Minato's magnetic motor: is there a cornucopia of magnetic energy?

 


Using the Minato engine and similar structures as an example, the possibility of using magnetic field energy and the difficulties associated with its practical application are considered.

Minato Magnetic MotorIn our daily lives, we rarely notice the field form of the existence of matter. Unless, when we fall. Then the gravitational field becomes a painful reality for us. But there is one exception - field of permanent magnets. Almost everyone in childhood played with them, panting to break two magnets. Or, with the same excitement, move the stubbornly opposing poles of the same name.

With age, interest in this occupation disappeared, or, conversely, became the subject of serious research. Idea practical use of the magnetic field appeared long before the theories of modern physics. And the main thing in this idea was the desire to use the “eternal” magnetization of materials to obtain useful work or “free” electrical energy.

Inventive attempts at the practical use of a constant magnetic field in engines or electric generators do not stop today. The appearance of modern rare-earth magnets with a high coercive force has fueled interest in such developments.

Kokhei MinatoAn abundance of witty designs of varying degrees of efficiency flooded the information space of the network. Among them stands out mover of Japanese inventor Kohei Minato.

Minato himself is a musician by profession, but has been developing for many years magnetic motor own design, invented, according to him, during a concert of piano music. It's hard to say what kind of musician Minato was, but he turned out to be a good businessman: he has patented his engine in 46 countries and continues this process today.

It should be noted that modern inventors behave rather inconsistently. Dreaming of making mankind happy with their inventions and staying in history, they try with equal diligence to hide the details of their developments, hoping in the future to receive dividends from the sale of their ideas. But worth remembering Nikola Teslawhen he, in order to promote his three-phase motors, refused patent deductions from the company that mastered their release.


Back to Minato's magnetic motor. Among many other similar designs, his product stands out for its very high efficiency. Without going into details of the design of the magnetic motor, which are still hidden in the patent descriptions, it is necessary to note several of its features.

Minato Magnetic MotorIn its magnetic motor, sets of permanent magnets are located on the rotor at certain angles to the axis of rotation. The passage of the “dead” point by magnets, which, according to Minato's terminology, is called the “collapse” point, is ensured by supplying a short powerful pulse to the stator's electromagnetic coil.

It is this feature that ensured Minato's design high efficiency and quiet operation at high speeds. But the assertion that the engine's efficiency exceeds unity does not have any basis.

To analyze Minato’s magnetic motor and similar structures, consider the concept of “latent” energy. Latent energy is inherent in all types of fuel: for coal it is 33 J / gram; for oil - 44 J / gram. But the energy of nuclear fuel is estimated at 43 billion of these units. According to various, conflicting estimates, the latent energy of the permanent magnet field is about 30% of the potential of nuclear fuel, i.e. It is one of the most energy-intensive sources of energy.

But using this energy is far from easy.If oil and gas, when ignited, immediately gives up all its energy potential, then with a magnetic field, everything is not so simple. The energy stored in a permanent magnet can do useful work, but the design of the propulsors is very complex. An analogue of a magnet can be a battery of very large capacity with no less large internal resistance.

Therefore, several problems immediately arise: it is difficult to obtain large power on the motor shaft with its small dimensions and mass. A magnetic motor will lose its power over time as it consumes stored energy. Even the assumption that energy is being replenished Earth's magnetic fieldcannot fix this flaw.

The main drawback is the requirement for precision assembly of the engine design, which prevents its mass development. Minato has so far been working to determine the optimal arrangement of permanent magnets.

Therefore, his grievances against Japanese corporations that do not want to master the invention are unfounded. When choosing an engine, any engineer, first of all, will be interested in its load characteristics, power degradation during the service life, and a number of characteristics. Similar information on Minato engines, as well as the rest of the designs, is still missing.

Rare examples of the practical embodiment of magnetic motors raise more questions than admiration. Recently, SEG from Switzerland announced its readiness to produce compact generators for order, in which a variety Searl magnetic motor.

The generator generates a power of about 15 kW, has dimensions of 46x61x12cm and a service life of up to 60 MW-hours. This corresponds to an average life of 4,000 hours. But what will be the characteristics at the end of this period?

