Chris Olsen has been busy experimenting and reporting his findings on the Fieldlines board
This single phase stator for a ten magnet dual-rotor turbine is his answer to the rising cost of neodymium magnets. As always Chris is pushing against the accepted way of doing things (3-phase, direct drive etc) so his project gives rise to some interesting discussions.
As an update to this post I offer this link to a discussion on the ‘Backshed’ forum where Chris describes his latest (2-bladed) creation and I argue the case for single stator alternators.
dear chris,
I want ask is this single phase stator?
thank you.
Fantastic, keep the good work up chris
i do follow mr.chris works on his youtube and fieldlines documentation, and definitely he was./is one among the inspirers on these projects.
