This is an HHO generator combined with a Homopolar motor to see if the magnetism combined with the motion through a liquid will wick away gas bubbles. There's a 3" neodymium ring mag inside a 6" neodymium ring; the nickel plating on the magnets serves as the anode/cathode. There's a saltwater solution contained between the magnets. The test power source was a 12V/10A NiMH battery.Homopolar Motor - Teslas Unipolar Dynamo (Patent No. 406,968)Nates Garage2021-05-14 | This is a working model of N. Tesla's 1889 Dynamo Electric Machine (Patent No. 406,968), with a few small modifications.
- The conductive belt material connecting the magnets together is "Faraday Tape", it's a very flexible conductive material. I stuck two strips together using the sticky side, so the outside is just a flexible belt-like material.
Notice that the bottom copper axle is not connected in the middle, only the top axle is a full shaft that connects two magnets together.
The colored acrylic discs indicate the magnetic pole direction. The two magnets with blue on the interior have South poles facing inward; the red indicates North poles facing inward. The black ABS plastic discs on the exterior prevent the belt from falling off.
The framing is made of aluminum channeling but it is important to electrically insulate each rotating magnet from the conductive frame, you can see thin strips of plastic between the main aluminum supports, in both the x/y directions. The only conductive connections touching the magnets should be the copper rods and the conductive tape/belt.
