Various implementations include an electric motor including an annular radial stator, an annular axial stator, and a rotor. The annular radial stator has an opening with an inner surface and distributed windings disposed along at least the inner surface of the opening. The annular axial stator has concentrated windings disposed along at least a first side of the axial stator. The rotor includes two or more magnets. Flux from the two or more magnets interacts with one or both of a magnetic field created by the radial stator windings or axial rotor windings. The rotor is disposed within the radial stator opening and the axes of the axial stator and radial stator are coincident with the rotor axis. The flux interacting with one or both of the radial stator magnetic field or the axial stator magnetic field turns the rotor about the rotor axis.

The present disclosure is directed to a system and a method for hydride generation. In some embodiments, the system includes an assembly for introducing hydride generation reagents into a mixing path or mixing container, where the assembly includes first chamber configured to contain a first hydride generation reagent and a second chamber configured to contain a second hydride generation reagent. A first plunger is configured to translate within the first chamber and cause a displacement of the first hydride generation reagent, and a second plunger is configured to translate within the second chamber and cause a displacement of the second hydride generation reagent. The assembly further includes base coupling the first plunger and the second plunger together.

A three-phase switched reluctance machine has a rotor, a first stator and a second stator. The rotor, first stator and second stator are coaxially and concentrically disposed. The rotor and both the first stator and second stator have corresponding poles. Only one of the stators has coils wound about its poles, while the other stator does not have any coils. A defined relationship between the number of rotor poles, the number of stator poles on the first stator and the number of stator poles on the second stator may improve the torque quality of the switched reluctance machine.

Aircraft electric motors include a rotor comprising a plurality of magnet segments arranged on a frame of the rotor, the rotor defining an internal cavity radially inward from the plurality of magnet segments, an output shaft operably coupled to the rotor, a stator comprising at least one winding wrapped about a support structure, the stator arranged within the internal cavity of the rotor, and a stator support configured to supply at least a current into the at least one winding, wherein the support structure is structurally supported on the stator support. The magnet segments are symmetrically arranged about the stator to balance axial forces applied to the rotor when a current is induced within the at least one winding and maintain a gap between the plurality of magnet segments and the at least one winding.

An excitation system (15) is disclosed for providing excitation to a main rotating electrical machine (2). The excitation system comprises an exciter (50) and an auxiliary generator (52). The exciter and the auxiliary generator have separate stator cores (14, 18) and share a common rotor core (16). The common rotor (16) core may be located between the two stator cores (14, 18). This may help to optimize space, improve material usage and reduce the total rotating mass. A mounting arrangement for the common rotor core is also disclosed.

A rotor, a magnetic bearing, and a drive unit that rotationally drives the rotor. The magnetic bearing includes a bearing stator and a ring-shaped bearing rotor member. The drive unit has a drive stator and a ring-shaped drive rotor member. The bearing stator has a plurality of bearing stator cores consisting of a magnetic material, disposed on an outer peripheral side of the bearing rotor member. The bearing stator core has a first portion extending in a first direction orthogonal to a direction facing the bearing rotor member, and a pair of second portions extending to a bearing rotor member side from both end portions in the first direction of the first portion. The drive stator is formed so as to pass through a position between an outer peripheral surface of the rotor and the first portion core and between the pair of second portions.
