Abstract

A uni-pole rotor for an electrical power generator includes two separate electromagnets formed on rotor laminates and separated by a mu metal shield. The laminates further include two separate winding wire slots on either side of the mu metal shield which slots are wound with magnet wire to serve as rotor coils of the two separate electromagnets. The two separate electromagnets, when excited, create magnetic fluxes of a first polarity and a second polarity such that outer fluxes of the rotor are of the first polarity and the inner fluxes of the rotor are of the second polarity. The uni-pole rotor further includes electrical leads to the rotor coils such that leads are used to excite in an alternating fashion a positive and negative DC current in the rotor coils which allows alternation of 360° north pole with 360° south pole generation on the outer portion of the rotor laminates of the rotor.
