Homo-polar DC electric generator with positive electromagnetic and positive electro-mechanical feedback

A homopolar DC electric generator comprising:

• (a) A shaft mounted on a bearing assembly wherein said shaft is free to spin about an axis running through its length, and said shaft having a first end and a second end, and
• (b) a permanent magnet mounted on said shaft wherein said shaft and said magnet form a composite rigid body which is a shaft-magnet assembly, and
• (c) said permanent magnet having a north pole and a south pole, and
• (d) a conductive path comprising a conducting wire or conducting winding or conducting coil wherein said conducting path surrounds said permanent magnet and the axis of said shaft at least once, and said path traces out an area A
• (e) a first magnetic field B1 being the magnetic field due to said permanent magnet which is exterior to the physical boundary of said permanent magnet and a portion of said first magnetic field being perpendicular to a portion of said conducting path, and means for spinning said shaft-magnet system so that it has an angular frequency about the axis of said shaft and said shaft-magnet system has rotational mechanical kinetic energy, and
• (f) as said shaft-magnet system is spinning the magnetic flux through the area A due to said first magnetic field B1 has a derivative with respect to time which is equal to zero, and
• (g) whereupon as said shaft-magnet system is spinning said first magnetic field exerts a Lorentz Force on electrons within said conducting path which causes electrons to move within said conducting path with the same sense of circulation as said spinning shaft for instance if one looks along said shaft from the first end of said shaft towards the second end of said shaft and sees said shaft is spinning counterclockwise said Lorentz Force causes said electrons to move counterclockwise through and along said conducting path, and if one looks along said shaft from the first end of said shaft towards the second end of said shaft and sees said shaft is spinning clockwise said Lorentz Force causes said electrons to move clockwise through and along said conducting path, and said Lorentz Force that causes the motion of said electrons in said conducting path being a result effective Lorentz Force operating in said invention and therefore is identified as a first Lorentz Force, and
• (h) said motion of said electrons in said conducting loop creating a second magnetic field B2 being parallel to the axis of said shaft, and
• (i) said motion of said electrons being electrical energy and said rotational mechanical kinetic energy being converted into electrical energy, and
• (j) as the rotational angular frequency of said spinning shaft-magnet system begins to decrease due to friction, the second magnetic field B2 begins to decrease with time, and the magnetic flux through said area A1 due to said second magnetic field B2 begins to decrease with time, and Faraday's Law produces an electric field E that circulates around said spinning shaft system with a circulation sense opposite to that of said spinning shaft-magnet system wherein if said spinning shaft system is seen to be spinning counterclockwise said circulating electric field will have a circulation direction which is clockwise and if said spinning shaft system is seen to be spinning clockwise said circulating electric field will have a circulation direction which is counterclockwise, and said circulating electric field exerts a force on said electrons in said conducting path in a direction they are already moving and this is a manifestation of positive electromagnetic feedback in a Homopolar DC electric generator, and
• (k) wherein said south pole of said permanent magnet faces said first end of said shaft, and when viewed from the first end of said shaft towards the second end of said shaft, said shaft-magnet system is spinning counterclockwise, and a third magnetic field exists B3 being the magnetic field within the physical boundary of said permanent magnet and pointing in a direction from said south pole towards said north pole within the physical boundary of said permanent magnet and a portion of said third magnetic field B3 being parallel to the axis of said shaft and said component of B3 parallel to the axis of said shaft pointing in a direction from the first end of said shaft towards the second end of said shaft, and the component of B3 which is pointing in a direction from the first end of said shaft towards the second end of said shaft is pointing in the same direction as said second magnetic field B2 which is caused by the circulation of said electrons through said conducting path, and said conducting path is made of a material which is an electrical conductor where the charge carrier is the electron, and said shaft is made of a material which is not an electrical conductor, and said permanent magnet is made of a material which is an electrical conductor, and said permanent magnet is made of a material which is an electrical conductor wherein the charge carrier is the electron, and said permanent magnet and said conducting path are electrically isolated from one another so that no electrons can flow therebetween, and as said shaft is spinning with its counterclockwise sense as seen when looking from the first end of said shaft towards the second end of said shaft, electrons within the physical body of said permanent magnet experience a Lorentz Force from both B2 and the component of B3 which parallel to the axis of said shaft, and said Lorentz Force on said electrons within the physical body of said permanent magnet being a result effective Lorentz force operating in said invention and therefore is identified as a second Lorentz Force so as to distinguish it from said First Lorentz Force, and said second Lorentz Force which acts on said electrons within the physical boundary of said permanent magnet pushes said electrons away from the axis of said shaft causing a population of negatively charged electrons to assemble near the outer surface of said permanent magnet leaving the volumetric region near the axis of said shaft within the physical body of said permanent magnet positively charged, and wherein as the rotational angular frequency of said spinning shaft-magnet system begins to decrease due to friction, said second magnetic field B2 begins to decrease with time, and the magnetic flux through said area A1 due to said second magnetic field B2 begins to decrease with time, and Faraday's Law produces an electric field E that circulates around said spinning shaft system with a circulation sense which is clockwise which is the opposite sense with respect to said counterclockwise spinning shaft-magnet system when viewed from the first end of said shaft towards the second end of said shaft, and said circulating electric field exerts a force on said population of negatively charged electrons assembled near the outer surface of said permanent magnet, and said force on said population of negatively charged electrons assembled near the outer surface of said permanent magnet results in a mechanical torque on said spinning shaft-magnet system which serves to keep it spinning in the direction it is already spinning therefore this result is a DC homopolar electric generator with positive electromechanical feedback.
