Abstract: In a rotating electrical machine, in the case where a cylindrical component is fixed by press fitting or the like, the opening edge of the cylindrical component is widened toward the end to provide peeps for facilitating the insertion of the cylindrical component. However, the outer shape of a rotor expands due to the peeps, and a gap needs to be provided between the rotor and a stator in consideration of the expanded portion of the outer shape, which causes the degradation of the performance of the rotating electrical machine. In addition, in the case where magnets are fixed only by the tightening force of a magnet cover, the greater the centrifugal force becomes, the larger the clamping margin becomes and similarly the larger the peeps become, and thus the expanded portion also becomes larger. However, if the opening edge is not widened to the end, the absence of the peeps makes it difficult to insert the magnet cover.

Abstract: A method for converter blow end-point control which comprises carrying out waste gas analyses on a continuous or intermittent basis in a final stage of the blow and, based on decarburization rate data (waste gas information) obtained from said waste gas analysis, determining the end-point of the blow where the carbon content of the bath equals a target carbon content. The method is characterized by the use of the decarburization rate equation: ##EQU1## which is a differential equation taking account of the delay time (.tau.) of said waste gas information which is a period of time from the time-point of occurrence of a decarburization reaction in the converter till the time when it is detected as said decarburization rate data, and an equation:b'=g(b)which is a functional equation for increasing the predictability of carbon content of the bath at the end-point of the blow.