The company honestly warns that after this it is necessary to re-magnetize the permanent magnets. What is behind this procedure is unclear, but most likely, this is a complete disassembly and replacement of magnets in a magnetic motor. And the price of such a generator is more than 8500 euros.

Minato also announced a contract for the manufacture of 40,000 fans with magnetic motors. But all these examples of practical application are single. Moreover, no one claims at the same time that their devices have an efficiency of more than one, and they will work “forever”.

If the traditional induction motor is made of modern expensive materials, for example, silver windings, and the magnetic circuit is made of thin steel amorphous tape (glass metal), then at a price comparable to a magnetic motor we get a close efficiency. At the same time, induction motors will have a significantly longer service life with ease of manufacture.

Summing up, it can be argued that so far no successful designs of magnetic motors suitable for mass industrial development have been created. Those samples that are workable require engineering refinement, expensive materials, precision, individual customization and cannot compete with already mastered engine types. And the allegations that these engines can work for an unlimited time without supplying energy are completely groundless.

    Doubt is caused by the quality of the article (or its translation), for example: "work resource up to 60 MW / hours." What a mysterious unit of the generator’s working resource and at what load power is this possible or is it an energy indicator, while it turns into 4000 hours? Please comment on why megawatts should be divided by an hour? What nonsense of Chubais energy.All of his followers (RECs, energy sales, etc.) and this do you sin too? Please check the text, add comments and improve the quality (although it sounds socialist) ... I sometimes recommend your site ....

    ! 5 kW multiplied by 4000 hours, received 60,000 kWh. Kilowatts were replaced with 1000 watts and received 60 MWh.

    The thing is different. No more energy can be obtained from a magnet than expended during magnetization. If Minato intends to use the energy of moving electrons - the flag is in his hands!

    Yes in the article a typo. Already fixed. Actually - 60,000 MW-hours, although the designation MW / hour is very common even in official documents, I'm not talking about newspapers and magazines. "MW / h" is even in the spelling dictionary: "MW / h - megawatt-hour" (Russian Spelling Dictionary. / Russian Academy of Sciences. Institute of Russian. Named after VV Vinogradov. - M.: "Alphabet Book". 1999.)

    In article 60,000 MWh, this is the calculated value of the total life of the generator for 4000 hours.

    The quality of the article is poor.
    To be honest, I had to think over the article for a very long time in order to understand the comparisons that the author should make in order to become good, but he himself apparently did not fully understand the topic he was explaining.
    I did not immediately understand how to compare the efficiency of an asynchronous electric motor and a magnetic motor. It appears from the text that the magnetic motor acts as a generator, because it does not receive energy, but to compare the generator and engine in terms of efficiency? it would be strange. But if we compare them by the permanent magnetization used in a magnetic motor, permanent magnets, electricity, there is no such comparison in the article, then asynchronous motors may even benefit. It is more correct to compare magnetic motors with a battery-intermediate equipment system, if necessary (for example, an inverter), an electric motor, or with an internal combustion engine, but at the cost of a kilometer or kW

    What mankind knows is limited. What it does not know is infinity. The topic of magnetic motors is very interesting. I believe that enthusiasts should continue scientific research and experiments in each promising direction. And if now there are no affordable technologies for cheaper components, then who knows what the future is coming for us !?

    On these principles, you can make many designs. We did one of them in the army with nothing to do on duty (he served as an electrician in an autobat). They took the rod from the ballpoint pen, naturally without paste, they filled it with mercury (we had several cans of this rubbish, from where - don’t ask, I won’t tell), we rolled the rod into a ring, this is the most difficult thing so that there is no air bubble in the ring. Then a piece of polystyrene was cut out under the ring in the form of a disk with a thickness of 3-4 mm and lowered into a jar of water (a jar of plastic). To the bank are two permanent magnets 180 g. and two of home-made 12 V car relays. The coils of these relays - through the disconnector - are connected to the 12 V battery, too. You should have seen how this ring in the water raises a storm ... This is something. By the way, we tried to do this with wire - it doesn’t work.

