LINEAR FARADAY INDUCTION GENERATOR FOR THE GENERATION OF ELECTRICAL POWER FROM OCEAN WAVE KINETIC ENERGY AND ARRANGEMENTS THEREOF

摘要

Various embodiments of permanent magnetic arrays are disclosed. Such arrays include a central support tube; permanent magnets arranged along the central support tube, where the permanent magnets are oriented such that like poles of the magnets are placed adjacently to concentrate a magnetic field in a direction perpendicular to an axis of the central support tube; and pole pieces arranged along the central support tube, each pole piece in contact with two neighboring permanent magnets and separating those two neighboring permanent magnets.
