Abstract
In this study an analytical model based on solving Maxwell equations in the machine layers is presented for linear resolver (LR). Anisotropy, field harmonics, slot effects, number of slots per pole per phase and the effect of tooth skewing are considered in the model. The proposed method is a design oriented technique that can be used for performance prediction and design optimisation of the LR due to its acceptable accuracy and fast computation time. Two- and three-dimensional time stepping finite element method (FEM) is employed to validate the results of the proposed model. Good correlations between the results obtained by the proposed method and the FEM confirm the superiority of the proposed method over the FEM due to its much lower computational time. Finally, the prototype of the proposed sensor is built and tested. The results of the experimental tests verify the accuracy of the simulations.