    Dear Sirs!

    The conversations are smart, but they have nothing to do with the matter. What is the essence of Minato’s magnetic motor? Yes, in fact, the fact of the matter is that it, containing for example a magnetic rotor with alternating poles of magnets, and a stator with electromagnets, allows you to make asymmetry in the interaction of magnets with the stator at a certain time of the rotor's motion relative to the stator.If in part of the working cycle, when there is no current in the EM coils, then the rotor magnets simply magnetize badly to the stator piece of iron and perform gratuitous work. But if in the same state the rotor magnets reach the point of equilibrium interaction with iron, then after it the rotor will begin to consume inertia in order to overcome the force of reverse attraction. Well, and what to do? Yes, everything is very simple! It is necessary to make iron use no longer possess magnetic properties. How? And to give such a current to the coils that he would demagnetize the iron. And then the rotor calmly flies past this malicious gap and reaches the position where the magnets will again begin to be attracted to the iron in the right direction. At this moment, the current must be turned off and everything will return "to normal" Then - turn it on again, then turn it off again ... And with such cycles the rotor will continue to rotate on the pure energy of the magnets.

    But what about the stator demagnetization current? This current does not work and therefore is spent only on the creation of a counter magnetic field and a loss in the active resistance of the coils. Well, with ohmic losses, what the hell are you going to do, but what went into creating the MP can be returned back to the source, or rather to its capacitive storage. Well, what is needed for this and what should be the dimensions of the stator, rotor, what induction magnets and how to close the magnetic field - here you have a field for plowing.

    I have such a machine that language doesn’t even turn into a machine - it is made of what was at hand and made with those hands that are, that is, very bad and not optimal, and it gave out twenty-five watts of completely gratuitous energy. It consumed about 100 watts from a 24-volt battery, basked like the last bastard, and when I connected the load from wire cutters to the generator output, the current grew in them, the voltage from the generator was the same - the machine worked only at one frequency , on others there was no synchronization with the position of the rotor magnets - and at the output I received up to 25 watts. At the same time, the current consumed by the engine did not change at all, although it should have increased by one ampere.

    He showed it to some men, even with a very decent Fiztekhov education, but everyone saw that the car was eating more than it was giving out. It's a shame: I didn’t finish the physics and technology classes, the usual Aviation Institute ... But the car worked. If I found somewhere with one and a half million, then in the summer I would ride a bike with very low power consumption from the battery. But there are none yet. They say it right: an established myth is stronger than any concrete wall. Well, God be their judge ...

    Bad news:

    The eternal "source" of energy is impossible.

    Good news:

    An “eternal” pump of energy from outside is possible.

    It’s just possible to pump energy from the water cycle, or from the air cycle, or directly from what the water cycle and the air cycle are charged from, from the induction cycle of the Earth’s electromagnetic field, which receives energy from the Earth’s cyclic motion relative to the interstellar physical vacuum and contained in it "white noise" - the total "background" energy, replenished from all sources of radiation of the universe.

    What is called "refer to the source".

    Nikolay Klimov,  
    Hello. It is possible to save energy significantly, without high costs. If you rewind a turn of one wiring from the bundle without touching the rest (primary or secondary) at the head transformers of a nuclear power plant, hydroelectric power station or thermal power plant (and there is not much work there - a maximum of a week), then there will be a significant saving in electric energy, as voltage will become normal, not 220, but 200, or even 180 volts. And all devices will work even better than at 220 V. This is how the effect of uneven magnetic fluxes discovered by me works! And on all welding machines in the country, and on all electric arc furnaces, you can immediately reduce the voltage by at least 1 third.This effect manifests itself in the fact that the voltage becomes cleaner due to the overflow of magnetic flux between uneven coils (when a sinusoid passes through 0, a small shelf appears). As a result, energy losses due to harmonics, hysteresis, are reduced .... The following describes how the discovery of this effect happened, and in the investment a new worldview.

