Angled core face idea
Here is the idea I was talking about. Simply stated we angle the core face so as to add a sideways force to the rotor. There is a lot to this so please read the description.
When using a high permeable core I believe this will allow us to minimize some lenz drag as the magnet approaches the rotor. (the magnet is attracted to the pickup point of the core, vs the copper coil)
You will also notice that I placed the magnets where they will have a neutral side to side force. I think this is very important.
I feel the second design has more potential because of where this 'neutral' point is located. Notice that it is off center from the coil (after the coil). We can use that I think.
Also notice... with a properly designed assymetric generator, all but one of your coil (sets) will be propelling the rotor forward. I wonder if the forward propulsion is enough to overcome the cogg from the one coil. Can you say free forward motion anyone? If not that is ok, every bit of efficiency we can design into one of these generators the better.
And lastly, the core will not saturate so abruptly (it will charge based on the relation of the distance of the magnet to the core). This gradual charge will cause the output energy to be more of a wave than a spike. Not sure if we want that in these systems, I just suspect that it is an inherent result of this core design. Do you think a more gradual wave is a good thing to have here?
Last edit: here is a link to the thread I created to help us calculate this sideways force...
