Radial Generator II
Radial Generator II
Published 2017-03-08T19:12:31+00:00
This thing is still a Work in Progress
A small radial generator
Designed for my wind turbine
This version has three phases with serpentine winding.
I used 10x10x40mm Magnets in a Halbach array arrangement.
First measurements (after the rectifier) 8 windings (0,8mm wire) on one Phase at 400rpm with a 500mA load: 5V
I had only wire for 8 windings :-) and my wind turbine does not rotate with 400 rpm.
...there are still more tests needed...

Update Parts: „Stator_1x.stl“ and „Deckel_1x.stl“
easier to print but fully compatible with old version

What you need
32x..............Magnets 10x10x40mm (Q-40-10-10-N Supermagnete.de, Supermagnete.ch)
1x................M8 screw or threaded rod
3x................M8 Nut
2x................608 bearing Ø22xØ8x7mm (e.g. inline skates bearings)
4-8x.............M5 screw an Nut
8x................M3x8mm screw / 3x8mm self tapping screw
1.3 meter.....Wire per Winding (I use Ø0,8mm, 20 AWG, from a microwave Transformer)
Print settings
PETG Filament
0.4mm Nozzle, 0.20 Layer, 50mm/s Speed, no infill, no support
I use „CURA 15.04.06“
If you print with simplify3d set the extrusion width manual to 0,4mm.
Assembly instruction
see Pictures
Glue in M5 Nuts. Make sure that the mounting screws are not too long.
You can cut M3 threads or use self-tapping screws for „Abdeckung Magnete 1x.stl“
if you have any suggestions for improvement, questions or need further information, feel free to contact me.
Gerne auch auf Deutsch :-)
