The invention concerns a transverse flux electrical machine operating with alternating current, having a first element having an alternate arrangement of excitation cores and of flux return cores and a winding of electrical conductors, the winding of electrical conductors being wound as a toroid, inside all said excitation cores; a second element having an exciter section comprising two toothed magnetic structures, each toothed magnetic structure comprising a number of slots equal in number to the total number of excitation cores and of flux return cores, the corresponding slots of each magnetic structure being toothed by being aligned; a magnetized sub-assembly is inserted inside each indentation so that an alternating arrangement of magnetic north poles and south poles is produced in each of these magnetic toothed structures of said exciter section; an air gap between the first element and the second element; at least one of the first element and of the second element being capable of rotating around a rotation axis that is common to the first element and to the second element.

An apparatus for preserving food products in a pulsed electric field comprises a treatment chamber having an inlet for food products to be treated and an outlet fortreated food products and has an effective area of flow having rounded corners. The treatment chamber further comprises at least one first electrode and at least one second electrode which are disposed in such a way that the field lines of the electric field run parallel to one another, as well as an energy source and a potential controller to control the potential on at least one first electrode and on at least one second electrode in order to generate a pulsed electric field, of such design that the electric field in the effective area of flow is constant.

An arc furnace which includes a shell with a hearth, a roof for the shell, the roof including a plurality of segments which are substantially electrically isolated from each other and from the shell, an electrode and a refractory section on the roof, and wherein the refractory section is at least partly electrically conductive.

Arc furnace protection

In the operation of a dc arc furnace components of the furnace are monitored to detect unwanted arcs. A first low impedance path is continuously established between the components. When an arc is detected a second conductive path of a predetermined impedance is established between the components, in parallel to the first low impedance path, to extinguish the arc. After the arc has been extinguished the second path is open circuited to restore the furnace to normal operation.
