How to combine two coils of output properly.

[kbhale]

I built two of these. So I will be dealing with four coils of output.

Sorry trouble posting the pictures right. Click the URL= for large Pitchers.

The motor has two coils. In the pix on the green / yellow leads are one coil and the other coil is red / black. I put the two blue jumper wires on I guess as parallel on the DC outputs. I plan to run the output on to a blocking diode, to charge controller to fuse, than batteries. Is this right?

The motors are 110 volt 0.8 amp

When I spin the gen by hand I can get 60 volts with the way it's wired in the pix. Separately I can spin up each coil to 40 volts each with the diodes.

Plan to turn them with Savonius / vawt.

Also will be hooking up 135watt solar panel along with the two small generators.

If you want to add the current of coils together then you would wire them through bridge rectifiers in Parallel like this.

If you want to add the voltages of the coils together then you would wire them through bridge rectifiers in Series like this.

Thanks for the diagrams WooferHound.

I got my solar panels up and battery bank connected. I'm using the 2K inverter that Harbor Freight sells also using their Sunforce 12 volt 30 amp charge controller. Used the power today to run pumps, fans in the greenhouse and a jigsaw to cut a barrel for a VAWT.

The bridge rectifier, will it not act as a blocking Diode? (picture 2 first post)

If the power produced by my wind mills is low enough can I run it through my solar charge controller?

Can not use a solar controller for wind.

It is not the power that's the problem.  It is the windmill voltage when the battery is full.

The solar controller uses electronics rated for maybe 30V, which is fine because a solar panel makes maybe 22V.

But the windmill makes 60V.
