Title: Stage 2 Sub-Scale Magnetic Gear

Abstract

The goal of this project is to design, fabricate, and test a hermetically sealed 50 kilowatt (kW) multistage magnetically geared generator (MGG). In order to reduce risk, a sub-scale 5kW multistage MGG was first built. This project will benefit MHK device developers by providing an MHK PTO that overcomes the reliability concerns of the mechanical gears and the sizing constraints of the direct-drive generators. 7.67:1 gear ratio magnetic gear with a measured peak torque of 1796 N-m
