    Abstract: A magnetic component having a unitary structure, a transverse flux electric machine having the magnetic component, and a method of making the magnetic component are disclosed. The unitary structure of the magnetic component includes a magnetic region and a non-magnetic region. The magnetic region includes a magnetic phase and an electrically insulating phase. The non-magnetic region includes a non-magnetic phase. The magnetic phase includes a metallic material and the non-magnetic phase includes a nitrogenated metallic material formed by a controlled nitrogenation of the metallic material.

    Abstract: A monolithic heater body includes a combustor body and an eductor body. The combustor body has an annulus with an outward annular wall and an inward annular wall. The annulus defines a conditioning conduit between the outward annular wall and the inward annular wall, and a combustion chamber circumferentially surrounded by the inward annular wall. A distal portion of the conditioning conduit fluidly communicates with a distal portion of the combustion chamber. The eductor body defines a plurality of eductive pathway couplets circumferentially spaced about a perimeter of the annulus. Respective ones of the eductive pathway couplets have a motive pathway and an eduction pathway respectively oriented oblique to the annulus and fluidly communicating with the conditioning conduit. Respective ones of the plurality of motive pathways are configured to provide a jet of intake air from a corresponding plurality of intake air pathways to the conditioning conduit.

    Abstract: One embodiment describes a rotary machine system, which includes a stator with a first tooth, a second tooth, a third tooth, and a fourth tooth; a first electromagnet that includes a first electromagnet wire wrapped around the second tooth and the third tooth and that generates a first magnetic field to attract a drive shaft; a first integrated position sensor, which includes a first sensor wire that carries a first current wrapped around the first tooth and the second tooth; a second integrated sensor, which includes a second sensor wire that carries a second current wrapped around the third tooth and the fourth tooth; and a controller that determines current position of the drive shaft based at least on change of inductance of the first sensor wire and the second sensor wire, and that instructs the first electromagnet to adjust magnitude of the first magnetic field based at least in part on the current position.

    Abstract: An assembly includes multiple adjoined rotor sections each having multiple poles and multiple void rows therethrough that are radially distributed in each of the poles. The rotor sections are skewed in a circumferential direction. The assembly also has multiple conductive rings that substantially surround one of the void rows. A method of assembly and electric machines and vehicles using the assembly are also disclosed. Aspects reduce torque ripple in electric machines and allow for encoderless/sensorless operation in an electric machine using the rotor assembly. The present invention has been described in terms of specific embodiment(s), and it is recognized that equivalents, alternatives, and modifications, aside from those expressly stated, are possible and within the scope of the appending claims.

    Abstract: A stator core is provided that can define a plurality of core slots in a surface thereof. The core slots can extend between a first and a second end portion of the stator core. A winding can be housed in the core slots. The winding can define a channel through at least a portion thereof. A cooling system can be operably coupled with the channel and can be configured to move a cooling fluid through the channel. A turbulator can be positioned within the channel. The turbulator can be within a flowpath of the cooling fluid and can be integrally formed with the winding.
