  2. Switched reluctance motor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Switched_reluctance_motor

    However it complicates the electrical design, because a switching system must deliver power to the different windings and limit torque ripple. [1] [2] Sources disagree on whether it is a type of stepper motor. [3] The simplest SRM has the lowest construction cost of any electric motor. Industrial motors may have some cost reduction due to the ...

  3. Newman's energy machine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Newman's_energy_machine

    Newman's Energy Machine was a DC motor which the inventor, Joseph Newman, claimed to produce mechanical power exceeding the electrical power being supplied to it. In 1979, Newman attempted to patent the device, but it was rejected by the United States Patent Office as being a perpetual motion machine . [ 1 ]

    Now, if this motor is fed with current of 2 A and assuming that back-EMF is exactly 2 V, it is rotating at 7200 rpm and the mechanical power is 4 W, and the force on rotor is = N or 0.0053 N. The torque on shaft is 0.0053 N⋅m at 2 A because of the assumed radius of the rotor (exactly 1 m).

  5. Superconducting electric machine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Superconducting_electric...

    Superconducting electric machines typically have the following advantages: Reduced resistive losses but only in the rotor electromagnet. Reduced size and weight per power capacity without considering the refrigeration equipment. There are also the following disadvantages: The cost, size, weight, and complications of the cooling system.

  6. Electric machine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electric_machine

    In electrical engineering, electric machine is a general term for machines using electromagnetic forces, such as electric motors, electric generators, and others. They are electromechanical energy converters: an electric motor converts electricity to mechanical power while an electric generator converts mechanical power to electricity.

  7. ALCO RS-3 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ALCO_RS-3

    The ALCO RS-3 is a 1,600 hp (1.2 MW), B-B diesel-electric locomotive manufactured from May 1950 to August 1956 by American Locomotive Company (ALCO) and its subsidiary Montreal Locomotive Works (MLW).

  8. Mathematics of three-phase electric power - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mathematics_of_three-phase...

    The plotted line represents the variation of instantaneous voltage (or current) with respect to time. This cycle repeats with a frequency that depends on the power system. In electrical engineering, three-phase electric power systems have at least three conductors carrying alternating voltages that are offset in time by one-third of the period ...

  9. Permanent magnet motor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Permanent_magnet_motor

    A permanent magnet motor is a type of electric motor that uses permanent magnets for the field excitation and a wound armature. The permanent magnets can either be stationary or rotating; interior or exterior to the armature for a radial flux machine or layered with the armature for an axial flux topology.
