Research abstract
RaserT Technologies has developed and demonstrated electromagnetic technologies that can produce performance from an alternating current induction motor that is superior to state of the art traction motors that employ costly and difficult to use permanent magnet materials. These technologies offer high power density and high torque density for traction motors and generators for hybrid electric vehicles. In Phase I, RaserT will develop the conceptual design and performance predictions based on modeling for two Integrated Starter Generators/Alternators (ISA's). The ISA's would be pancake type motors, one conceptually designed appropriate to a re-powered HMMWV and the second conceptually designed appropriate to a Future Tactical Truck System. The two conceptual designs would demonstrate the scalability of output power and torque to levels appropriate to Future Combat Systems vehicles. The Phase I option proposal is that RaserT would fabricate an engineering prototype of one of the ISA types and test that prototype at an independent test laboratory. This testing would demonstrate the realizability of the performance projected using modelling in Phase I.
