Analytical and finite element design optimisation of a tubular linear IPM motor

Abstract

The optimisation of a tubular linear motor with interior permanent magnets is described. For a rapid design the whole process is divided in three parts: an analytical approach for the a preliminary investigation, a parametric analysis by means of a finite element method and an optimisation. The obtained results show that the adopted optimisation process is efficient for rapid and effective optimisation of the tubular linear motor.
