A method and device for cooling and electrically-insulating a high-voltage, heat-generating component, for example, an x-ray tube (1105) for analyzing fluids by means of x-ray fluorescence. The device includes an x-ray source (1100) including an x-ray tube (1105) having improved heat-dissipating properties due to the thermal coupling of the x-ray tube with a thermally-conductive, dielectric material (1150). The device may include a base assembly (1135) mounted to the component for conducting heat away from the component while electrically isolating the component. In one aspect of the invention, the base assembly includes two copper plates (1140, 1145) separated by a dielectric plate (1150). The dielectric plate minimizes or prevents the leakage of current through the base assembly (1135). One aspect of the disclosed invention is most amenable to the analysis of sulfur in petroleum-based fuels.

Servo control using ferromagnetic core material and electrical windings is based on monitoring of winding currents and voltages and inference of magnetic flux, a force indication; and magnetic gap, a position indication. Third order nonlinear servo control is split into nested control loops: a fast nonlinear first-order inner loop causing flux to track a target by varying a voltage output; and a slower almost linear second-order outer loop causing magnetic gap to track a target by controlling the flux target of the inner loop. The inner loop uses efficient switching regulation, preferably based on controlled feedback instabilities, to control voltage output. The outer loop achieves damping and accurate convergence using proportional, time-integral, and time-derivative gain terms. The time-integral feedback may be based on measured and target solenoid drive currents, adjusting the magnetic gap for force balance at the target current. Incorporation of permanent magnet material permits the target current to be zero, achieving levitation with low power, including for a monorail deriving propulsion from the levitation magnets. Linear magnetic approximations lead to the simplest controller, but nonlinear analog computation in the log domain yields a better controller with relatively few parts. When servo-controlled solenoids provide actuation of a pump piston and valves, electronic LC resonance measurements determine liquid volume and gas bubble volume.

A linear oscillator includes a reciprocating moving part, a case to contain the moving part, and an amplitude control spindle moveably supported in the case. The moving part and the amplitude control spindle reciprocate at a frequency approximately equal to the resonance frequency of the linear oscillator.

A semiconductor device (51) for controlling a switching power supply, includes a switching element (1) and a switching control circuit. During an intermittent switching operation of the switching element (1), when a return signal is outputted from a light load detection circuit (32) before the counting of a counter circuit (14), the switching operation of the switching element (1) is restarted at the timing of a transformer reset signal from a transformer reset detection circuit (13) after the return signal is outputted. When the return signal is outputted from the light load detection circuit (32) after the counting of the counter circuit (14), the switching operation of the switching element (1) is restarted, regardless of the transformer reset signal, only when the return signal is outputted.

A linear motor in which the shape of magnetic pole surfaces of pole teeth located at both ends of a plurality of pole teeth can be easily formed to be suitable for reducing cogging force. Each of magnetic pole surfaces 19a of pole teeth 15A located at both ends of a plurality of pole teeth 15 is constituted by an arc-shaped curved surface that is curved so that a gap from a stator 1 increases with increasing distance from other adjacent pole tooth 15B. Through holes 23A and 23B that extend in the laminating direction of electromagnetic steel plates 10 are formed in the vicinity of the magnetic pole surfaces 19a of the pole teeth 15A. Inside the through holes 23A and 23B, magnetic pieces, which are shorter than the thickness of the electromagnetic steel plates in their laminating direction, are arranged so as to leave spaces at both ends of the through holes 23A and 23B.

The invention relates to a ring coil motor (1, 20) with a primary part (3, 21) and a secondary part (2, 22), wherein the primary part (3, 21) has a ring coil (6, 25) and permanent magnets (9, 27).

A rotating electrical machine, especially a turbogenerator, includes a rotor and a stator, which concentrically surrounds the rotor and is terminated at each of the two axial ends by a laminated press plate (14), which is constructed from a stack of individual press plate laminates (30). The electrical properties are improved by providing the press plate laminates (30) at least partially with slits (26) for reducing the eddy current losses.
