METHODOLOGY Materials The materials for making the aero-magnetic motor are (a) Twenty pieces ferrite ring magnets, (b) chipboard, (c) Fan blade, (d) rectangular mirror, (e) Two sixteen inches aluminium rods, (f) a twenty-one inches aluminium rod, (g) cardboard box, (h) rectangular white board, (i) masking tape, and (j) black spray paint. For the experiment conducted the researcher used twenty pieces of ferrite ring magnets, pitcher, and two fan blades. One fan blade measures 19 centimetres and the other measures fifteen centimetres. Procedures A. Construction of the Device In making the device the first step was to make the rotor. The aluminium rod was used with a length of twenty-one (21) feet. The masking tapes covered …show more content…

The first experiment was to determine the significant difference between the lengths of the gap from the rotor with the specified number of magnets. The experiment utilized eight (8) magnets. In this experiment, four different setups were prepared by the researcher. The first setup used two magnets in the rotor. One magnet was placed near the fan blade and the other magnet was placed on the other end of the rod. And after the magnets were secured the rotor was placed atop the stator. The length of the gap between the rotor and the stator was measured using a ruler. The second setup used two magnets set on each side of the rod and it was positioned above the stator then the gap was measured. In the third setup there were three magnets on each side and the same process was done as with the first and second setups. The same procedure was also done in the fourth setup with four magnets on each side of the rod. The result of the experiment was collected and written in a paper. The data was then interpreted and the significant results were …show more content…

The functionality of the device would be how the rotor rotated with the use of different sizes of fan blade. Two fan blades with different size were used for the experiment. For the first setup a small fan blade nine (9) centimetres in length was attached at the end of the aluminium rod. The rod had two magnets attached through. Then the rotor was put above the stator and was spun to see the result. The second setup used a bigger fan blade measuring fifteen (15) centimetres then same procedure was done to test the functionality of the
