Abstract: A rotary electric machine including a stator (10), a rotor (22) separated from the stator by an air gap, journalled for rotation relative to the stator about an axis of rotation, and electrical windings (14) carried by at least one of the rotor and the stator. A cooling liquid flow path (26, 28) is provided for cooling the windings, and a gas vent passage (56) in the rotor introduces gas into the air gap to prevent the entry of liquid coolant into it and/or to drive accumulated liquid coolant out of the air gap.

Abstract: An energy source for a closed cycle engine including a boiler (10) having a working fluid chamber (12) in heat exchange relation with a reaction chamber (14). A closed flow path loop (16, 34, 36, 38, 44, 46, 52) including a turbine (18) receives working fluid from the fluid chamber, provides a power output and returns the fluid to the chamber. Lithium (80) is reacted with water (70) in the reaction chamber (14) to generate heat for heating the working fluid and hydrogen. Oxygen, obtained by decomposition of sodium superoxide (82) elsewhere in the system, is fed to the reaction chamber (14) and combined with the hydrogen to provide water and additional heat for the working fluid.

Abstract: The use of a working fluid that is subject to freezing is achieved in a fluid system including a rotating fluid management device (RFMD) (10) and a fluid flow loop (22) connected to the RFMD (10) and arranged so that the inventory of working fluid in the system drains to the RFMD (10) when the system is not operating. The RFMD (10) includes a housing (32) having an inlet port (60, 64), a first outlet port (56), a second outlet port (62), a reservoir (34) mounted on the housing (32) for rotation about a vertical axis (38), a return (92, 93) for directing working fluid from the inlet port (60, 64) to the reservoir (34), a pitot tube (116) fixed to the housing (32) and extending to adjacent radially outer location (118) in the reservoir (34) for directing liquide phase working fluid from the reservoir to the first outlet (62), and a vent (121) located radially inward from the radially outer location (118) for directing gas phase working fluid from the reservoir (34) to the second outlet port (56). The reservoir (34) includes a storage volume (84) sufficient to store the entire inventory of working fluid in the system when the system is not operating. The storage volume (84) is defined by an upwardly opening, concave surface of revolution (86) centered on the vertical axis (38).

Abstract: Machine électrique rotative comprenant un stator (10), un rotor (22) séparé du stator par un entrefer, tourillonné de manière à pouvoir tourner autour d'un axe de rotation par rapport au stator, et des enroulements électriques (14) portés par le rotor et le stator ou au moins par l'un de ces organes. Un cheminement d'écoulement de liquide refroidisseur (26, 28) permet de refroidir les enroulements, et un passage de mise à l'évent de gaz (56) dans le rotor introduit du gaz dans l'entrefer pour empêcher l'entrée de liquide refroidisseur à son intérieur et/ou pour évacuer le liquide refroidisseur de l'entrefer.
