Abstract

This paper presents a new class of linear permanent magnet (PM) vernier machines which is suitable for low speed and high thrust force applications. The machine is composed of a tubular stator and a tubular translator. The stator consists of an iron core with salient teeth wound with 3-phase armature windings and PMs mounted on the surface of stator teeth. The translator is designed as a simple tubular iron core with salient teeth so that it is very robust to transmit high thrust force. By using the finite element method, the characteristics and performances of the proposed machine are analyzed and verified.
