Unlike conventional hydropower which requires gravity drop and head pressure for effective operation, Atlanta-based Emrgy uses innovative twin turbines and permanent-magnet generators to produce electricity from water flowing through a channel – even if it […]
HRL Laboratories, LLC, has begun work on the surface laser architected magnets (SLAM) project to improve magnets within electric vehicle motors, a new Advanced Research Projects Agency-Energy (ARPA-E)- funded effort. […]
Magnetics technology plays a key role in much of today’s energy research – looking for breakthroughs in electric propulsion for aviation, high-temperature superconductors, fusion energy, machine modeling for power magnetics, new embedded cooling and winding topologies for improving permanent-magnet motors, even magnetic resonance imaging of crop roots. Visitors to the U.S. Department of Energy’s ARPA-E Energy Innovation Summit & Technology Showcase can explore a fascinating array of these and meet the scientists behind them, as well as many other aspects of energy R&D. It will be held in Denver in May. This article highlights some of the magnetic-related projects. […]
With advanced magnetic performance at their core, three research grants aim to boost the viability of electric motors for propelling commercial single-aisle hybrid-electric aircraft. Advanced Magnet Lab will apply its PM-360 permanent magnet material to […]
