Abstract: An electrical machine including a stator. The stator includes slots to house conductors, the conductors arranged in the slots to provide a winding arrangement where: turns of a first conductor winding are not adjacent to each other, turns of a second conductor winding are not adjacent to each other, and the turns of the first conductor winding and the turns of the second conductor winding do not share a common neutral point and are not connected to each other in series or parallel.

Abstract: In some aspects, a magnetic gear system includes a flux focusing magnet arrangement having a low-pole count rotor, a pair of modulator rotors disposed on either side of the low-pole count rotor, and a pair of high-pole count outer rotors disposed outside of the pair of modulator rotors. In some aspects, a magnetic gear system includes a motor with a stator and a pair of low-pole count rotors disposed on either side of the stator. The magnetic gear system further includes a pair of modulator rotors disposed on either side of the motor, and a pair of high-pole outer rotors disposed on opposite sides of the pair of modulator rotors.

Abstract: A heatsink for an electric motor, the heatsink comprising a heat spreader configured to be placed in proximity to a winding of the electric motor, a channel formed through the heat spreader and comprising a coolant inlet and a coolant outlet, and a surface feature formed into a back face of the heat spreader that faces the winding and is configured to reduce eddy currents induced in the heatsink.

Abstract: An electric machine includes a stator having a plurality of stator teeth. Each stator tooth of the plurality of stator teeth includes a winding disposed there around. Each stator tooth of the plurality of stator teeth is shaped to receive a plurality of microchannels. The microchannels contain a circulating heat-transfer fluid; Each stator tooth of the plurality of stator teeth is thermally exposed to the heat-transfer fluid via the plurality of microchannels so as to effectuate heat removal from each stator tooth of the plurality of stator teeth.

Abstract: An electric machine includes a stator having a stator winding disposed thereon. A rotor is electromagnetically exposed to the stator. A field winding and an induction winding are disposed on the rotor. A rectifier is electrically coupled to the induction winding and the field winding. Upon application of a voltage to the stator winding, the stator winding produces a first rotating magnetic field and a second rotating magnetic field that has a different spatial frequency than the first rotating magnetic field. The first rotating magnetic field interacts asynchronously with the induction winding to produce an alternating current in the induction winding. The rectifier changes the alternating current to a direct current that is supplied to the field winding. The field winding interacts synchronously with the second rotating magnetic field.
