Abstract
This paper presents a linear variable reluctance permanent magnet (LVRPM) machine where the armature winding and inset Halbach array permanent magnets (PMs) are mounted on E-core stators. The Halbach array consists of a vertically magnetised PM pole and a salient ferromagnetic iron pole (split tooth) sandwiched between two horizontal PMs. The translator consists solely of laminations with salient iron poles. As a variable reluctance machine, it exhibits inherent magnetic gearing and a higher force and power density than the conventional synchronous PM machines. Finite element analysis (FEA) has been used to investigate the effect of machine parameters. The logical development of the LVRPM from the more conventional Vernier Hybrid machine is presented, including a near 50% reduction in magnetic flux leakage and a higher flux per unit magnet mass.
