EEG_EM_New_Technique_TRANSVERSE_FLUX (TF) (Provisional Patent Applied for)

[solarlab]

Hi All,

In this thread I hope to present a new technique (at least it's new to Excess Energy Generation)
that has some great potential for developing useful devices.

THIS IS A "NEW APPROACH" TO EXCESS ENERGY GENERATION (EEG)

Although the technique has been known for over a 100 years, TRANSVERSE FLUX (TF) methods do
not appear to have been applied, to date, for "stand alone" fueless generation of power.

Preliminary analysis shows some great promise. We'll investigate further by designing a few
generator configurations. TF technology has recently (10 years or so) been employed in Permanent
Magnet (TFPM) generators but all these schemes use a rotating structure and PM's.

This new approach (a novel, undocumented, nor investigated idea) simply replaces the "PM's" with
equivelant "Electromagnets." This avoids or eliminates many of the TFPM drawbacks - the generator
becomes stationary (no cogging torque), requires no external anything, and is self-sustaining.

The TF methods appear to produce substantial output power while requiring very little input power.

These devices are very simple and easy to build while requiring no exotic materials, assembly tools
nor skills.

Stay tuned - I'll go through the investigation, development and design in some detail; including CAE Analysis;
sourcing, fabrication techniques and device implementation and testing.

However - please be aware that this new approach has been submitted as a Provisional Patent. So, if you have
a problem with that; just quietly move on. Thanks!

Some Preliminary BACKGROUND and STUDY Information

If your new to the Transverse Flux (TF) concept these links will help explain the idea. Although they
focus on generators using Permanent Magnets (PM's) used in Wind Generators, you can easily
substitute the PM rotating disc with fixed "Electromagnets" driven by a simple "Full H-Bridge" electronically.

A video of a TF Motor design and build from Mr. Kuhn (student at Altoon Penn State University):

Again, replace the PM's with an Electromagnet and you'll get the idea of this new EEG_EM concept.

Brief Transverse Flux Definition

This picture sums up the difference between "Conventional Flux" (the one we've all been
chasing for the past 10, or more, years and "Transverse Flux" (the concept used here in this
EEG_EM).

A side note:

When looking into the LinGen I wanted something that didn't require the sliding, or rotating, 
magnetic field. Faraday and Lorentz laws are different but come up with the same results. As
a bonus, this EEG_EM does not have a large "overhang" of the LAP Winding found in the 
original LinGen. In fact, the LAP Coil is replace by a simple round, or oval, torroid shape coil.

After a bit of study the TF seemed to be that difference. It wasn't covered much (1 hr?) in 
university but it at least it got stuck in the "upstairs" over the years.

CAE Analysis of the EEG_EM TF Design Concept

These two (2) documents are a preliminary CAE Analysis of the approach.

Part 1 of 2 is the "Typical - TF LinGen V2 Design.pdf" 
Part 2 of 2 is an analysis "TFG_Z03_TR_A-phi_OutCoil_5_100mA-20t_Rev_01.pdf"

Of particular interest are the data preliminary results found at the end of part 2.
