Experiments into plasma physics

Creator:: Smith, Christopher S.
Abstract:: Our research was focused mainly on the field of plasma physics and the creation of plasmas in a laboratory environment. We first began our project with the goal to develop a tabletop Tokamak, a doughnut shaped device that magnetically confines plasmas at pressures greater than one atmosphere. After researching this...

Design of a Standard Speed, Revolving Field Type, Three Phase Alternator

Creator:: Williams, Floyd J. (Floyd James), 1920- and Rawson, Roy Eugene
Abstract:: The designing of electrical machinery is fully as essential to the thorough understanding of power equipment and apparatus, as is the taking of a laboratory testing course. One learns the relationship of the different parts, the methods of computing their dimensions, and the predetermination of outputs, efficiencies, etc. and thus...

Construction and Operation of a Direct Current Compound Wound Generator

Creator:: Crowe, Elmer Raymond and Howard, Charles Harry
Abstract:: Electricity is the name given to an invisible agent known to us only by its attendant phenomena and by various manifestations called electrical. These manifestations, at first obscure and even mysterious, are now well understood. Indeed its great importance to mankind can only be realized when we remember that it...

Calculations for dimensions of flywheel for laboratory motor generator set

Creator:: Haller, Lorain Walter
Resource Type:: Undergraduate Thesis

Design studies relating to the brushless doubly-fed automotive alternator

Creator:: Ravi, D. K.
Abstract:: The alternators in today's automobiles are of the claw-pole or Lundell construction, which is a readily manufactured, low-cost derivative of the conventional rotating dc field synchronous generator. The efficiency of the Lundell system is low due to a complicated magnetic circuit of predominantly solid steel and a high windage rotor...

Finite element based rotor design optimization for the brushless doubly-fed machine

Creator:: Salim, Mohamed Ali, 1968-
Abstract:: Brushless Doubly-Fed Machines have potential benefits in variable speed generation and adjustable speed drive applications by combining a robust machine structure with a reduced power converter rating. While recent work has demonstrated feasibility, steady-state performance has not been optimized. The nature of doubly-fed operation causes rotor currents of varying, relatively...

Novel control of a permanent magnet linear generator for ocean wave energy applications

Creator:: VanderMeulen, Aaron H.
Abstract:: Wave energy conversion devices are a rapidly growing interest worldwide for the potential to harness a sustainable and renewable energy source. Due to the oscillatory nature of ocean waves, the power generated from a permanent magnet linear generator (PMLG) for ocean wave energy conversion is pulsed. Focusing on direct drive...

Full Text:: the PMLG is fully controllable. This thesis will investigate the generator modeling and design of a

Design and manufacturing study of hydroelectric turbines using recycled and natural fiber composites

Creator:: Whitehead, Marc
Abstract:: The objective of this project is to demonstrate the feasibility fiber-reinforced turbine components through a design and manufacturing study. The motivation for using composites is to reduce weight and simplify manufacturing especially at high production volumes. In addition, natural fiber composites are implemented for applicable components to reduce environmental impact....

Novel design and implementation of a permanent magnet linear tubular generator for ocean wave energy conversion

Creator:: Prudell, Joseph H.
Abstract:: The world’s energy consumption is growing at an alarming rate and the need for renewable energy is apparent now more than ever. Estimates have shown that optimization of the extraction of energy from the ocean could significantly aid the world’s quest for sustainable and affordable energy services for all. From...
