Abstract :
This paper provides an overview of four distinct applications of advanced permanent magnet machine technologies. It describes the specific application benefits that are accomplished with permanent magnet solutions for Oil&Gas, aviation, automotive, and wind turbine applications. The technology development for these four first-of-a-kind machines is presented, each of which advancing the state of the art in power density, torque density, or speed.
