Interference Disc Generator and the Multiphase Permanent Magnet DynamoThe Quest for Free Energy by Part II of II
Continued from Part IThe following is the last portion of Alan's write-up, and is missing some images. Doc 5 (cont.) The Permanent Magnet DynamoI would like to begin this topic at this point in describing my permanent magnet dynamo machine. I designed this machine to be completely interchangeable into many different motor generator combinations. These combinations involve different number of magnetic poles and different number of interchangeable coil poles in the same machine, two versions are possible, one with isolated coils and another where the coils that share a common core fig. 25. We can change the magnetically balancing effect (holding force) by changing the number of coil poles or (interference disc fins) in relation to the magnetic poles. This turns the machine into a multipurpose, multiphase, variable output, and variable frequency ac dc permanent magnet motor generator system. I first designed this unique multi purpose dynamo in 1987 after I built my third Interference Disc generator.

Dynamo description: Rotor: It is well known that a bar magnet has its magnetic field concentrated at the N and S pole ends, and the half way line between the poles of a magnet is the neutral zone, this is the region where the magnetic field is canceled or neutralized. The ferrous keeper ring I designed for this rotor is mounted near the axle and it has machined flat decks so the magnets attach flush to the deck of the keeper ring. Because of this feature, flux leakage is reduced at the keeper ring and the magnetic field concentrates at the rotor poles. With the poles of the magnet positioned near the axle and attached to the keeper ring in the rotor, the magnetic field that was there is now forced to add magnetic field density to the outer magnetic poles on the rotor rim. The density of the magnetic field at the poles is now greatly increased which makes a very powerful small size rotor. The ferrous inner keeper ring (active iron) that is installed inside this rotor design, is also the neutral zone of the magnetic field when viewing all the combined permanent magnets in the rotor. Shown is a cut away view diagram of the rotor, fig. 26.
Fig. 26 I utilize rare earth rectangular shape neodymium grade 35 bar magnets with the dimensions of 3" long and 1"x1" on the end poles. There are 12 bar magnets mounted 30 degrees apart in NSNS configuration, and the bar magnets are attached to a precision machined inner keeper ring which makes the active iron the region of the middle of the magnetic field (the neutral zone). Another way to view this is to imagine two 3" long bar magnets attached together, you now have a 6" long magnet. Bend this magnet in half and install iron at the U and it now becomes a horseshoe magnet with two 3" long pole ends. It’s a powerful rotor design in the fact that each of the 3" long bar magnetic poles has the field strength of a 6" long bar magnet. More poles on the rotor will allow for higher frequency ac generation at lower rpms, twelve magnetic poles on each rotor is shown in fig. 27, 28.
The drawing in fig. 29, 32, and picture in fig. 30, shows twelve magnet poles in each rotor in relation to the position of the coils. Ten amorphous cores are shown mounted around each of three rotors before they were wound with magnet wire fig. 30. The machine I have constructed houses a total of three rotors side by side that are mounted 10 degrees apart in relation to their magnetic poles, each rotor has twelve magnets installed for a total of 36 magnetic poles shown in fig. 29. This dynamo concept can be constructed to any size with unlimited numbers of rotors and coil combinations to fit any power requirements.

It is well known that a magnet exerts a force of attraction to iron bringing them closer together, after they have come together, they are in their static position. A force must be exerted to either the magnet or the iron in order to pull the magnet and the iron apart, removing them from their static position. The term static position is used to describe the point when the magnet and the iron bar are at their closes point. As in the Interference Disc Generator, this Permanent Magnet Dynamo I am describing also uses an internal magnetic balancing effect which reduces startup torque on the rotor. In this system, one set of magnets is in their static position in relation to the coils, such as the impulse coils. Another set of magnets on one side of the rotor is not in the static position, and there is another set of magnets that is not in its static position on the opposite side. One side is half in to the coils, and the other side is half out the coils, allowing the rotor to have minimal start up torque in turning the rotor, fig. 31. The magnets function in two jobs, the first with its velocity is to cause induction into the transformer coils producing ac power. The second function, is the opposite pair magnetic fields on the rotor balancing each magnet out of their static position in relation to the coil positions at any given time, they cancel their holding force which puts the rotor at equilibrium. This reduces the amount of start up energy required to rotate the rotor resulting in higher efficiency. It allows the rotor and or multiple rotors to turn easily and efficiently despite the inherent powerful holding force of the rare earth neodymium magnets.
