This paper deals with characteristic analysis of double sided permanent magnet linear generator using analytical method. We derived magnetic field solutions produced by permanent magnet and armature reaction based on the 2D polar coordinate and magnetic vector potential. based on the derived magnetic field solutions, Induced voltage is obtained when arbitrary sinusoidal input condition. In addition, electrical parameters such as back-EMF constant, resistance, and inductance are obtained. Finally, generating performance characteristic at the rated load and various load is examined by using equivalent circuit.

This paper deals with eddy current loss analysis of Slotless Double sided Cored type permanent magnet linear generator by using analytical method, space harmonic method. In order to calculate eddy current, this paper derives analytical solution by the Maxwell equation, magnetic vector potential, Faraday's law and a two-dimensional(2-D) cartesian coordinate system. First, we derived the armature reaction field distribution produced by armature wingding current. Second, by using derived armature reaction field solution, the analytical solution for eddy current density distribution are also obtained. Finally, the analytical solution for eddy current loss induced in permanent magnets(PMs) are derived by using equivalent, electrical resistance calculated from PMs volume and eddy current density distribution solution. The analytical result from space harmonic method are validated extensively by comparing with finite element method(FEM).

This paper deals with the generating characteristic analysis of permanent magnet linear generator (PMLG) with double-sided Halbach magnet array mover and three phases concentrated stator windings by using analytical method. On the basis of a magnetic vector potential and Maxwell's equations, governing equations are obtained, and magnetization modeling for Halbach magnet array is performed analytically by using the Fourier series. And then, we obtain electrical parameters such as back-EMF constant, resistance, and coil inductance based on magnetic field calculations. Finally, analytical results for generating performance are confirmed by comparing with finite element analysis results.

This study considered the reduction of the detent force of a permanent magnet linear synchronous generator (PMLSG). The PMLSG has a relatively large magnetic air gap. Thus, a slotted type of stator structure is generally employed. Furthermore, the detent force, which is caused by energy imbalances owing to the interaction between tooth-slot structures and the permanent magnets (PMs), must be minimized for start-up operation. Therefore, in this paper, the methods of auxiliary teeth and a notch in the teeth are applied to reduce the detent force.

This paper deals with back-EMF characteristic comparison of Vertical and Halbach array double-sided linear generator with coreless type. On the basis of a magnetic vector potential and Maxwell's equations, governing equations are obtained, and magnetic modeling is predicting characteristic analysis by using the Fourier series expansion. And then, we obtained magnetic field solutions and calculated resistance, back-EMF constant. The analytical results used by 2-D cylindrical coordinate system. The analytical method used in this paper is confirmed by comparing with finite element analysis results.
