Abstract
A generator is described that includes a first ring comprising a first array of magnets and a second ring comprising a second array of magnets that interact to provide a flux field, which in turn interacts with a coil to generate an electrical current. The magnets in the first and second array of magnets are potted in a polymer-based material.
