8:26 I guess that your capacitor isn't really fully discharged. I think it has around 0.6V already from last push? So it has more energy stored, giving some more advantage? What do you think guys?
Isn't this a safer heating element in disguise here. If I used a motor to spin the disk behind which I put a fan, would it use less energy than a conventional heater?
10:57 Well, i think there is a flae in your design: the part of the magnetic field, which flows thru the air, and which stick the chain, should be contained by some metallic part. That whay, the magnetic field eill ingrease, and lines of field wi be contained. As a result, there would be less chance that the chain stick on the magnet
this was discovered a 124 years ago? maybe more?, think about that for a second, they did not even have 1% of the technology we have today and was able to figure it out back then LOL
A super capacitor rc car with a solar panel attached allowing it to charge a secondary battery that the capacitors can then pull from when they run out?
Try green LEDs. I used green LEDs in a project and they were way too bright. Green LEDs are crazy, use huge resistance. Lesson learned. (Humans are extremely sensitive to green)
It'd be more expensive, but change the flywheel material to tungsten, and make it thicker. It'll be much harder to spin up, but the start will be much better.
Awesome video! Interesting point to note is that using the Lagrange for electrical systems the capacitor can be equivalently thought of as a spring. Thus, an equivalent system would actually be one where a spring is coupled with the free-wheel , edit: so long as (k/2) = (1/2C).
So just keep on stepping up the size of the drone motor until you eventually reach a happy medium that you're comfortable with. Then make another video 🤔😚
It would be interesting if the distance of the magnets from the axis/axle could be varied to get the effect of changing gears? Thanks for this great video!!!
What if, you made the magnets some kind of a variator? where the magnets start from a wide radius, which is high torque, then slowly move down a smaller radius as the speed increases therefore high speed low torque, kind of like a CVT but with magnets.
I'd love to see a version of this launching frisbees (a typical disc golf disc weighs very close to 180 grams). Stuff Made Here and We Make Machines just came out with videos of their machines. I've a feeling you could do better than they.
> Makes a turbine and explains thoroughly that it's not at highest efficiency if the air colliding it hasn't lost its velocity, asks us if we can guess why the nozzle only that shoots high velocity air isn't as efficient. Nobody can tell!
sorry but imho 1kW drone motor might be CkW (ChinesekW) probably it's output power is more like 200W? plz post link to bigger drone motor anyway for others to rebuild, also what controller was used? (that does the beepin)
Great work and very informative. But I would rather see companies investing in the development of useful materials rather than PLA which due to low temperature resistance are rendered useless IMO. Inhave never printed anything other than the spool sample provided by the manufacturer in PLA as it does not provide any confidence for functional prints.
Long live Steorn, Btw, with those extremely long wiring, the Back Emf must be huge on that design. Forget the Thermodynamics, Laplace Law of Force rules in electric engines.
