Is that called "the core", anyway?
I got one ac motor in parts, and I would like to do something with it.
The stator has 36 slots with wire, and it's connected too complex for me to make some modifications with existing wire, if it is even possible.
I would like to rewind the stator, and I know some basics. I coil of one phase uses two slots, and that means that I can get 6 coils of each phase in three phase system. The slots are not too wide, some 8x20 mm, and I am wondering what wire gauge to use?
Also, I need to modify the rotor on the lathe, so I can put magnets on t. I got some neos ( 2"x1"x.5"), and I can put 8 magnets around the rotor. I'll cut 13 mm deep around, and then use some epoxy and maybe some aluminium sheet around to fix the mags to the rotor.
Can anyone imagine what would I expect to see from the results? How much power can I get from that kind of alt?
Also, how to connect the coils to get the best results???
