Oh wow, #YASA just broke their own *unofficial* #record for power density. 🚀 Keep smashing those benchmarks that only your mom cares about! ⚡️ How many axes of flux does it take to bring this record up over dinner? 🍽️

YASA smashes own unofficial power density world record pushing state-of-the-art electric motor to staggering new 59kW/kg benchmark - YASA Limited

Earlier in the summer YASA achieved 550kW (738bhp) from a 13.1kg version of its new axial flux prototype motor, equating to an unofficial power density world record of 42kW/kg Now latest testing of an even lighter 12.7kg version on a more powerful dynamometer has shattered this record, with a staggering…

Beware of #PowerDensity scams!

"Without incorporating metal enclosure, cooling fan, and line filter, the numbers for power density of a #PowerConverter can be misleading." ~Bob White

When you hear a power density figure, ask if it includes Enclosure-Fan-Filter.

Another breakthrough by #StrategicElements ($SOR.ax) and their brilliant team at #AustralianAdvancedMaterials who are working with Prof Dewei Chu to convert moisture into electrical energy.
The team are on track to exceed the #PowerDensity of #Solar technology.
In the context of solar panels, power density refers to the
amount of power that can be generated per unit area of the panel. Photovoltaic technology (solar) has
the highest power density of all renewable energy sources and is the gold standard. Exceeding the
power density of solar will represent a significant global achievement for the Energy Ink™️ It has even got the attention of the media arm of the #FossilFuel lobbyists at #theAustralian !!
