Coil winding shapes

[Don]

I have been watching you do many coil shapes and have a question. What result would you get if you wound a coil so that is straight up and down in the area where the magnet crossed the coil. Not like a circular bobbin. Like over the form of a plastic ruler about an inch wide. If mounted where the magnet would cross it perfectly at 90 degrees it should allow the lines of force to cut the coil perpendicular and not on a round surface. The idea would be to get more flux lines across the coil at the best angle to make more power.

Build one!

I have no way to test it when I do build it. I am interested in building the Muller motor myself but I dont have the equipment to test the coils and stuff for resonant freqs like you do. So as to my question, what do you think? Would you get more or less output than a reqular round coil?

Pretty sure you'd get cancellation. In a normal coil the magnetic flux cuts in one direction, then the other. If they're parallel they cut both at the same time.
