  • Multi-purpose electrical coil as a magnetic flux generator, heater or degauss coil
    Patent number: 9114891
    Abstract: A method and system of using a common set of coils to provide at least two of magnetic flux, heat and degaussing in a mobile platform are provided. In accordance with one embodiment, the method involves oscillation of current in the coils at a frequency higher than a defined pointing requirement to provide heat. In accordance with another aspect, the coil functions as a degausser by energizing the coil with an oscillating current that decreases in amplitude over time.
