Tesla’s investor day on 1 March began with a rambling, detailed discourse on energy and the environment before transitioning into a series of mostly predictable announcements and boasts. So if not rare-earth permanent magnets for Tesla’s next motor, then what kind? The problem here is physics, which not even Tesla can alter.

A second wire also wrapped around the core forms a control winding. The control winding includes many turns of wire, so by passing a relatively small direct current through it, the iron core can be forced into or out of saturation. After winding, the module was annealed in hydrogen at 1,100 °C for 2 hours and then rapidly cooled.
