13DV-9546 ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE Electromagnetic damping techniques for use in slowing down the shaft of a gas turbine based on various electrical machine concepts. A rotor may be mounted on an outer race of a bearing through which the shaft extends. The damper may use a permanent magnet (PM) design with permanent magnets mounted to the rotor. Alternately, the rotor and stator may be designed to operate upon a switched reluctance motor (SRM) design. Instead of having the rotor mounted to the outer race, an alternate arrangement may use a rotor mounted directly to the gas turbine shaft in which case the rotor and a corresponding stator serve both as a damper and as an electrical generator for providing the usual electrical generation functions from the gas turbine shaft.
