Permanent Magnet Generator Rotor Containment Study

Abstract

The design, development and testing of an advanced containment structure for high speed permanent magnet machines is presented. The primary intent of the program was to achieve a reduction in system weight, volume and cost through the use of an improved containment design. A secondary objective was to minimize rotor pole face losses and, thus improve generator efficiency.
