2. Electric motor | Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electric_motor

   An industrial electric motor . An electric motor is a machine that converts electrical energy into mechanical energy.Most electric motors operate through the interaction between the motor's magnetic field and electric current in a wire winding to generate force in the form of torque applied on the motor's shaft.

3. Switched reluctance motor | Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Switched_reluctance_motor

   The switched reluctance motor (SRM) is a type of reluctance motor. Unlike brushed DC motors, power is delivered to windings in the stator (case) rather than the rotor. This simplifies mechanical design because power does not have to be delivered to the moving rotor, which eliminates the need for a commutator.

4. Brushless DC electric motor | Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brushless_DC_electric_motor

   Brushless DC electric motor. The motor from a 3.5 in floppy disk drive. The coils, arranged radially, are made from copper wire coated with blue insulation. The rotor (upper right) has been removed and turned upside-down. The grey ring inside its cup is a permanent magnet. This particular motor is an outrunner, with the stator inside the rotor.
