Abstract :
One of the trends in integrated high- and medium-power electronics (macroand mesoelectronics) in transportation is towards novel AC-DC/DC-AC, DC-AC/AC-DC and AC-AC macrocommutators for electrically-powered and mechatronically-controlled intelligent main battle tank propulsion and dispulsion spheres, incorporating two automotive gas turbo- autoabsorb- or autodriveable flywheels that are based on the Fijalkowski turbine boosting system with the brushless AC commutatorless or AC-DC/DC-AC macrocommutator magnetoelectric generators/motors, and two autodrive- or autoabsorbable sprocket wheels and two autodrive- or autoabsorbable tensioner wheels as well as fourteen autodrive or autoabsorbable road wheels with the brushless DC-AC/AC-DC or AC-AC macrocommutator magnetoelectric and reluctance sprocket-, tensioner- and road-wheel-hub motors/generators with much higher performance and greater compactness not only at the interconnection stage.
