  • Publication number: 20230361635
    Abstract: A configuration of a plurality of elongate, axially-magnetized curvilinear permanent magnets having high length to cross-section ratio, produced, for example, by the PM-Wire manufacturing process, that produce an electric machine permanent magnet rotor structure with a very low intrinsic demagnetizing field, allowing for operation at high temperature, at high RPM, or enabling use of permanent magnets comprising low coercivity magnetic materials. Exemplary embodiments of two-pole, four-pole, six-pole and eight-pole rotor permanent magnet configurations for single and dual rotor applications. The novel configuration of axially-magnetized curvilinear permanent magnets reduces demagnetization at high temperature, increases electric machine power density, reduces weight by eliminating the need for back iron, increases motor reliability, reduces manufacturing costs, and enables higher electric motor torque and electric generators.

  • Patent number: 11693842
    Abstract: A compact data structure generation engine can be used to generate a compact data structure that represents performance data for high-scale networks. The compact data structure representing the performance data can be used to monitor the operation performed on or by a computer system to identify potentially anomalous conditions. In response, a corrective action can be taken to address the issue. This can be useful, for example, in improving the efficiency, effectiveness, and reliability of the computer system during operation.

  • Publication number: 20230062147
    Abstract: A method for continuous manufacture of permanent magnets. A material sheet is formed into an open tube, having a lengthwise opening. Magnetic powder may be poured into the lengthwise opening on a continuous basis. The tube opening is then formed closed and sealed. The magnetic powder is magnetically pre-aligned by subjecting it to a first magnetic field. The tube containing the powder may be compressed into a desired shape, forming an elongated permanent magnet. After compression, the elongated magnet is magnetized by a second magnetic field in two-step process, wherein the elongated permanent magnet is subjected to a magnetic field from first magnetizing coil that is pulsed with a first electric current in a first direction, followed by a second magnetizing coil being pulsed with a second magnetizing electric current in a second direction. The elongated magnet may be formed into any arbitrary shape, such as a ring or coil.

  • Patent number: 11238069
    Abstract: A method for processing a data stream to identify a structure of the data stream includes receiving the data stream a sequence of characters, retrieving a set of rules for encoding characters into at least one token, and parsing the data stream. Parsing includes generating a plurality of tokens according to the set of rules. Each token represents a corresponding portion of the sequence of characters. Parsing includes forming a sequence of tokens from the plurality of tokens and assigning at least one attribute value describing the corresponding portion of the sequence of characters of the corresponding token to which the attribute value is assigned. The sequence of tokens are assigned to a cluster by determining that the sequence of tokens matches a pattern by which the cluster is characterized. The sequence of tokens is merged with the cluster. A representation of the cluster is output.

  • Publication number: 20190044465
    Abstract: The polyphase rotary electric machine wherein the invention is implemented comprises phase short-circuit means (15, 18) included in a control system (10). The machine is fitted in a motor vehicle, operates as a generator and is connected to an on-board electric network (2). The phase short-circuit means short-circuit at least one phase winding when a DC voltage measurement (B+) of the network, regulated by a regulator device, exceeds a predetermined threshold value and a phase current 15 in the phase winding is cancelled out and changes direction. According to the invention, the control system limits an overvoltage on the network due to an event other than load shedding.

  • Patent number: 9354622
    Abstract: The method of controlling a polyphase rotating electric machine, the machine operating as a generator and being linked to an electrical network (1), is of the type of those consisting in short-circuiting at least one phase winding in the event of load shedding. A short-circuit command (SAND) is generated for the phase winding when a first measurement voltage V of a voltage B+ of the network exceeds a first predetermined threshold value V1 and when a phase current (I?) in the phase winding vanishes and changes direction. The first measurement voltage V may be obtained by filtering the voltage B+ of the network with a predetermined time constant TF.
