Abstract
This thesis covers the design and implementation of a low cost electromechanical battery using an outside rotor permanent magent Halbach array with hybrid magnetic bearings and heat pipe cooling. The theoretical calculations include finite element analysis. A dipole Halback array produces a uniform flux distribution inside the cylindrical statoe, where straight windings on an iron-less stator are placed near the inner boundary.
