be a little more challenging than I had expected. With only one pulse per rev, it's hard to average the torque ... so I'm working on that. The coil support frame is very lightweight so it has a small inertial moment. I tried adding some arms with some weights on them to make the frame more "flywheelie". It sort of worked. I just might end up winding up a string with a dangling weight to measure the energy and power.


Thanks for asking,

Greg

so far

Hi all,

I have loaded the eddy current brake on my Keppe motor to 730 RPM and seem to be getting about 3.0 grams of force at a moment arm of 2.375 inches. I have measured the input power two different ways ... my gut tells me this motor is not very efficient as it stands but I won't give up and I'll try another method for determining output power. I don't think all has been disclosed by the Keppe motor people.

This motor is the Version 1 motor. There is a Version 3 motor that carries their claims but that motor manual has not been released yet and there's no official word if ever or when it will be.

Here are the pictures of my Keppe motor, scale and anvil anyway.

[Spearmaster]

Got my Keppe motor running tonight. So far I've adjusted the rubber magnet ring up to 780rpm and still going. The little 9V has been running it for nearly an hour with no drop in voltage. I haven't done any testing yet for current draw or performance.

Is this a lot like the Bedini Window motor?

Later,
Carl
