Abstract
In order to improve the thrust characteristics of moving-magnet type linear permanent magnet brushless DC motor (LPMBLDCM), the structural characteristics and magnetic field are analyzed. The influence of electrical parameters and structural parameters on the electromagnetic properties and thrust performance are researched by finite element analysis (FEA). The cogging force, back electromotive force (back-EMF), air-gap magnetic field distribution, mover velocity as well as thrust output are studied by taking some practical parameters into account, including pole/arc coefficient, air-gap width, voltage and current. The LPMBLDCM system is established, and some relevant tests are taken to verify the simulation results. Simulation and experimental results show that the thrust and mover velocity are mainly affected by some key parameters. The results will surely provide the reference and guidance for the optimization of electromagnetic and thrust characteristics of LPMBLDCM.
