Virtually any modern industry, ship, terrestrial vehicle or equipment requires electromechanical energy conversion to meet its objective. As a result, electric machines of various sizes, specifications and topologies abound. An important category of electric machines is Alternators (AC Generators), which develop electrical energy when driven by a prime mover.
There has been a significant push in recent years towards developing high rpm power generation equipment, with a view to reducing the weight and space occupied for a given power output. This paper attempts to explore this topic and investigate the possibility of the use / induction of high to very high rpm energy conversion devices into marine applications.
Technological trends are also highlighted, keeping the discussion at a level that can be easily grasped by the practicing electrical/electronics engineer or an enlightened user.
