did you know electricity can generate heat at 100% efficiency?

Here are some: Circle a longer copper tube over the entire circumference. The ends of the pipe need to be at different levels to allow effective flow via thermo syphon effect. Add a low power pump (pushing into the pipe) to improve heating time and temperature. Insulate the pipe You can use copper only for the heating area and a cheaper material pipe for transferring water to and from the bucket Next version idea: maybe mount the magnets on the side of a belt and using an aluminium pan/woke over the free end (with a smaller pulley/drum) where the magnets turn around at high speed. You may add a gear to increase the speed/may be hand operated as well

Instead of a disk how about a cone? with bicycle gear mechanisms. Idk haha just random thoughts

Yes fascinating egg pan that wheel deal is cool too

Have you tried a second row of magnets just inside the other one? You might try adding another half of the copper pipe on the introduction side as well.

re 6:12 packed sand can reduce the buckling by distributing the bending stresses. It might also help, to heat the pipe.

A check valve so the water can only travel in one direction would improve your thermal increase.

I'm sure this isn't new to u, but when a neodymium is dropped down a copper tube, a resistance happens, that causes the magnet to Slowly descend to the bottom of the tube. I'm no science wizard, but it seems to me, that this effect could be negatively impacting u experiment. But, I could be Way off....

Put more magnets further in which should spin faster than the outer circumference, More pipe in stages, insulated where needed. Outer circumference for preheat and progress inwardly for more heat since the inner magnets (doubled up) spins faster.

The problem is the copper. Use a ferromagnetic pipe.

Why don't you also take the heat from the drill press motor and heat the water? 😉You could also generate heat directly from a disk by using friction, as with a drum or disk brake in a car. Of course a well-designed heat pump would be way more efficient.

Describing a heater as 'cool' is so funny!

There must be a safer way in judging the temperature of the pipe than holding it oneself 🤔

if you use Peltier cells you can produce electricity to move a brushless motor ( very low friction ) and have perpetual motion and extra Free energy. ( put the magnets alternate N S N S )

if you use peltier cells you can produce electricity to move a brushless motor ( very low friction ) and have perpetual motion and extra Free energy.

If you ever make a Disk with the Magnets exposed to both sides you could use the N and S on each to double production...

An impeller in a bucket with no place for the water to be pushed is a fairly efficient means of converting motion to friction, thus heat. There isn't much reason to go by way of magnetic flux, to AC electricity, back to magnetic flux like this does.

Yeh Flux Flips Innit Bruv. Hahah thank you for your video I liked it very much. I gotta get me some magnets now.

add a second disk to spin above it & increase the length of the pipe that is close to the magnets.

Dude just made a huge induction coffee maker

I’ve just joined , would an entire circle of copper around the whole wheel be more efficient ?

Fascinating..don’t put strong magnets in different pockets , I did …..all was ok till I bent foward with baggy trousers on 😎😂😂🤡

There is an immense amount of magnetic reluctance in your contraption - making it very highly inefficient. For a start the underside of the magnets is effectively an open circuit (magnetically speaking) and this was the problem with electric motors before about 1860. Have a look at Tesla's Magnetic circuits and learn from his genius.

Brilliant I love how do you thought about running it inside of a vacuum or at least a sealed unit my concern is if you lagged all the pipes and insulated everything the we'll itself withdraw in cold are therefore making the process efficient if it was within a box the whole unit could heat up and the turbine would be running within its own heat as well as heating the water I love it well done mate by the way I'm no scientist I'm a plaster

1. Use ferrous pipes. Iron has more resistivity than copper, therefore the ohmic heat dissipation is higher. 2. Use a circular pipe so as to not waste a significant portion of the circumference. 3. Maybe put pipes on both sides, the magnetic flux looks significant through the thin MDF remaining under the magnets. 4. Try to flatten the pipes

The drill you're using to spin the entire thing defeats the purpose. It probably costs more to run that drill that simply turning on a real heater.

You can find a video about the Superflywheel at me !

If you can put the copper tube closer to the magnets. That will increase the heating effect exponentially. Also if you can make copper tube more flat it will also increase efficiency. Good luck with the project 💪🏼

Dude, you need to clean up that horrible pigsty of a workshop.

Under the magnets and over the magnets = heating x 2? Thinner bore copper? Doubling up the magnets? Two disks, one above the pipe and one below the pipe? Several layers of magnets with pipes in between? Solid blocks of copper with holes drilled through or copper pipes encased in lead for more heat induction?

I would suggest getting better concentricity on your large wheel by mounting it on the rotational spinning system after cutting, then using wood lathe tools to cut the outside diameter into exact roundness with it spinning at a good RPM. This would reduce wobbling and improve balance so there's less wear and risk for breakage over time on the bearings. The insulation on the pipes was also something that came immediately to mind due to thermal dissipation as the water travels through the pipes. An alternative would be to increase the RPM on your induction motor and heat the pipe hotter, but that seems contrary to the point of increasing the diameter of the wheel. An alternative would be to build a second wheel with magnets in opposite configuration (so they don't attract to the other wheel) and putting it with a spacer above the other wheel and therefore the pipe you're trying to heat - so you'd have an induction wheel above and below the pipe to increase the thermal induction rate being imparted into the pipe without having to greatly modify the overall design. That would improve heating speed and maximum temperature without an RPM increase, but would also increase cost and effort to make an entire second wheel. It could also introduce more wobbling or vibration if the roundness and concentricity aren't balanced between both wheel plates and their mounts, but could be offset by cutting them both to be exactly round with the previously mentioned technique or by using weight offsets opposite of the unbalanced section of wheel - a technique used with car and bike wheels with attached small metal weights. Obviously, don't use ferrous metals for balancing weights on a wheel that's got a ton of magnets, and put the counterbalance weights on the outer top and bottom of the wheels to keep them from attracting the other wheel's magnets. lmao A genius idea overall you've got here. I'm definitely going to need to use a similar idea for something in the future. Thank you for the video and idea!

