Abstract
A high speed rotating electromagnetic motor/generator includes a rotor having a core of magnetic material, a layer of permanent magnet, a retainer ring and side walls of non-magnetic material. A stator is provided by magnetic steel laminations and winding slots. A case includes a cylindrical inner casing, a cylindrical outer casing and end caps which carry the machine bearings. The permanent magnets within the rotating part may be made of neodymium-boron-iron and produce a high flux density pole rotor. The motor/generator can be operated as a brushless direct current or synchronous alternating current machine. Efficient means of cooling is provided by helical channels, which carry a liquid coolant, and are formed in the casing.
