Open full text 2 citations

Abstract

This paper proposes a permanent magnet single-phase linear generator (PMSPLG) with Halbach PM Array applied in wave energy conversion system and illustrates how the parameter changes in the geometry of permanent magnet and slot affect the cogging force of the generator. Moreover, the cogging force analysis method in PMSPLG is improved based on the cogging torque analysis method of permanent magnet synchronous rotation machine. Due to experiment results of prototype concordant with the analysis results of the analytical method and the finite-element method, the proposed model and analytical method are correct and effective.
