HIGH INERTIA INDUCTOR-ALTERNATOR APPARATUS AND METHODS

摘要

A high inertia inductor-alternator energy storage device provides backup energy in a simple, compact device. The inductor-alternator stores an acceptable level of energy via an improved rotor that provides a high level of rotational inertia. The improved rotor can be manufactured at a reduced cost due to reduced milling requirements. Moreover, the inductor-alternators of the present invention have reduced complexity and increased reliability as a result of the geometry of the improved rotor.
