AI Thread Summary
The discussion centers on the critique of the understanding of magnetic lines of force. One participant emphasizes the importance of foundational research conducted by Faraday, Ampere, and Gauss, which laid the groundwork for modern electromagnetic theory as formulated by Maxwell. They argue that without familiarity with these historical works, one cannot claim to observe phenomena that differ from established theories. Another participant, Fairfield, expresses confidence in their observations, suggesting that they identify inconsistencies within the current understanding, indicating a belief that there may be new insights to explore. The exchange highlights the tension between established scientific theory and personal interpretation of electromagnetic phenomena.

Cuz, I have not read your post in detail, I am guessing. I doubt that you are seeing anything different from what has been observed in the past. Do some basic research. Read carefully the works of Faraday and Ampere, they did this basic research about 200yrs ago, their work was combined with that of Gauss, by Maxwell to form our current Electro Magnetic theory. If you are not familiar with it, then you cannot know if you are seeing something different, that is, not covered by the current theory.

I doubt that you are.

Thanks for the advice Integral, But I do think I see something wrong. Check my last paragraph again. I'm sticking with that.

Thread 'Motional EMF in Faraday disc, co-rotating magnet axial mean flux'

Thread 'Motional EMF in Faraday disc, co-rotating magnet axial mean flux'

So here is the motional EMF formula. Now I understand the standard Faraday paradox that an axis symmetric field source (like a speaker motor ring magnet) has a magnetic field that is frame invariant under rotation around axis of symmetry. The field is static whether you rotate the magnet or not. So far so good. What puzzles me is this , there is a term average magnetic flux or "azimuthal mean" , this term describes the average magnetic field through the area swept by the rotating Faraday...
