QM Power and University of Kentucky demonstrate 50 kW/liter electric motor; DOE 2025 power density goal source:Green Car CongressQM Power and the SPARK Lab at University of Kentucky shared the combined results of a large-scale, multi-objective design optimization study, and lab testing of a prototype motor designed to meet the 2025 power density goals set by the US Department of Energy (DOE). The research demonstrated the high torque and speed capability of QM Power’s innovative permanent magnet (PM) motor technology.This, combined with advanced manufacturing and cooling technologies, ach...

source:Yahoo!finance EVs certainly mark the path to a more environmentally friendly future, but there are still concerns around the sourcing of certain components or materials within EVs. As the market for EVs expands rapidly, the demand for components like electric motors does so along with it. In 2021, the demand for EV motors is expected to increase by 40% in the car market alone. Electric motors literally drive EVs, but many designs utilize kilograms of magnetic materials. These magnets rely heavily on rare-earth materials like neodymium and dysprosium, which are expensive, produce lo...

source:EurekAlertThis study is led by Prof. Hanyu Liu, Prof. Yanming Ma (College of Physics, Jilin University) and Prof. Changfeng, Chen (Department of Physics and Astronomy, University of Nevada). Their simulations present evidence of direct and prevalent chemical association of hydrogen and helium facilitated by their reaction with recently discovered iron peroxide FeO2 in forming rare quaternary compound FeO2H2He, which has been predicted to be viable in a large region of the pressure-temperature phase diagram. Most interestingly, in a wide swath of the phase space corresponding to Earth...