Fig. 31 Fig. 32
Looking at the coils in fig. 32, the coils marked A and F represent the motor impulse coils, these coils can be wired to match any high voltage or low volts impulse source. With the three rotor machine configuration, I have connected 6 impulse coils in three phase to function as the motor impulse circuits with a hall effect brushless motor controller fig. 31, 33. As a permanent magnet motor generator, the efficiency of this three phase motor set up has shown to be in the high 90%, still a little under unity, but not bad for AC coming out of the regenerating coils. All regenerating coils are also shown in fig. 32, and are marked with letters A through to J. These coils are isolated from each other and are connected in phase with there opposite counter part. The regenerating coils marked J and E are in phase and connected as one larger coil, the other pair of coils marked I and D are also in phase with each other, as is coils H and C, and coils G and B.
Star wound three phase motor impulse coils. Fig. 33
Each AC to DC regenerating coils, and other isolated AC output coils have a machined phanolic holding rod that houses 59 feet of amorphous metglass material, which give a 1” diameter and 2” long core, shown in fig. 34. All of these coils are interchangeable from one coil mount to the other so as to tailor the machine to any desired power application.
Fig. 34 Shown in fig. 35 are 10 coils, with 9 of them wound with 735 turns of #18 magnet wire for 120 volts ac output, and coils for DC output are shown in fig 41, 41a. One impulse core is shown in the far right, with an unwound regenerating core shown beside it, and a phanolic core holding rod and coil winding backing plate is shown in fig. 34a.
Fig. 34a
On the upper far left, there are two amorphous mobius coils under construction for experimenting. I think they may work well for an interesting MEG project with an added twist to the core.
Fig. 35
I wound all AC regenerating output cores with cobalt base metglass into magnetically hollow core cylinders shown in fig. 36, and all the motor impulse solid cores are constructed of nickel base metglass shown far right in fig. 35. The motor impulse core dimensions are 1”x1”x3” with the first two inches for the coil winding, and the other 1” portion inserted into the coil mounting bracket shown in fig. 37. This is the coil that has produced 20 amps at 10 volts ac, and it is to be used for the single phase or three phase ac dynamo option, with 12 of these in phase coils wired in series for 120 volts output at 20 amps. Depending on the type and efficiency of the drive motor and when used as an AC
Doc 7 ***dynamo, each rotor and 12 coil ring assembly can produce over 1200 watts output with over 95% efficiency or greater. However, test running of a 1hp dc electric motor while producing ac current from the coils at 60 to 120 cycles per second, have shown a drop in the systems total efficiency to around 80%. The low efficiency of the dc test motor must be accounted for. This dynamo demonstrates high efficiency from the mechanical rotation of the permanent magnet rotors to electrical power out of the amorphous coils, in spite of how you turn the rotor using wind, micro hydro, etc.

Fig. 37
The dimensions of the phanolic motor coil mounting hardware are shown in fig. 38. The impulse coils mount to these brackets and are inserted into the holding slots on the machine. They are interchangeable with the regenerating coil mounting brackets as they both fit into the same holding slots. Looking at fig. 39, there are differences in the way the motor impulse coils are mounted as compared to the regenerating coil mounting brackets. This drawing is of the same phanolic bracket shown in fig. 37. Holes are drilled into the blocks were the regenerating coils are inserted with a holding bolt on the top. The cores of the regenerating coils are smaller then the cores of the impulse coils because there is less impulse coils as regenerating coils installed on the machine, and any amount of coils can be add or subtracted as needed.

