That might explain what they are actually planning. The transverse field at the end of the coils must have been left out of the drawing by accident.

He needs to rotate the coils 90 degrees as you point out.

At 53:13, he is showing a slide with an axial B field and presumably with the plasma split and expanding along the axis. The force on the charges will be normal to the B field and it will cause the charges to spiral around the axis. What he really wants is a B field that is going along the axis he wants his charges to curve, so he wants a B field that would be across his apparatus. What he is showing wouldn't work as a DC generator. Did I get this wrong?
