Abstract: A (smooth) dynamical system with transformation group $mathbb{T}^n$ is a triple $(A,mathbb{T}^n,alpha)$, consisting of a unital locally convex algebra $A$, the $n$-torus $mathbb{T}^n$ and a group homomorphism $alpha:mathbb{T}^{n}ightarrowAut(A)$, which induces a (smooth) continuous action of $mathbb{T}^n$ on $A$. In this paper we present a new, geometrically oriented approach to the noncommutative geometry of principal torus bundles based on such dynamical systems. Our approach is inspired by the classical setting: In fact, after recalling the definition of a trivial noncommutative principal torus bundle, we introduce a convenient (smooth) localization method for noncommutative algebras and say that a dynamical system $(A,mathbb{T}^n,alpha)$ is called a noncommutative principal $mathbb{T}^n$-bundle, if localization leads to a trivial noncommutative principal $mathbb{T}^n$-bundle. We prove that this approach extends the classical theory of principal torus bundles and present a bunch of (non-trivial) noncommutative examples.