Doc 7a ***This has an advantage of interchanging one coil for another into the same holding slot with out effecting the rotors on the machine. The more coils there are on the machine, the greater amount of electricity can be generated. Letter U shape aluminum pieces are used to hold all the coil mounting brackets on the walls of the machine, and the dimensions are shown in fig. 40, 40a.
Fig. 40 Fig. 40a The U shape mounts are assembled equal distance from each other on the wall stator, and depending on the amount of coils and phases one wishes to configure into the machine, up to 12 coil U mounts are installed. However, 10 coil mounts are shown in all drawings and pictures in this writing.
Fig. 41 Fig. 41a The finished coils shown in fig 41 and 41a, are wound with 334 turns of #15 magnet wire. When ac is rectified into dc, the coils produce up to 18 volts DC depending on the rapidity of alterations of the coils. Each coil can produce up to 125 watts of electricity, with the exception of the coil in fig. 36a. Or another way to explain this, using the rotors I describe in this writing each coil has the ability to produce up to 125 watts electrical
Doc 7b ***output. It matters not if you wind the coils for high voltage or low voltage AC or DC output; each coil will still produce up to 125 watts of power. When six in phase coils are connected in series or parallel, the output power also multiplies by six, and so will the energy input so long as the machine is used as a conventional single phase or three phase dynamo power supply. If twelve coils are mounted around each rotor, all the coils on that rotor will be in phase for a single phase AC/DC dynamo. Take three rotors side by side with 12 coils around each rotor, spiral these rotors out of phase by 10 degrees as shown in fig. 42, it makes a three phase dynamo capable of producing around 4kw of electricity.
Fig. 42
Shown in figs 43, 43a, 43b, 43c is a version of this dynamo with one finished rotor. Fig. 43 Fig 43a Doc 8 ***

Two more pictures of the one rotor dynamo option are shown with a 1hp dc motor turning the rotor with an 800 watt load on the coils, six 100 watt AC light bulbs, and two 100 watt 12 volt DC light bulbs, Fig. 44, 44a
Fig. 44 Fig. 44a The efficiencies of this dynamo are so far inconclusive with regards to producing an endless self running machine. Our research is continuing to improve the efficiency by eliminating all conventional type ac and dc motors from this dynamo, and incorporating high voltage dc impulses of very short time durations as Ed Gray did with his technology years ago. However, a description of my early self running attempts are included near the end of this dynamo report. These tests have manifested an abundance of heat in the 24 volt dc drive motor. Another picture of the three-rotor dynamo configuration is shown with 12 regenerating ac to dc coils, and with the motor impulse coils removed fig. 45.
