High efficiency ultra-high speed microgenerator

This paper presents design of ultra-high speed microgenerators used in a miniature UAVs, micro-robots and nano-satellites. Overview of modern ultra-high speed microgenerators is considered. Different types of design schemes of microgenerators are examined; their advantages and disadvantages are identified. The effectiveness of different technical solutions has been substantiated. A computer model of ultra-high speed microgenerators with software package Ansoft Maxwell was developed. Results of computer modeling of microgenerator at different rotational speeds of rotor are obtained.
