What do you want to know? This is not a general search of all paths out of center but testing one specific to get a very rudimentary idea how things scale. The...
I think that is the way to go. Minimize the invention. I have also noticed that there are electron guns that allow filament replacement. They have valves that...
Hello all. Just spent the last few days reading the posts from the start. I know I'm just a lowly MechE, but it seems to me that there might be some "forest...
Welcome aboard! Good points and just such a regime has been suggested. That is one of the purposes of the test reactor. To figure out the final configuration...

Here's some more piercing. This time with constant current and coil radius versus the coil cross-section radius: http://www.mare.ee/indrek/ephi/pierce3/ ...
And yet another piercing: http://www.mare.ee/indrek/ephi/pierce4/ This time we again scale the coil cross-section radius but we scale the current with it. The...
Indrek, What we need are the electron energy in KEV as opposed to magnet field strength. Basically the design point should be the minimum energy required for...
Hmm. I'm more thinking about proportions and scaling here than specific design numbers. I think proportions wise I've covered most of the sane region. I don't...
Actual coil strength is going to be around 100,000 Amp Turns or greater in a real machine. Indrek's simulation is not meant to be definitive, but indicative. ...
What do we know about the forces required to keep the coils in alignment? Please excuse me if you've already addressed this. But, on each axis you have the...
The forces will be significant. My current thinking is to have each of the coils supported on four insulators/feedthroughs (two for coil cooling, two for coil...
Hi Simon, Boy did I stumble in over my head. Per Wiki: "Calculating the attractive or repulsive force between two magnets is, in the general case, an...
Hi there! I've been just sort of lurking around for a while, observing and learning what I can. As no one has given a solution to this question, I felt ...
Interesting. For WB-7 I'm planning on having all the coils in series. With superconducting magnets which need to be charged individually and slowly it will be...
As per my simulation for a R=15cm radius coils with S=8cm spacing (R and S as per http://mare.ee/indrek/ephi/cube_bfield/scheme.png) the force for one coil...
For our American friends: 10,000 newtons = 1.1240 tons force. = 2,248.1 lbf Simon Indrek Mandre <indrek@...> wrote: As per my simulation for a R=15cm...
The force repulsing one face coil from its opposing partner is expressed by the relation: Force = [pi* (current)^2 * (magnetic permeability of surrounding...
If the coils are perfectly aligned the torque is 0. I think torque is caused by the same Lorentz force I used here so dF = I * dl x B dT = r x dF I'm making...
Simon, if you would be so kind. Please allow me to explain to everyone a little more of what Indrek & Devlin are working on. If you've ever seen a film of the...
I determined that I wouldn't be able to happen upon a scanner any time soon, so I took the time to transpose the equation for the field into MS paint manually....
Attached is a png of a concept that uses external magnets. All magnetic flux carriers are in saturation and therefore shedding flux that shields the metal....
If you look at WB-6 the attachments holding the coils in position are not large. Note that they also have current carrying conductors internally. As to...
This looks very similar to something that I've already seen and am using in my simulator, here: http://www.netdenizen.com/emagnet/offaxis/iloopoffaxis.htm Or...
Amazing idea. What is the minimum size you think we could build one to prove it develops a polywell? The reason I ask is because I think the purpose of this ...
Gah, I forgot to put some of the vector notation in, each block there should be in the x^, y^ etc directions (components). Those links seem to cover nicey what...
I'm impressed. I tried to do the integration myself some time ago but I did not get very far. Barely managed to solve the e-field problem. I guess I should...
I think as a design issue it ought to remain separate. As a discussion issue I have no problem with that going on here. The collaboration might be useful. ...
