Gilmore style?

Hi Koen

Are what I understand well?
You made varying the excitation voltage of your generator and you measure up to 130 volte a way out?

Thierry

yes Thierry, just put/change voltage/amps on the stator coil

testing and flaring , nothing is more fun…

here i am testing larger steam boosts spraying 20 ml of water in the nozzle port…

remarkable effects on the flame

here playing with air mixture, how does it change the appearence of the flame…
when the pipe is reddish, and more air is mixed, the flame turned towards green color.

i think the green color was from the pipe metal…

Koen,
About your electric tricycle.
After having removed the regulator, connecting the PWM to the brushes of the alternator ?

Yes Thierry, In my case it does not have brushes, it has a fixed stator coil and fixed"rotor" coils, where as the rotor cage turns around the coils.

But it is as described, PWM connected to the field windings (brushes)

If your alternator amps are high enough, you could weld with it :wink:

HI Koen
You’ll make a video of your electric tricycle?
I supose you not control over the engine rpm has explosion.
you control the excitation current with PWM?
I 'd like drive this machine!
Congratulations on your imagination.

testing a new flare torch and electric igniter…

Overpull changes the color, no filter installed with this testing.

Igniter works, simultaneous with the little fan.

Damn, these little fans are strong and cheap…

Hi Koen can you give a closeup of the fan and maybe an add or package of what it looked like before or what it was supposed to be used for? Thanks, David

Its this one i use, minor modification for the couplings i use

They have an 1" size in and outlet, i took out the plastic grid inside to enhance the flow.
