General Field Spiral Separation

- Field — refers to the magnetic field generated in an electrical machine — often by field windings or permanent magnets.
- Spiral — could refer to the spiral arrangement of conductors, laminations, or cooling ducts — typically used to control magnetic flux distribution or manage heat.
- Separation — usually implies spacing or isolation — either physical separation of components, magnetic flux separation, or electrical insulation.
- Hydrogenerators / Turbogenerators: Spiral field arrangements are used for large-scale generators to:
- Evenly distribute magnetic flux.
- Improve efficiency and balance.
- Aid in thermal management.
- Transformers: Spiral wound core or winding arrangements with calculated separation to minimize losses and ensure insulation.
- Magnetic Bearings / MRI Machines: Where precise magnetic field control is needed in spiral layouts.
