A pole for use in a magnetic circuit includes a flux-passing portion for passing magnetic flux and a cap. The flux-passing portion has a face through which at least some of the magnetic flux passes and to which the cap is fixed. The cap is made of a permeable material and is formed to impede eddy currents in the cap. The cap may have a top and bottom surface joined by a shoulder to provide a distribution of magnetic flux through the shoulder that is less concentrated than the flux distribution through a 90-degree corner. The pole may be incorporated into a generator, a motor, a linear motor, or a portable engine-driven generator to increase the efficiency thereof. |
