Abstract :
The solid rotor inductor alternator possesses features which suit it for space power applications. This paper describes this type of converter and explains how space environment requirements are met by inductor features. The effects of space power requirements on the electromagnetic nature of the machine is reviewed, and certain power quality trends are projected.
