A nozzle for a fan assembly includes an air inlet, an air outlet, an interior passage for conveying air from the air inlet to the air outlet, an annular inner wall, and an outer wall extending about the inner wall. The interior passage is located between the inner wall and the outer wall. The inner wall at least partially defines a bore through which air from outside the nozzle is drawn by air emitted from the air outlet. The air outlet is arranged to direct air over an external surface at least partially defining the bore. A flow control port is located downstream from that surface. A flow control chamber is provided for conveying air to the flow control port. A control mechanism selectively enables a flow of air through the flow control port to deflect an air flow emitted from the air outlet.

A turbomachine having a rotor assembly, a stator assembly and a toroidal inductor. The rotor assembly includes an impeller. The inductor is located between the impeller and the stator assembly, and is exposed to an airflow generated by or acting upon the impeller. 1. (canceled)2. A turbomachine comprising an impeller , a shroud covering the impeller , and a toroidal inductor that surrounds the shroud.3. The turbomachine of claim 2 , wherein the inner diameter of the inductor is smaller than the outer diameter of the impeller.4. The turbomachine of claim 2 , further comprising a shaft to which a rotor core claim 2 , a bearing assembly and the impeller are mounted claim 2 , the bearing assembly being located between the rotor core and the impeller.5. The turbomachine of claim 4 , wherein the shroud is mounted to the bearing assembly.6. The turbomachine of claim 2 , wherein the turbomachine comprises a circuit board claim 2 , the inductor is electrically coupled to the circuit board claim 2 , and a stator assembly is located between the circuit board and the inductor.7. The turbomachine of claim 2 , wherein the inductor surrounds is exposed to an airflow generated by or acting upon the impeller. This application is a continuation of U.S. patent application Ser. No. 13/594,458, filed Aug. 24, 2012, which claims the priority of United Kingdom Application No. 1114789.9, filed Aug. 26, 2011, the entire contents of which are incorporated herein by reference.The present invention relates to a turbomachine.The circuit assembly of a turbomachine may include an inductor for smoothing current ripple. The physical size of the inductor is often relatively large and thus impacts on the overall size of the turbomachine.In a first aspect, the present invention provides a turbomachine comprising a rotor assembly, a stator assembly, and a toroidal inductor, wherein the rotor assembly comprises an impeller, and the inductor surrounds the rotor assembly, is located between the impeller ...