    Since 1991, almost every day, for almost 10 years, I have been wondering why the UNION collapsed. Probably thousands of different answers did not satisfy me. Finally, in 2000, an understanding came, after which 2 weeks I walked like a bruiser. I did not want to believe in all this, but it explained everything. Not only the collapse of the UNION, but in general EVERYTHING !!! Until confirmation of the correctness of the RESPONSE came. (After a practical test, he had to come to terms and get used to it).

    Perhaps it is worth describing it: I had a welding machine, homemade, wound on a torus, very tight, but the secondary contained only 47 volts, the arc was powerful, but not stable, it often broke, so I did another one, and this one was lying about a year and a half. The primary is wound in 2 wires. And at night (I do not know in a dream or not) the idea came to rewind a coil of one wire of the primary. In the morning, at first I thought - nonsense, then I thought - and what if the worldview that has arrived is correct, then you need to check every thought in technology, especially since it is very easy to rewind the coil. On the same day I rewound it, carefully connected it to the network, expecting (like an energy engineer by education) a large increase in idle speed. He did not increase !!! I tried to cook and did not recognize the device !!! It’s hard to tear off an arc !!! Power is much more !!!

    He began to unwind the secondary. It turned out 33 volts is enough for normal welding, instead of 60 and !!!!!!! Almost 2 times reduced energy consumption, with the same welding current !!! I still have this device in the garage. Then there were many small discoveries and inventions, he even filed 2 patents. In general, I’m completely sure now that the worldview is correct.

    Why did he go knocked down? It turns out we, the people themselves, are just vegetables. Yes, yes, we cannot even be called biorobots. A man in a coma is what a man is in and of itself, without a SOUL. We are simply Her body. Our brains serve almost exclusively to connect the body with the SOUL. Memory, logic, feelings ... everything is HERE !!!

    He also invented an extremely simple, technologically advanced and much more efficient commutator electric motor. The effect is achieved by a more complete use of magnetic field energy. From physics it is known that it is equal to half the induction times the square of the current. All collector motors use very sophisticated windings and very small inductance - units of milligenri. (In practice, only the magnetic field of the square of the current works) They are afraid of brush sparking, therefore they are ineffective. I learned (on small engines) to use hundreds and thousands of milligenes, with extremely simple windings (one or two) with little sparking! And the efficiency is significantly higher. It will be especially effective in electric vehicles - several times better than existing ones, and indeed everywhere.

    To make a serious example, I have almost everything ready - a stator with 2 poles, a collector with 2 poles, 2 brushes and a shaft.

    We need a magnetic circuit on the shaft (in order to wind one winding) in the form of two mushrooms with legs together, with as much magnetic permeability (and saturation induction) as possible, but not less than 25,000 units.

    Can someone make it from electrical, or nanocrystalline (very desirable from it), iron and sell it to me?

    A dense package of sheets of the magnetic circuit must be 80 mm thick. The width of the sheets is 120-150 mm, length 174 with the radius of the sheets - 87 mm. In the narrow part 60-80 mm In the wide - 120-150 mm. The hole for the shaft is 28 mm. The keyway is 8 mm wide and 4 mm deep. I would be very grateful for your help.

    Having a constant force of attraction or repulsion of two magnets to make the engine elementary simple. It is necessary to transform suppose the repulsive force in the torque. To do this is extremely simple, you need to think a little and that's it. There are many very complex and inefficient designs on the Internet. And by the way, everything is elementary simple. But for some reason no one can think of this.

    I posted a video on YouTube in several series. It is called "ENDLESS" ENERGY FROM MAGNETS (1st, 2nd, 3rd series). In the second series, Minato spoke about the engine. I would like to know the opinion of the audience on this subject.

    Then the news reached me that in the case of those crumbling “super-unit” Minato engines, the problem got out related to the abnormally fast demagnetization of magnets. I posted the video on my channel (YouTube) with the slander “Igor Beletsky almost made the Kokhei Minato engine” what I made Beletsky is essentially a close analogue of the Minto engine, only a key element is missing Well, in my video there is a clear explanation of why Minato’s magnets should inevitably be demagnetized to provide the very “super unit”
