Abstract

Generally, the discontinuous armature permanent magnet linear synchronous motor (PM-LSM) is composed
by the stator block (accelerator, re-accelerator, and decelerator) and the free running section. However, the stationary discontinuous armature design involves the velocity variation of the mover during drive when the
armature’s non-installation part changes over to installation part as a result of the outlet edge of the armature.
Therefore, we considered deforming the shape of the outlet edge at the armature and apply skew on the permanent magnet by displacing the two magnet segments of each pole. This paper presents the results of a threedimensional (3-D) numerical analysis with a finite element method (FEM) of the force exerted by the outlet
edge.
