Generators, my bad. My goal is for it to alternate its current only twice per cycle. Ex: 1st half current goes clockwise. 2nd half goes counterclockwise

Technically it is a motor due to how it functions, but It is not intended to be a motor. My goal is to simply have electricity to flow while the armature is spinning on the half side

I dont want it to switch too rapidly

can I make the N part of the coil cover the entire half of the armature and the S on the other half?

Im trying to make an electricity pulse

not track the magnet, the magnet rotates. It will act like a motor. I just wanna know what is the best way to put the coils around half of the armature and not the whole thing like a motor.

How do I make a coil or a series of coil constantly move electricity as the magnet passes it in half of a circle/armature. Do I simply make an oval shaped coil that covers the area I needed cover, or do I make a series of coil? Think of it like a motor but instead, the coils are only on half of the armature.

Sorry for late reply. This topic is of my interest because I recently found out about the paint called Starlite which reflects most of the heat while keeping the other side warm to the touch (barely cooking an egg). Videos have shown how to make such a thing using glue and baking materials like baking soda. ive noticed one similar trait on both materials altho different in looks is that it develops a char or a burn which will be the one to protect the other side. I don't intend to discover right now if it could last for years, im trying to know if it can be done or even be done in a much simpler way like extracting the char itself and what easier materials can be used to make or mass produce such a thing.

What im asking is "what plastic or polymer, when burned (exposed to extreme heat), makes that char or ash which will then be resistant to incredibly high temps" or any polymer with immense heat resistance. Edit: Yes, an intumescent paint

- Im talking about thousands of degress Celsius, lets just say "withstand 1000 deg C" - If i understand what you mean by carbon, then lets say, when you burn something using a blow torch, youd see black stuff (carbon). - any plastic that can simply be painted as a thin layer but creates a carbon shield when it gets exposed to burning heat.

What polymer or plastics have very high amount of carbon or atleast carbonizing* when exposed to extreme heat? additional question: is carbon heat resistant? (i know there is more to heat and materials being resistant but for the sake of simplicity, lets leave it at "resistant")

oh I see, thanks, so it means that using a spark gap would be very inefficient for the generator and for the device using that power from it due to the load being very low which causes very little current after the gap.

I see, If i understood correctly, the back emf is caused to balance emf which means one cannot exist without the other. and the current depends on the load, which i think means that if there is no load, there is no current which leads to the more load there is, the more current it draws out from the generator and since there is too much load, it results to more emf which then also results to more back emf. Is my understanding correct?

I do understand how sync motors work and transformers but thats not my point. Im asking if using a spark gap will make the current independent from the generator which, on the top of my head is, the spark gap is only the load that induces back emf. An engineer told me that even if you put a generator in space, it will stop if you add a load coz of back emf. Its not perfectly accurate but you get the point. Now, please answer this question. Can a spark gap be used to isolate a current from the generator after it jumps the gap which makes the load constant no matter how much the load is? I dont know how back emf is required so please tell me why. What do you mean by "would not work correctly"?

I know that EMF cannot be eliminated thats why I said "Well not really eliminate but to keep the back emf constant no matter the load?" I was thinking of a much simpler way of doing so. Surge arrestors are too much of a hassle to operate or atleast, its more expensive that a rotary spark gap.

yes. If what I think is what you mean, then yea. This is a good idea (if it works) because overloaded generators would basically not happen as the load back emf stays constant (which is the spark gap being the only real load). One way I can think of is using a step up coil then a rotary spark gap to do so. Obviously, the output will be AC. If my idea works, then power plants wont have to worry about the generators burning or breaking and a black out due to overload, but instead, devices using the electricity will only shut down due to not enough power and not cause further damage (further damage, by which I mean blackouts).

can back emf be eliminated by using a spark gap to make the electricity independent after it jumps the gap? Well not really eliminate but to keep the back emf constant no matter the load?

lol sorry bout that

Im just wondering how, since the most powerful projectile there is, is available for free whenever there is a storm and yet we cant use it against our enemies (the ussr perhaps lol)

lol or swing a metal rod while hugging an enemy when its stormy. No seriously

yea, thats why its a good idea to weaponize it XD, but how

lol

Is it possible to direct lightning to something? Maybe bombarding an area with a line of opposite charged electrons then maybe lightning (or high voltage e-) can be directed to something. In other words, using e- as a projectile or a weapon or something... you get the idea.

yea, i see
