Re: RE: Single shaft motor - Ed Wingate?

(Slightly OT, but I know its of interest to several on this list ....)

One possible way to help determine if magnetic or thermal effects are at
work would be to expose the motor to a large external DC magnetic field. If
magnetic effects are driving the motor, this might have some visible effect
on speed or acceleration rate.

Also, what are the extremes of bearing spacing that have been utilized? A
thermally-driven motor should be insensitive to having the bearings right
next to each other (very short shaft), while a magnetically-driven motor
might have some field cancellation effects with bearings that are very close
together, and run better and better as bearing spacing is increased.

Regards,
Scott Hanson
