  • Part 4 of the LG Washing Machine motor project!
    WE have the generator rewired and assembled and perform a brief load test. The thing is definitely overpowering my drills! I expect to see some pretty decent output from this thing once it's in the air! I'm still working on the phase timing so that I can possibly run both stators parallel through one rectifier but I may have to give up on that idea...

      Hopefully nothing too crazy, but maybe. We're going to start with 7 or 8 feet and see what happens.

    But.. can i know? what kind or type of 3 phase bridge you use for the motor?

    Please tell me how you managed to mount two together like that.

      I welded the rotors to hubs with 1-inch bores and bolted them together. It took a LOT of time and trial to get the rotors aligned with their own stators to keep them from braking one another. the other videos in that playlist show how it's assembled.

      @@ToysforWatts thanks for the tip bro. Could you maybe just sell your and make another. I just got a welder but I'm new to welding so. You know the alignment has to be really good for reasons you've stated already.

    What RPM was you drill running at? At 750RPM a Samsung DC93-00309A will produce over 300 Watts at ~50VDC. It takes about 1 HP to get to that RPM and load. I haven't run my larger Samsungs as alternators lately as I never split them down as far as the smaller ones. That will change when the two new ones get here. :-) With the 36 pole unit split to 3 phases of 2 parallel, 6 coils in series, it was producing over 150 Volts last time I did test one.

      Somewhere around 275~400rpm. At the time I made this video I wasn't able to do much more than guess and compare to to what I see when filming at high speed to compare to framerate. These stators are reconfigured to run at a lower voltage/higher amperage...I want to be able to either hit a 48v or 24v bank. This is a project I hope to coming back to very soon.

      @@ToysforWatts I just checked mine at 375 RPM. It was producing 141 Watts. It varies a lot depending on the state of the batteries at the time. Right now they are at 28 Volts so it isn't going to cram much Wattage into them. With the big motor driving the small one, it is VFD Hz X 2.5 to get the RPM. With the small one wired the way it is, it is Hz x 5 to get the RPM. The big one sings at 2000 RPM which is 2.5 times what the little motor was factory rated at and 600 RPM over what the big one was rated at. When my Copper wired ones get here, I'll test one in the unit as either 2C X 6 X 3 Phases or 3C X 4 X 3 Phases. I expect that I'll have to throttle back the small motor to 1500 RPM ( 300 Hz input ) as I will likely come near the max input Wattage of the charge controller ( 720 on 24VDC system).

    How did you connect the wires without soldering?

    • @ToysforWatts
      @ToysforWatts  3 роки тому +1

      Really tight twist and shrinkwrap to secure and protect the connection.

    are those wire made of cooper or aluminum?

      Sorry for the late reply! They are aluminum unfortunately. The copper washer motors are a bit rarer.

    Your video is boring with all the nonsense talk. Just get to it the point and stop trying to make a 20 minute video out of a 8 minute video.
