The resulting rotor has a non-regular slot pitch across the q-axis and substantially regular slot pitch otherwise. Synchronous reluctance machines that employ rotor discs and rotor assemblies in accordance with the present invention may exhibit low torque ripple without sacrificing high torque values.

Abstract: An electromagnetic engine is disclosed which utilizes a plurality of rotors mounted on a common drive shaft. There are permanent magnets mounted on and near the periphery of the rotors. Electromagnets are mounted external to the rotors but adjacent to the periphery of the rotors. A timing means is provided with each rotor to sense the position of the rotor and energize the electromagnets to a first magnetic polarity when the permanent magnets are a predetermined angular distance from an electromagnet. The energized electromagnets attract the permanent magnets and create rotation of the rotors and drive shaft. When a permanent magnet comes into alignment with an electromagnet the electromagnet is de-energized from its first magnetic polarity and is re-energized to the opposite magnetic polarity. This neutralizes the effects of residual magnetism and repels the permanent magnets to also create rotation of the rotors and drive shaft.

Abstract: In a ring body of a stator, permanent magnets are arranged in alternate inter-pole magnetic path portions located between an even number of stator poles so that magnetic fields pointing in the circumferential direction of the ring body are generated. Coils are wound around alternate inter-pole magnetic path portions where permanent magnets are not provided so that magnetic fields that oppose the magnetic fields generated by the permanent magnets are generated. When electric power is not supplied to the coils, a ring-shaped magnetic circuit is formed by the permanent magnets, and therefore, magnetic flux does not leak to a rotor. When electric power is supplied to the coils, the magnetic flux of the magnetic fields of the permanent magnets and that of the coils combine with each other and flow from the stator poles to rotor poles of the rotor, whereby strong attraction force is obtained.

Abstract: A heat-pipe electric power generating device including a fan disposed between an evaporating end and a condensing end of a heat-pipe is provided. A magnetic substance is disposed on the fan to form a magnetic field. A stator coil of a generator is disposed at the outer of the heat-pipe, which is corresponding to the position of the fan. An induced current is generated by the stator coil of the generator when the magnetic substance spins. Since the heat-pipe is made of copper, and the magnetic field is not shielded by copper, a current is induced when a relative motion between the magnetic substance on the fan and the stator coil of the generator at the outer of the heat-pipe is generated. Further, the heat-pipe electric power generating device can be applied on a hydrogen/oxygen gas generating apparatus and an internal combustion engine system of a motor vehicle.

Thermal mapping of the magnetic mass provides for advanced cooling techniques that are used to ensure long in-service life in the most extreme of industrial applications. The electric motor inherently provides low vibration thereby greatly reducing noise; low turn to turn voltage potentials thereby eliminating costly phase to phase shorting potential; efficient motor operation through the reduction in switching and copper losses in both the machine and its control system.

Abstract: Brushless Multiphase Self-Commutation Control (or BMSCC), also known as Real Time Emulation Control (or RTLC), is a contact-less means for powering any electric apparatus with “conditioned” or “re-fabricated” multiphase electrical excitation that is synchronized to the movement of the electric apparatus. BMSCC inherently phase-locks the frequency of excitation to any speed or position of the electric apparatus being controlled by a natural electromagnetic processing means and as a result, the BMSCC is an Electromagnetic Self-Commutator. BMSCC should never be confused with any derivative of Field Oriented Control, which is the other means of conditioning speed-synchronized electrical excitation by iteratively performing “speed-variant-to-speed-invariant” transformations and frequency synthesis by the unnatural processing means of an electronic computer. The control flexibility of BMSCC realizes additional synergistic or complementary electric apparatus inventions as shown in the illustration.
