  • Abstract
    A NEW rotor design has been developed which lifts the present limitations, imposed by the heating and the centrifugal force, upon non-salient-pole rotors and turbine generators. The higher the speed of a device, the lighter it must be to fulfill its functions properly, so the need for high strength and light weight is taken into account.
