An electrical machine apparatus having magnetic gearing embedded therein includes a moveable rotor having a first magnetic field associated therewith, a stator configured with a plurality of stationary stator windings therein, and a magnetic flux modulator interposed between the moveable rotor and the stator windings. The magnetic flux modulator is configured to transmit torque between the first magnetic field associated with the moveable rotor and a second magnetic field through a movable stator, through a plurality of magnetic flux gates arranged axially in the modulator with the field excited by, and controlled by, eddy currents normal to the field through the plurality of stationary stator magnets governed by the position of the modulator rotating in reference to the rotating (at different speeds, hence flux paths) stator and rotor and their magnetic field poles, than the speed of the modulator and its interfering referenced field poles, with the eddy currents existing flux gate arrays with open or closing sequencing governing rotational speeds of the movable rotor, and enabling magnetic gear ratios, in respect to the driving movable stator, intermediate magnetic flux modulator, methods of a continuously variable, high torque, aero gas turbine transmission which allows for complete segmentation of turbomachinary stages (in respect to the bypass fan, compressor and power of the aero gas turbine.
