Abstract

Linear flat switched flux permanent magnet (SFPM) brushless machines have significant potential for many applications including transportation, automobile and aerospace. Novel E-core and C-core linear SFPM machines are proposed and optimized by individual parameter optimization, when the copper loss and volume is fixed, in this paper by finite element (FE) analysis. Then, the results of the individual parameter optimizations are examined by a global optimization with genetic algorithm. Furthermore, the magnet thickness of all the machines and the middle teeth of the E-core machines are analyzed individually. Finally, the electromagnetic performance of the novel machines are analyzed and compared with the conventional machine. It shows that both E-core and C-core machines require significantly smaller magnet volume since only about half the number of permanent magnets is required. Furthermore, the C-core machines have the largest back-EMF and force density due to the largest slot area, and the E-core machines are suitable for fault-tolerant operations while the 6/11 mover/stator pole E-core SFPM machine has the smallest cogging force.
