Magnetic field analysis of Primary Permanent Magnet Linear Motor Based on Halbach Distribution

Abstract

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.
