Article: Study findings from T.C. Oconnell et al provide new insights into energy conversion.

"With the recent increase in the availability and widespread use of inverters, exotic rare earth permanent-magnet materials, and low-cost, precision manufacturing, new design tools are needed to aid engineers in designing state-of-the-art electromechanical systems. For this purpose, recent software advances allow a reexamination of previously intractable analytical solutions to the boundary value problems governing these systems," researchers in the United States report.

"This paper presents an analytical field analysis method for electric machines utilizing the Schwarz-Christoffel transformation and implemented with the SIC Toolbox software package. With the ...
