He literally figured out a propellantless engine that already slightly exceeds a 1G acceleration curve, not much within an atmosphere, but throw that system in space, with adequate power and well, just do the math, we could make it to Mars in less than a WEEK. Alpha Centauri in less than 8 years. All thanks to... ELECTROSTATICS!

I should add a few points: First, I like it. It's a great demonstration of induction motors. Second, if you replaced the heavy copper mountings on either side of the rotor with two coils and passed a current through them instead, you would have something very similar to a regular 2-pole induction motor. No need to make the current go through the rotor spindle. Adding some shorted coils next to the main coils would produce the "shaded pole" effect and the motor would self start. I'll try it and post the video. Or you could do that yourself....

This is the best motor/rotor I have ever seen!!

Excellent video. Amazing how long that flywheel keeps the shaft spinning when power is disconnected.

That's a beautiful motor. It appears that eddy currents are more useful than we think. Isn't that how the old electric wattmeter or energy meter (measuring kWh) works - a rotating disc of aluminium driven by a current-carrying coil? The drawback in this case is that the whole of the motor is electrified - hence the gloves, I would imagine. The amperage is also very high, and if the motor stalled for any reason then excessive heat would be generated. I would think that is the reason the low a.c. value of 6V is needed. It would be nice to measure the efficiency of the motor (i.e. mechanical power versus the input electrical power). It might be very low, frictional losses notwithstanding.

Mike oliver no, it's the magnetic fields produced that drive the motor. I don't fully understand it myself, but it's certainly not the balls. That would generate an equal force in both directions, thus producing no power.

It is not the balls heating up and changing into an elliptical shape that causes rotation,as the balls being that shape would exert the same force in either direction that would cancel out any unidirectional force that caused rotation. The rotation is caused by the two magnetic fields produced around the inner and outer bearing races,and the opposite field being created in the balls. Depending on which way you spin it,determonds which half of the magnetic field in the ball is closest to the opposite field that is created in the rings of the bearing's. Grab yourself a compass,and place it near the bearings when the device is running.

It's a single phase a.c. induction motor. The current in the rotor shaft and in the rotor itself is unimportant. The current on each side, going up from the connector to the bearing and down from the other bearing to the other connector creates a horizontal magnetic field tangential to the rotor. Eddy currents induced in the rotor cause the rotation. It will run either way.

I'm sorry? did you even read the article you linked? it works based on a minute magnetic force from two contacting conductors.

This motor is based on magnetostriction. The ball bearings undergo a shape change as the electric current is passed through them. Since the ball bearings are in point contact with both inner and outer race of the ball bearing itself. The motor, once started by hand will allow this alternating shape-change to force the rotor to rotate. Eventually the steel balls hard and polished surfaces will degrade due electro-erosion and the point contacts will be reduced thereby resulting in slowing down and eventually coming to a stop. It’s a laboratory curiosity and has no use in the real world.

To be clear the contact at the bearing is still engaged to the input current from the source you just add the field to the shaft too while the insulator on the bearing ID prevents the arcing.

The main advantage of graphite is it can be a dry lubrication and does not drag as much on the bearings, having tried silicon grease and seen heat dry it out it can set like glue. WD40 for example increases in viscosity as it dries out and becomes like glue and can cause a lot of drag as it dries out. But Graphite behaves in a different way as it can be both wet or dry lubrication. Provided the graphite is not suspended in a silicone based liquid that is. I would suggest experimenting with various types of lubrication as I have tried many on my large house fan as it was prone to seize up or squeal at me due to heat from the motor.

This is very interesting. I get the feeling that the current going through the bearings may be where the rotation force is created, the ball bearings being charged, and reacting to the bearing races? With that in mind., I would like to try this without the center flywheel to see if it still rotates the shaft. All in all, it is pretty amazing.

You came the closest to what I think is happening. Heat is the effect, magnetism is the cause. I was watching the mayan engine. It showed a magnet cut on a 45* angle on the N and S ends. Inbetween two parallel South sided facing magnets. The 45* angle magnet slid off rapidly to the side. If the 45* angle magnet was the ballbearing and the race and outer ring were the S facing magnets then, this is why the motor rotates. Not heat which would slow the motor down until it seizes. Car engines have starters, we used to crank cars over by hand.

Put some magnets on the flywheel moving past coils for another way, also if you attach an electric motor to the generator shaft to create the intermittent start up power supply with capacitors. Just a thought

Unless the many angles of the ball is needed to create this magnetic effect, The one angle of the roller bearing should be enough. It's not a heat engine. It's magnetic energy produced by the high amps. If there's current, there's magnetic fields. 230v to 6v, 20a/6v=0.3r, 0.3r/230v=0.0013a The flywheel works just like a flywheel, torque is stored in it.

