Is a Coreless Electrical Generator the Future of Renewable Energy?

[LittleBrother]

Is a "coreless" electrical generator anything new?
I'm a self-taught computer programmer who came up with an idea for a coreless electrical generator. I didn't even know how a motor or generator worked at the time, so I did a lot of research.
Just for fun, I built a prototype which resembles the images below and has a 14-inch 'hole' and an 18-inch diameter between the coils, and about a 21-inch diameter overall. One could be built much larger with the 'hole' diameter increasing in size but the coils staying 'small'. (I imagine one could even be built the size of a Ferris Wheel.)
I just don't have time (or money) to mess with it anymore. So, I was wondering if anyone here has an interest in it (how it works), or could tell me if something like this has any value, or whatever.

While I'm not familiar with the subject, your illustration looks reminiscent of those 'inside-out' motors that you sometimes find in clocks or other low-torque applications.

Thank you for sharing your idea and prototype of a coreless electrical generator. While I cannot speak to the specific design of your prototype without further information, I can say that the concept of a coreless electrical generator is not entirely new. There have been previous attempts and designs for coreless generators, and they have been used in various applications such as wind turbines and electric vehicles.

One of the main advantages of a coreless generator is that it eliminates the need for a bulky iron core, which can reduce weight and increase efficiency. However, there are also some challenges and limitations with this type of design, such as the need for more precise and complex winding techniques and potential for increased cost.

It is always exciting to see individuals exploring and experimenting with new ideas and concepts, and I encourage you to continue your research and development on this project. Who knows, your coreless generator could potentially have some valuable applications in the future. Thank you for sharing your idea with us.
