  • I wish this video was available, when I studied electrical engineering. It would have made understanding the concept a lot easier. This is hands down the best explanation of how a full bridge rectifier works, I've have seen. It's rare to see someone who can simplify things so that they are understandable yet not simplified so far that they are essentially wrong. Great job.

Air bearings may be better but they do require energy input. Toms flywheel is only working at low speed as I suppose a hot air engine would.

Those waves are not exactely direct current because it has valleys.

  • One of the things I've learned is that nearly all the work done by the fly wheel is from the mass at the outer edge. You could cut away much of the inner mass and still be good. As far as replacing the shaft, try cutting it off and drilling it out. Most drive shafts aren't force fit. Try a design where the tolerance is such that it's locked in by a set screw or a key.

    @ianbelletti6241@ianbelletti62419 ай бұрын
    • This. The theoretically ideal flywheel has asymptotically-close-to-zero mass and an infinite diameter. One could store much more energy by adding a ring of steel around the edge and remove the same amount of mass from the center.

      @LilMissMurder3409@LilMissMurder34092 ай бұрын
    • @@LilMissMurder3409 actually wrong on the mass part. It's the momentum of mass that keeps it going. The ideal has an extremely high mass concentrated in an atom thick layer with no mass between the "ring" and the axle beyond what's needed to connect the two. Without mass you could not have momentum and cannot use that momentum to do work. The true challenge with the mass is figuring out how much is enough to do the work without requiring too much work to get it up to speed and keep it there. Infinite mass may seem to be the ideal until you realize that it will take infinite energy to move it. Near zero mass seems the ideal until you realize that it can't perform much work. The true ideal is somewhere in between the two extremes and varies depending on the work that needs to be done in combination with continuously needing to overcome friction.

  • Thanks, for sharing young man. LOVED, SUBSCRIBED, & DING!!! @13:44 this material is called 80/20 and my boss LOVED it. He made a frame with 80/20 that was 2"x2" and other sizes for a machine that wrapped foam with material that conducts electricity. The newest cell phone, plasma televisions, and even antennas (for GM/NorthStar) use these technologies. Everything needed to make the flexible copper-plated material except the foam was made in-house. Afterward, I was tasked with making maybe30+ more in my six-year stint. They shipped these inexpensive foam wrappers all over the globe. Retired now for 15 years.

You can use a bridge to protect the input of your project from reverse polarity, If the battery was installed "the correct way" the power would flow properly. If the battery was installed "the wrong way" the power would STILL flow properly. Unfortunately, there is some voltage loss. Bridges typically use diodes that lose 0.7V each, so 2 * 1.5 = 3V loses possibly 1.4V If you build you own bridge using Schottky diodes the loss is less 0.3 to 0.4V. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Schottky_diode Note: I previously referred to 4 diodes, which is incorrect

Bonus. Make a small electric engine for spinning up the disc, charge up a capacitor for braking after it's hit max rpm and use the capacitor to run the electric motor again. Figure out the roundtrip efficiency of the energy storage system from the drop in rpm

  • In my opinion, you could increase your coil count from 4 to 8, by slightly reducing the size of existing coils, while keeping the same thin gauge copper wire. This would keep a more stable current and should give even more voltage output. Then you should hook up a low voltage arduino board to it that pulses a motor that would spin the flywheel automatically. I would be interested in seeing how these changes/additions impact the overall design and efficiency and whether or not it would work.

The only way you can have a machine that recycles energy like that is to have a 100% efficient transfer of energy which is almost impossible itself. And that's if you don't extract any energy from it yourself. So the arduino would have to have a separate power input source, which kind of defeats the purpose of this contraption which is to be an easy and efficient hand crank generator. The arduino could signal for a motor using external power to spin it using the power from the generator which would work kinda like a car engine's alternator and battery

You will feel the bar vibrate as you pull the bar past centre slightly. Do it the right amount and you will overcome the tensile strength of the material just enough for it to remain on center. Pull the rod out another hands width and repeat. Always check by rolling the bar on a known flat surface. Wet hands for extra lubrication.

  • This was much cooler than I expected. Love the demonstration of the full bridge rectifier. I had no idea converting from AC to DC was that simple.

    • Fortunately, I learned that 40+ years ago. With coils that are at different positions, they will produce AC peaks at different times (phases). In the 1800s they found out that 3 coils making 3 phases can provide smooth power without wobbling, which is really nice when the flywheel etc. all weigh multiple tonnes. Converting 3 phase AC to DC just needs an extra pair of diodes for the extra input wire.

  • you could sandwich as many coils and magnets as you want and use more negative opposing magnetic fields to make it so the shaft does not have to touch anything and can float. you can also seal this in a low pressure chamber to achieve near zero resistance spinning and full efficency

    • Not to put too fine a point on it, but the proper term is "Full wave bridge rectifier" for the device made up of 4 diodes. They can also be purchased as a package with 4 leads coming out. "Half wave bridge rectification in the case of this circuit could be accomplished with one diode.