Fig. 45 Fig. 45a Another close up of the regenerating coils and three phase motor impulse coils is shown on the dynamo fig. 46. Fig. 46
Tests to produce an abundance of heat. I have testing the machine so as the output coils are connected to regenerate a 12 volt battery as the motor is turning the rotors. I used a bran new conventional permanent magnet 1/4 hp 24 volt dc motor that is running on 12 volts to turn the 110 pound 3 balanced rotors, and or the 35 pound 1 balanced rotor version. The regenerating output coils produce AC to DC power with no noticeable ripple on the scope. The generated direct current from the coils is connected to go back into the battery, in which the motor uses to produce the torque needed to rotate the rotor. As this happens, the regenerated dc power from the coils is again going back into the battery first, and then to the motor. The result is that the battery supplies less power to the motor when the regenerating DC current is going into the battery. The motor takes on a load from two sources, one is from free wheeling the rotor with out loading or drawing current from the coils, and the other is the load induced on the motor when the coils are loaded to produce current. The dc permanent magnet motor has shown that during one of many switch mode tests, it consumes 15 amps at 12 volts from the battery while a chosen number of regenerating coils supply ½ the amount of current going back to the battery. The battery supplies 50% of the amps and the regenerating coils supply the other 50% amps. This effect can be changed depending on how many open isolated regenerating banks of coils are activated and loaded. This test shows a 15 amp draw the motor while it is turning the rotors under load while regenerating current from the coils. It may be they balance each other and both battery and coils supply 7.5 amps each that make the total 15 amps draw on the motor. This accounts for the 15 amps total load that is shown on the dc drive motor. It produces an excessively large amount of heat in the dc motor that is useable output energy. On a larger scale the heat generated in a given motor can be enormous. More accurate measurements are needed to determine the true energy in verses energy out. However, this electric heat pump effect can be altered to produce more or less heat depending on the size and type of the drive motor, and the amount of regenerating coils that are placed under load. Cooling tubes wound around the motor with water flowing through them is a way to pull the heat out for useful applications. Hot water from the drive motor and electric power from the coils at the same time. After running the machine, the amorphous regenerating coils remain cool to the touch where as the conventional dc motor gets very hot with higher amps going through it. The machine also has a longer running time when the coils are regenerating the battery, as compared to running an outside equal load with the same amp draw, in that case the battery drains much faster. This sheds light with the observation of high heat build up in the motor side (less efficient side) of the circuit while being cooler on the generator side (amorphous side) of the circuit. After hours of run time the battery begins to drain, when this happens, the battery begins to show tangible temperature changes from one side of the battery to the other. The whole negative side of the battery remains cool to the touch (temperature drop), while the whole positive side of the battery gets warmer to the touch (temperature rise). The effect is repeatable and only happens when the regenerating coils are connected to charge the battery as it is running. It may be approximately 20 degrees difference in temperature, depending on how many regenerating coils are activated sending its current to the battery. There must be exothermic reactions and endothermic reactions going on inside the battery motor generator combination that is causing this temperature difference. The load and heat generated can be changed the on the motor from the flick of a switch that activates and loads the output coils, which in turn dumps it's energy back into the battery pack or outside load. The efficiency ratio of the machine changes depending on how many and which banks of regenerating coils are activated, which again also effects the temperature difference manifesting on each side of the battery, motor, and amorphous coils.
Other tests. An Automotion dc brushless 3 phase motor controller with hall sensors was used to test the machine in fig. 45a. Tests have shown the 1hp dc motor and the three phase brushless dc motor controller will not be the answer to closing the loop on this motor generator machine. The brushless controller has a 50% duty cycle which will not manifest the electro radiant effect, and it also has a constant draw on the battery as a regular dc motor does. It is much less efficient than using very fast and short unidirectional dc impulses in the motor impulse coils to kick the rotor around. This brings the subject of Nikola Tesla’s magnifying transmitter and Ed Gray’s radiant energy impulse motors to light, and a possibly answer to closing the loop for a real auto-rotating machine.
Before I go further with this, I want to point out the many phase possibilities this dynamo has. If you look at the coil arrangements in the 10 coil machine, you can clearly see the coils that are in phase with each other. When a second and third rotor is installed with all the coils attached, one pair of coils on the first rotor is in phase with another pair of coils on the second rotor, and another pair of coils is in phase on the third rotor. With the ten coil to twelve magnet pole rotor assembly, the machine has five phases of isolated banks of coils. If twelve coil mounting bars are attached around the three rotors, and the three rotors are spiraled off set by 10 degrees, you will have a powerful three phase dynamo. If the rotors are not off set by 10 degrees and are lined up in phase with each other, all the coils on the machine will be in phase for a powerful single phase dynamo. The volts and or amperage can be tailored for an application by the winding of the transformer coils, and the machine produces 60hz at 600 rpm. This dynamo machine concept is also interchangeable into many other motor generator combinations, and sizes, and any volts or amps requirements, it all depends on the needs of the end user.
