摘要:
A back EMF controlled, synchronous, permanent magnet motor capable of extremely high rotation speeds at high efficiency. The motor includes a permanent magnet flux source and excitation coils for producing a rotating magnetic field mounted on an iron free form to substantially eliminate core loss and resulting rotor drag. Back EMF is determined directly from the excitation and controls the excitation to produce a torque angle of substantially 90.degree. between the magnet and coil fluxes. Coil excitation is used at maximum efficiency and hunting is avoided. The permanent magnet provides a high flux density that also allows a low current in the motor coils and thus reduces coil copper losses to further improve efficiency.

An inertial energy storage device including a synchronous rotary electrical machine for bidirectional conversion between mechanical and electrical energy including: a stator having two axially spaced sets of circumferentially spaced teeth; field excitation means disposed on the stator to provide an axially polarized magnetic field; stator windings including a plurality of coils, each of which surrounds at least one tooth from each set; and a rotor having a plurality of circumferentially spaced teeth facing the stator teeth, and a circumferential flywheel mass radially spaced from its rotational axis; and a motor control circuit including sensor means for sensing the position of the rotor relative to the stator; means, responsive to the sensor means, for generating a waveform for driving the machine when it is operating as a motor; a voltage control circuit for controlling the amplitude of the waveform for driving the machine; and a current control circuit for controlling amplitude of the current provided to the machine.
