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.

Electromagnetic modelling of electrical machines through finite element analysis is an important design tool for detailed studies of high resolution. Through the usage of finite element analysis, one can study the electromagnetic fields for information that is often difficult to acquire in an experimental test bench. The requirement for accurate result is that the magnetic circuit is modelled in a correct way, which may be more difficult to maintain for rare earth free permanent magnets with an operating range that is more likely to be close to non-linear regions for the relation between magnetic flux density and magnetic field strength. In this paper, the inclination angles of the magnetic flux density, magnetic field strength and magnetization are studied and means to reduce the inclination angles are investigated. Both rotating and linear machines are investigated in this paper, with different current densities induced in the stator windings. By proper design of the pole shoes, one can reduce the inclination angles of the fields in the permanent magnet. By controlling the inclination angles, one can both enhance the performance of the magnetic circuit and increase the accuracy of simpler models for permanent magnet modelling.

Abstract A magnetic circuit model for a homopolar magnetic bearing is presented. This model connects the fore and aft circumferential flux paths with axial flux paths through the rotor and back iron. The bias flux is provided by a circumferential permanent magnet in the back iron. Results for an analysis using the nonlinear Hyperco50 B-H curve are presented. These results are compared to the results of a three dimensional magnetostatic finite element analysis. The two analytical methods are in good agreement and show that the control flux in this type of bearing follows both circumferential and axial paths.

A new type of transverse flux permanent magnet motor with surface-type permanent magnet rotor structure and silicon steel stator structure was designed. According to the new structure of transverse flux permanent magnet motor, the operating principle of the motor was given. The relationship among motor output torque, torque density, magnetic poles and winding parameters are deduced, and a reasonable method of designing motor size parameters was proposed. A three-dimensional finite element model of the motor was created and the model grid division was done using ANSYS finite element analysis software. According to different winding current values and different positions of stator and rotor, the motor magnetic flux density distribution, the output torque and inductance parameter were given through calculating the three dimensional finite element models. Finite element analysis results show that the new motor structure is reasonable.
