Brushless maintenance free design
allows worry free operation with outstanding longevity.
Single stage excitation provides fast
response time for droop, overshoot, and recovery time cycles.
Time constants are cut in half as compared to traditional
machines with two stage excitation using a pilot excitor.
High speed operation creates a design
limit of 56 inches (142 cm) outside diameter rotor for 2
pole operation at 3600 RPM synchronous speeds with a theoretical
limit of 1.5 megawatts in a length of 60 inches (152 cm).
These specs are for air cooled machinery and can be improved
with other cooling methods. The numbers in smaller sizes
are equally impressive.
Self regulation of the voltage output
is practical using compound field windings. We can control
efficiency, power factor and voltage with a separately excited
field and voltage regulator.
Size and weight are lower than
conventional two stage brushless machine designs. Bearing
free operation is possible utilizing drive bearing support.
