The air gap magnetic field (AGMF) is the key factor in determining the ironless tubular permanent magnet synchronous linear motor (ITPMSLM). The distortion of its waveform causes thrust fluctuation during the operation of the motor, resulting in poor machining accuracy of the machine tool. To solve this problem, this paper proposes a new chamfered permanent magnet structure (CPMS) to improve its performance. First, the equivalent magnetic charge method is used to analyze the AGMF, and the analytical expressions of the no-load back EMF and thrust of the new motor are obtained. Second, the AGMF of six kinds of CPMS is analyzed by the Fourier coefficient. Taking the minimum harmonic distortion rate as the optimization objective, the CPMS that makes the AGMF waveform reach the best sinusoidal property is obtained and the no-load back EMF and thrust of the new motor are analyzed. Then, the new motor is compared with the ITPMSLM of rectangle permanent magnet structures (RPMS). Finally, according to the CPMS, the test prototype is built and tested under different working conditions. The research results show that when the outer circumference is 45o chamfered, the ratio of permanent magnet thickness h2 to the chamfered thickness h1 is 0.8; the sinusoidal property of AGMF is the best, and this structure can effectively reduce the motor thrust fluctuation rates to less than 0.01%, which verifies the effectiveness of the CPMS in improving the sinusoidal property in the AGMF and restraining the thrust fluctuation of the ITPMLSM.

Permanent magnet linear motors can cause thrust fluctuation due to cogging and end effects, which will affect the operation stability of the linear motor. In order to solve this problem, a new method of eliminating alveolar force by using phase-shifting and displacement is proposed in this paper. Taking the cylindrical permanent magnet linear motor as an example, the traditional cylindrical permanent magnet linear motor is divided into two unit-motors, and established finite element analysis model of cylindrical permanent magnet linear motor. It is different from other traditional methods, the thrust fluctuation was reduced by both phase-shifting and displacement simultaneously in this paper, and through simulation analysis, it is determined that the thrust fluctuation suppression effect was the best when the cogging distance was shifted by half. Furthermore, a comparative simulation was made on whether the magnetic insulating material was used. The simulation results show that: The method proposed in this paper can effectively suppress the thrust fluctuation of the cylindrical permanent magnet linear motor. And it can be applied to other similar motor designs. Compared with the traditional method of suppressing thrust fluctuation, the mechanical structure and the technological process of suppressing thrust fluctuation used in this method are simpler.

The rail transit system driven by linear motor has outstanding advantages in climbing ability, traction performance, vibration and noise. However, with the increase of traffic travel and other situations, how to ensure that the linear motor still has a large thrust and stability in the air gap condition is the key technical problem. In order to solve this problem, three Halbach permanent magnet array structures are proposed and applied to the magnetic barrier coupled primary permanent magnet unilateral excitation linear motor (MBCPPMUELM). The finite element software is used for simulation and analysis. By comparing the harmonic distribution of air gap magnetic field of the three Halbach permanent magnet array motors, a topology structure with high magnetic field modulation effect is obtained It provides a useful reference for the further design and analysis of this kind of motor.

In this paper, the analytical solution to the planar magnetic field of a linear permanent magnet Halbach array is researched on. First, the magnetic field of a current surface is derived from the magnetic field produced by the molecular current of the permanent magnet. The magnetic fields of pieces of permanent magnet with vertical and diagonal magnetization direction are both solved by combining the magnetic field of current surfaces with different directions. Then the planar magnetic field of the entire linear permanent magnet Halbach array is obtained by calculating the vector addition of the magnetic field of all the permanent magnet cubes using Denavit-Hartenberg (D-H) transform technique, which yields the closed-form analytical expressions. The analytical algorithm proposed in this paper can be utilized to design and optimize the Halbach array, which in result can greatly simplify the calculation and expedite the progress. The effectiveness of the proposed method is evaluated by the finite element analysis software Maxwell.

Due to the large transverse edge effect for U-shaped ironless permanent magnet synchronous linear motor affect the distribution of air gap magnetic field is large, it will reduce the no-load back electromotive force and thrust. This paper proposes a novel method to evaluate the effect of transverse edge effect based on Kriging surrogate model. By comparing the results of the two-dimensional and three-dimensional finite element analysis of the air gap magnetic field of the motor, it can be seen transverse length of the motor, air gap height and thickness of the permanent magnet are the main influencing factors.

In this study, we propose a non-contact 80 kW, 60,000 rpm coaxial magnetic gear (CMG) model for high speed and high power applications. Two models with the same power but different radial and axial sizes were optimized using response surface methodology. Both models employed a Halbach array to increase torque. Also, an edge fillet was applied to the radial magnetized permanent magnet to reduce torque ripple, and an axial gap was applied to the permanent magnet with a radial gap to reduce eddy current loss. The models were analyzed using 2-D and 3-D finite element analysis. The torque, torque ripple and eddy current loss were compared in both models according to the materials used, including Sm2Co17, NdFeBs (N42SH, N48SH). Also, the structural stability of the pole piece structure was investigated by forced vibration analysis. Critical speed results from rotordynamics analysis are also presented.
