“Tiny Orbo Replication 2″ circuit – in progess

The following circuit is the result of last nights work. It now works good enough in Spice, but I'm still not happy with it because it uses an optocoupler, ugg! Perhaps a tiny toroid could replace the opto-coupler. The goal of the circuit is to get a rapid pulse through the orbo toroid, and then level that current off. The reason for the rapid pulse, according to my old magnetic research by means of conventional physics, is magnetic viscosity found in the NdFeB magnets. NdFeB magnets have extremely high magnetic viscosity, over 100us for an typical test pulse. So the toroid pulse should be a *lot* faster than 100us. Around 10us to 30us is acceptable.

If you find an improvement for the above circuit, then please contact me. [Edit: see my newer design, Tiny orbo replication 2 circuit in progess 2.] The voltage *across* the toroid should be high when the current is rising, and then suddenly drastically drop in order to level off the current. So there might be 80V initially, and then a sudden change to less than a few volts. The few volts is just enough to maintain the current. That makes a more complex circuit requiring multiple voltage sources, but I found an acceptable alternative. That alternative is to simply short the toroid immediately after the rising current pulse. The short will maintain the current long enough for ultra high rpm's over 10000 rpm. I had my "tiny orbo replication" spinning at nearly 8000 rpm's no problem and the magnets were not even well glued. This time they're well glued and will also have a ring of tape around them to keep them from breaking off and also the reduce air flow. So I'm shooting for 15000 rpm. Who knows what will happen. Maybe the ball bearings will be terribly inefficient at such rpm's.

So the above circuit design is according to my magnetic research, which shows excess energy by means of using conventional physics. I have no idea what Steorn is doing, maybe they're using a DC to DC converter chip to get the higher voltage.

I am not affiliated with Steorn. Orbo is trademarked by Steorn.
