How Can Eddy Current Drag Be Minimized in AC Generators?
Hi Jon Tarrant, Very true, so how is this mitigated against in an AC Generator? I know there's a trade off, I'm just trying to minimise this trade off and increase efficiency. There must be a way, maybe introducing perpetual motion, centrifugal or gyroscopic forces. I know the solution is out...- Mr Nobody

How Can Eddy Current Drag Be Minimized in AC Generators?
Hi anorlunda, My goal is to make a self perpetuating and sustaining AC generator. I know this sounds strange but, I have had this nagging urge to build one in my head for quite a while now. I often get sporadic ideas just come to me, usually in the middle of the night. When this happens I...- Mr Nobody

How Can Eddy Current Drag Be Minimized in AC Generators?
Hello everyone, I'm working on a home project to create AC current, using magnets (AC Generator). I understand the principles of how to generate AC current however, I lack the complex knowledge of the physics side. I have searched and watched various Youtube videos etc, but none of them answer...- Mr Nobody
