Abstract: A generator is described that includes a modified elongated Halbach array of magnets and a second array of magnets that interact to provide a flux field, which in turn interacts with a coil to generate an electrical current. The modified Halbach array includes two sets of magnets that are interspersed. In a first set of magnets the individual magnetic units are arranged in groupings of at least two magnets that are adjacent to one another and have the same magnetic orientation. In the second set of magnets utilizes either individual magnetic units or small groupings of individual magnetic units (relative to the first set of magnets) that are arranged in a different magnetic orientation than the first set, but identical to one another. A controller modifies electrical communication between different coils and/or controls inverters associated with the coils in order to control and stabilize electrical output from the generator.
