doubtful. the plasma can't really tell the difference. had to triple the chamber radius on this now that the coils are much bigger. and i didn't scale down the amp turns proportionally to the amount of wire, so the total current and mag fields are stronger than the reference wb-6 sim.rjaypeters wrote:hanelyp's winged octahedron more complete:
It might be interesting to compare this list's performance with the quick and dirty.
they shouldn't need to be very big. fairly small, actually. just big enough so that they can magnetically shield themselves, but not too big such that you'll need a much larger container or have to run a lot of current through them. likewise their separation from the magrid should be sufficient to provide good space and a smooth curvature for recirculation, but not so far that their effective is substantially diminished. other than that they should be right in the middle of the line cusps. disruptors are cross to the line cusps (+), i.e. the plane of the coil is normal to the line of the cusp. on a convertor, it's just like the other magrid coils: the plane is normal to the radial line that goes through its center. all other paramters i imagine would be the same, just its orientation would be different. so just rotated 90 degrees.rjaypeters wrote:Modeling and segmenting priority list:

yes. opposite polarity will attract. it's actually a consequence of lorentz force and induction. not as simple as "north + south pole" one might think of it as the field lines try to minimize their curvature. anyways yeah it's useful mechanically in the sense that those in and out parts are going to attract each other in a ring-like way so mechanically it's quite stable. just have to make sure you can keep them separated, esp. at high field strengths.rjaypeters wrote:re: Octahedron size and winged octahedrons
A question: the two pairs of coils entering at each cardinal point will repel symmetrically. Will opposite polarities attract? If so, is that useful?
Can this arrangement be considered more compact than the winged octahedron?