In my opinion, the flywheel is axially magnetized. Current can be either direct or alternating. When current flows through the two bearings supporting the shaft, the balls become conductive rods in the magnetic field and the balls are pushed in the same direction, so the shaft rotates. The direction of shaft rotation, with AC depends on the direction of the axial magnetic field of the flywheel, with DC depends on the direction of the current and the direction of the axial magnetic field of the flywheel.

The flywheel is likely made of "soft iron" (easily magnetized and demagnetized). The alternating current magnetizes the iron, which then interacts with the field from the circuit. This also applies to your other video with the washing machine motor.

Called a homopolar motor.

It´s based on the unipolar effect (Otto Schulz, Leipzig 1908)

The current flows through the shaft & flywheel while the magnetic field surrounds and spins around both, but centrifugal force of rotation will also tend to throw off electrons, possibly interacting with the field, kinda' like the Searl disk. Why not spin it vertically with some outboard magnets and see if it takes off!

is it a form of tesla iron lag motor, its very basic and similar to this design, iron slightly magnetizes and holds a field till another pulse comes along and causes a force of rotation.

Mine worked using two bearings from two vacuum cleaner motors and a heavy fly wheel turned on a lathe!

because high current is technically simply passing through a conductor, there must be a magnetic field present. You pass current through a straight wire and the field will rotate at 90 degrees of course. the question is what makes the rotor spin lol. what is the created magnetic field in the shaft interacting with.. I have to assume lorentz force is working here and somehow either each bearing and each end of the shaft, or something else is creating a field as well.

Fascinating! How much torque would you say this kind of motor makes?

the copper straps holding the ball bearings must disperse the heat, but even so you wouldn't be able to run to long, even with better heat sinks

The bearings are either having an electro-magnetic charge as a result of the copper around them with the electric charge or the bearings themselve are homemade with the magnetic spheres. You aren't getting one over that easy. Clever set up though.

interesting but the rings on the inside are magnets right and the outer rings are metal so when you run a current across them an apposing magnetic flux is created and the Motor spins.. simple but realy cool motor. you can also generate power by spinning the rotor.

Its part of the infamous homopolar generator, however, you are only using the "motor" part of the principle. Tesla's version had both the generator and the motor functioning as one unit. Long story short, you would spin one disk with the magnetic field oriented in one direction, this would spin the electrons out from the center toward the periphery, the electrons were conducted via a conducting belt to the other disk, spinning the same direction, but the magnetic field was oriented in the opposite direction, causing the electrons to flow from the periphery toward the center, thus "motoring" the second disk, there you have a self exciting or self running dynamo electric generator.

i think because of the bearing it rotates so smoothly and it lessen the force that can interact to stop the iron flywhell to rotate. its kinda first law of motion.it stay in motion unless their is an unbalance force acting on, causing it to stop.

fairly much the same principle as an arc reactor

i wonder if this would work with fresh shielded bearings probably too much friction?

Does this also mean that if heat conducted properly from the bearings during the inception of the motion then the motor shouldn't work?

I really dig this machine a lot. I've watched this presentation many times. I see great potential in using the stored energy within the system, which can be syphoned off that flywheel (which could be made much heavier... instead of 5 pounds, try 50 pounds) to make lots of electricity, some of which will power the device and keep it running... dare I say it, endlessly. Try creating a vertical axis version, which will reduce the stress/wear on the ball bearings... and add an airing to the base of the shaft. An "airing" is a pair of magnets facing off to create an air cushion, i.e. no friction from metal to metal contact.

Could it be that the bearings want to spin, therefore driving the shaft by friction a little like gears being driven from a pinion. I am interested to know if you can generate electricity from this if it is spun fast enough, low volts high amperage output could be interesting in a generator.

Like earth, inner is heating

I just built one of these and it works!!! I have to-much clamping force on the bearings. the wires I used are jump starting wires. they get hot and it doesn't quite scream;-) but it does spin up much faster than I can spin it by hand, I'll post my own video of it/mine once it's tuned and will really spin up........

I made something similar out of a video head bearing assembly and shaft after reading an article in "Electronics and Wireless World" magazine some thirty years ago! The propulsion is provided by heated gasses caused by sparks at the points where the ball bearings make contact with the inner and outer bearing races. The bearings get hot and wear out very quickly. An interesting device but does it have any practical applications?

if the current is only used to heat the ball bearings, could another heat source be utilized? Say, a focused solar beam for example?

Si lo tocas cuando esta encendido, da calmbre?

We must to see the rpm , has strong force for use It?

Good thing, that the wheel and the bearings are finely arrange,if not that project would fail because it will shake and disturbs the laws of physics

Once again an exellent work! Its really strange... I can't understand where the electromagnetic force come from... The midle disk is magnet?