If the only purpose of this device is to generate alternating magnetic fields in order to induce heating in metal, WE ALREADY HAVE THAT!!!! In the much simpler form of ALTERNATING CURRENT, and ANY frequency you like. WHAT IS THE FREAKING POINT??? Am I missing something? Talk about a prime example of re-inventing the wheel!!

Nice project yeah. I agree with faragar about the full-circle element and full insulation. Additionally I suggest adding a water pump and valve to ensure and adjust optimal flow.

Run a copper pipe over the entire wheel

does heat insulation prevent magnetic field power? copper tubes that have water sealed at the three-point state are super conductive, which might help

Unfortunatelly the biger wheel less amounf of degree speed is needed but only because you can put there more magnet surface that will impacts/work on magnetized surface (you want to heat up) you want to work with (heated surface) To increase your powe I woud assume having two wheels with pipe of water in between (you will have lower speed required ) additionally I would use pipe of flat surface as more surface would be closer to magnets and pipe entering from one side and moving round along the curvature of the wheel to exit from other side (hard to get perfectly bent pipe which is not round like pipe and of course for non round shape pipes flow resistance is higher as flow is with greater surface ) a same time plus use of stronger magnet supposedly not round but square would be better of same case?

It's an interesting novelty, but I prefer burning hydrocarbons and releasing CO2, so plants will green the Earth while providing food and beauty.

your only using a 2ft section of pipe to heat. you have a 3ft diam disk so get 3pcs of smaller tube (ice maker tubing) and bend them around the outside of the disc. then place the three inside each other side by side and solder them to form a flatter surface. take the 6 end opening ports and join them into a manifold of 2 ports for a much larger heating area. you could also place a matching one under the disk and join them to the two ports. your induction field would then surround the entire outer ring area. you then could use a smaller disk with two magnets in line. i would use a resin fiberglass board like bullet panel for balance and heat resistance. under your disk i would install another square tube that slides into your horiz tube and mount a motor and belt tensioner for portability. as far as your bucket I would place two tanks side by side with the hot overflowing into the cold cycling tank for less line heat loss. Then set the entire unit into an insulated box with a lid.

I’m thinking that the pipes shouldn’t both enter the bottom of your bucket. Maybe if one entered the side, just below the surface of the water and the other in the bottom of the bucket you would be more likely to achieve a steady flow from convection.

when we were kids a guy who lived near us used to make rings out of coins, take him one with your DOB and you could see the writing inside, IE 1966 Queen Elizabeth one shilling, Florin, threepence, sixpence, etc , he charged half a crown for making them (12-1/2p)

installing the magnets..... what about a piece of metal underneath the wood so you can stick the magnet to that? washers for example.

I bought some neodymium magnets from 1st4magnets a few years back and I ended up with blood blisters and cuts all over my hands because they are so strong I was constantly nipping my fingers, they were so strong many shattered like glass when they flew together, I didn't realise how strong a small magnet (40mm X 5mm) could be, anyone wanting a very strong magnet I recommend 1st4magnets 100%, as for your project, foam pipe lagging and you heat induction pipe should completely surround your magnet wheel, connect all the N & S magnets together with soldered wires, IE all the north face connected and all the south faced magnets to each other and you will see a huge increase in heat of you do that, probably boil it no problem,

Would it work if you had two rows of magnets one with north the other with south ( obviously) also it could fit into a smaller circumference. Another thought is if you make two layers to the wheel the bottom layer could have the correct size hole for the magnet and the top a smaller hole to still expose the magnets but also to keep them in place. Could the wheel also be made of some form of plastic for waterproofing. Cheers

make round pipe over these magnets. so that when it spins it heats up water

Get an aluminium flexible pile and coil it around the magnets, probably both sides of the disc will work. Back side could be pre-heater, as it is further from the magnets. With suuch long water coils you may need a pump- a nice followup project. There are some handdrill powered ones, you just reduce the size of the impeller flaps to slow the speed. Anyways, now, how to reduce inertia, as it is supposed to be wind driven. Cut holes in the disk to make it lighter and balance it. Also make a contraption to slide the coils in and out of the magnets to make it spin up easier. A centrifugal governor like in the early steam engines would do it. Still an interesting YT project, but with so many magnets, you could have done an axial flux generator 😂

So I that's How casinos cheat customers at the roulette table.😮

Make the “heating pipe” the same circle of the size over the magnets.

Wow this is some third world country stuff have you heard of a thorium reactor. Never mind. how about even just you can burn Natural Gas? You know just burn gas and heat water. Instead of burn gas to power a generator, to produce electricity, to turn an electric motor, turn a gear, to induction Heat.(that's how you waste power) There's this thing called gas stoves. Problem solved. One Step solution to Heating. Even better you know there's this thing called wood and it burns.

Encase an evacuated copper tube in a vacuum to retain heat as well.

I wonder what could be done with an evacuated copper tube. Heated floors would be nice.
