Steve, ever wanted to do something so badly you end up Frustrated b/c the #s never work out ? LOL It's not looking good for the hometeam unless I were to go...
Steve I know how to calculate TSR, I referencing the example you gave ! "at 5 mph, 9' blades might put out 35 watts." What was the TSR for that setup and also...
It's a theoretical machine. He hasn't built one yet. I don't know the rpm, blade length, or voltage of a machine that has not yet been built. Steve Spence ...
Hi all, I'm wondering about how to connect my 6 coils ? is 2phase serie connection is possible (i think yes but i prefer asking to be shure ) and if it's...
each coil is made from a single piece of wire. then soldered together. Steve Spence Renewable energy and self sufficiency http://www.green-trust.org ...
you can just do coil by coil..and then solder them together after.....enjoy the spiral force of nature  you can just do coil by coil..and then solder them...
I know this thread is kind of old but...... what distance would the " sets " need to be on a multi coil generator ? in short rotor plate coil plate rotor plate...
RD- If you position the magnets so that N on one side lines up with S on the other, you don't need two plates. If you want to build with two magnet plates at...
hi, you'll find at this adress a french doc. for general college challenge and you'll find at the 4st page a photo of a 1.2kw multistage gen. with an...
Hi Folks - I'm interested in your experiences with wind speed/direction monitoring equipment - what's good, what's not, durability, support, etc. Thanks for...
i have been making a little pma....with some wires i found around...creates 4 volts of dc power and 7 of ac....if i had an other rotor it is true that the...
HI all, Just joined this group today and was looking over some of the projects going on here. I am interesting in a Vertical wind turbine but looks as though I...
Hi Ken and All, The reason you find no VAWT here is they are not eff thus cost 4-8 times more/kwhr of electric production. They are only useful in very low...
Thanks Jerry and Neil for the information. I did not know that you needed 4 to 8x the size for the Vertical. This is something I need to look at then. I found...
OK, time to show my ignorance. I'm building a small 12v turbine just to go through the whole process before building a big one. I want to get most of my...
35 turns per coil for 9 coils. For 6 coils (2 coils per phase), you would need about 53 turns. Why the saw blades? There's no metal in the stator. Steve Spence...
OK. Steve, when you say I have no metal, in the stator, do you mean I don't have enough? The magnets stick to the disks. I know there's not as much metal as...
You should have no metal in the stator, except the coils. No saw blades or anything else. The magnets are on the rotor, which is usually a 12" 1/4" steel...
Steve.. I apologize. I've been on the PC all day reading on the AF Please, insert rotor, in place of stator, in regards to the saw blades. My mind is turned...
Ah, that's a horse of a different color. No worries. I have not tried a rotor made of saw blades. Going to need a bunch of them .... Steve Spence Renewable...
Steve, you answered my question in your first response. Sorry about my gaff. Thanks. _____ From: axialflux@yahoogroups.com [mailto:axialflux@yahoogroups.com]...
