AI Thread Summary
Tesla's engine demonstrated in the video utilizes electromagnetic forces to achieve magnetic levitation, allowing a piece of metal to float in the air. This phenomenon is often confused with anti-gravity, but it is fundamentally based on magnetic levitation principles. The discussion highlights the need for clarity on the engine's architecture and Tesla's original notes regarding its construction. For further understanding, resources on magnetic levitation trains and linear induction motors are recommended. Overall, the technology is rooted in established electromagnetic principles rather than any form of anti-gravity.

Hello,

Here on this movie:
http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=2256433507046558974&q=tesla&pl=true

at 19:35

There is shown Tesla's engine, which balances EM forces, that are able to raise a piece of metal into the air which then keeps on staying there.
If anybody is familiar with this, can you provide a name of this for me, architecture of this engine and if possible, some Tesla's notes on the construction of this? And else, if you don't possesses any known websites about the description, can you tell me how it actually works on a deeper level?

Thanks

It's just magnetic levitation, nothing to do with anti-gravity. Google for "magnetic levitation train" and "linear induction motor".
 
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...
