An insulation system includes a number of mica hard-boards joinable to form a free-standing slot-liner for insulating a conductor when placed therein and accommodating an expansion of the conductor. In another embodiment, an electromagnetic pump includes a stator of the electromagnetic pump including a number of laminations, a slot-liner positioned within a gap formed by the laminations, an annular wound copper conductor coil positioned within the slot-liner. The slot-liner includes a number of mica hard-boards joined to form an annular volume for insulating the conductor coil and accommodating an expansion of the conductor coil.

A plasma interaction simulator is presented. The simulator magnetically induces multiple distinct flows of plasma within a physical plasma vessel. The plasma flows collide with each other at flow interaction boundaries where discontinuities arising due to differences between the flows give rise to interactions. Sensors can be incorporated into the plasma simulator to observe and collect data about the plasma flow interactions.

Provided is an induced electromagnetic pump using a rotating magnetic field. The induced electromagnetic pump includes a flow channel pipe through which a conducting fluid passes, a fluid inlet formed at an outer surface of the flow channel pipe in one direction and through which the conducting fluid flows into the flow channel pipe, a fluid outlet formed at the outer surface at which fluid inlet is formed in the same direction thereas and through which the conducting fluid is discharged from the flow channel pipe, and a plurality of electromagnetic coils arranged at certain intervals on one surface of the flow channel pipe and connected to U-phase power, V-phase power, and W-phase.

A positive displacement inductive pump includes a central piston formed of a ferromagnetic material having non-ferromagnetic end pistons that extend from each of its opposite ends. Stationary end walls are mounted to opposite ends of a housing and are centrally bored. First and second inductive coils are alternately energized, causing the central piston and the end pistons to conjointly reciprocate within an axial bore and the end wall central bores, respectively. First and second check valves are positioned outboard of each end wall and allow valve-controlled ingress and egress of material into and out of the axial and central bores. The relative diameters of the central piston and the end pistons are changed to control the relationship between the magnetic force applied and the output pressure for a given volume of fluid.