Doc 9 ***It is possible to have super efficiencies with this system using unidirectional hv dc impulses of very short duration’s at the make brake contact at the closure of the switch. I have acquired two of Ed Gray’s radiant energy impulse motors #4 and #5 to revive an almost lost technology. I am proposing to combine a special permanent magnet dynamo with less back EMF that is tailored to produce 5kv dc under 2000rpm. This dynamo will energize a 5kv dc capacitor bank and replace Gray’s 12 volt to 5kv dc converter. The energized capacitor bank will discharge through the conversion tubes in the very same manner as in Gray’s original circuit, only the capacitors will get energized from the high voltage dc dynamo instead of from a battery through an inverter. This version of a high voltage dc dynamo will be connected to and turned by Ed Gray’s EMA motor, a starter motor will disengage after it begins running. There are three banks of high voltage coils that are connected 120 degrees out of phase from each other, each bank represents 12 - 100 watt coils for a total of 1200 watts per phase. All isolated coils in each phase are wired in series to produce the high voltage dc potentual to energize the capacitor bank. The isolated capacitor bank will discharge their potential through its conversion tubes in 120 degree increments each time the impulse coils are at their closes point toward each other. One isolated capacitor bank will discharge through the conversion tube with it disconnected from the dc dynamo circuit. The second isolated capacitor is at this point beginning to receive its charge from the dc dynamo, while the third capacitor phase is fully energized just before the switching circuit disconnects it from the dc dynamo for it discharge phase. This fully aligns all the isolated 3 coil phases in this permanent magnet dynamo system to the 120 degree three phase radiant energy impulse system of Ed Gray’s EMA motor #5. The plan is to eliminate all the batteries and converter and use a rotating high voltage dc dynamo in its place. Nikola Tesla used high voltage dc dynamos with capacitors as part of his magnifying transmitter to produce radiant electricity. So it seems logical to do the same thing, merging Ed Gray’s radiant energy motor and our version of a high voltage dc permanent magnet dynamo. Could it regenerate a car, or power a home, and or a factory? Shown below are pictures of Ed Gray’s motors in fig 47, 48, 49, 50.

I would like to acknowledge two friends of mine who have helped make the Interference Disc machine possible, Bud Johnson 1986 shown in fig. 51 and the late Dr. Carl Reich shown 1987 in fig. 52. I would also like to acknowledge Wilbert Griffith and Brian & Rose Langan for their contribution in helping us make these projects possible, and there are others who wish to remain anonymous. Bud Johnson also an inventor, was one of the first people who I met after relocating to Alberta from the NWT, he made arrangements for us to construct the first disc machine in a machine shop.
Fig. 51 Fig.52 Dr. Carl Reich was a pioneer in the alternate medical field and he published a book along with Robert R. Barefoot called "The Calcium Factor", copyright 1992. Through Carl’s dedication and hard work with alternate health and energy, Dr. Carl Reich contributions have also helped made the Interference Disc machine and our Permanent Magnet Dynamo possible. I also would like to thank my wife Jan Francoeur for being part of making this research possible, she has spent countless hours to prepare this report and assist in the reconstruction of these machines. The test results and hypothesis I have written are not complete, and the research and development of the described magnetic energy machines is on going, and as such, the potential and performance and true efficiencies of these machines are still yet to be determined. This author knows that the aether is real and free energy systems are possible, and I will continue to work until I have completed the integration of Ed Gray’s radiant energy motors with our larger version dc dynamo machine. When this happens, a new round of testing will begin with our attempts to run the two machines together in closed loop regenerating mode. I hope I explained these energy machines in a way that you all can understand, and more information will be released as progress is made. You may find this information useful with your quest to be energy independent. However, if you profit from any of my ideas I have described in this writing, then in all fairness, please remember to reward the inventor so research and development can continue. This is my gift to humanity. Sincerely Alan L Francoeur Page posted by Sterling D. Allan, August 12, 2003 Last updated August 12, 2003 |
