In ref to "using motor as generator..." Jan 5th:
We had placed a small 15V .5A incandescent bulb in front of the main resistive load, just for a kind of visual cue.
Noticed when testing circuit with a stable 15V DC power source there was a differnence in bulb luminosity. Took almost 24V to...
Have been testing rotor designs on a small prototype wind rig in a small wind tunnel using a 24V DC PM motor loaded with a variable resistive load as a generator. Results we have been getting seem out of whack with load characteristics.
Load is set at 12V 10A which given our small rotor size...
