HIGH CURRENT DENSITY ELECTRIC MACHINE

An electric machine includes a stator having a stator bore and a stator winding. The stator winding is arranged to one of receive an electrical current and produce an electrical current having a power between 1 MW and 50 MW. The stator has a stator current density of greater than 5 A/mm2. A rotor is...

Zusammenfassung:	An electric machine includes a stator having a stator bore and a stator winding. The stator winding is arranged to one of receive an electrical current and produce an electrical current having a power between 1 MW and 50 MW. The stator has a stator current density of greater than 5 A/mm2. A rotor is at least partially disposed within the stator bore and has a rotor winding. The rotor has a rotor current density of greater than 5 A/mm2. A high-pressure cooling system is operable to actively cool the stator and the rotor. The rotor winding and the stator winding interact to one of produce rotation of the rotor to drive a connected device in response to the receipt of the electrical current and produce the electrical current in response to rotation of the rotor driven by the connected device.
