well... My gear ratio will generally provide for good rpm.
I have a 52t in the front, and a 17t in the rear so... with a low end(slow) cadence of 60 rpm on the 52t, the rear wheel will rotate at about 120-200rpm.
each subsequent rotation will provide 4 alternations in flux... (because of the 4 pairs right?)
so were talking something like 400-800 flux changes per minuit when going slow.
- - THIS IS A CONSTANT FIXED GEARED BICYCLE: meaning there is no coasting. Therefore the generator will always be active aside from stopping. Cool with me.
-what would happen to power-output if the rotor reversed direction??? (as on a fixed gear bicycle, your rear brake is your ability to backpedal)
this doesn't seem like a pathetically inefficient plan.... of course I am comparing to the wind designs on here... so the application is different. still...
would this be a better magnet geometry for flux return?
