According to the development of power electronic element(GTO, IGBT) and material for electrical machines(permanent magnet, super conductor), the technology for electrical machines is nowaday rapidly developing. Here with, a novel electrical machine, based on the new conception of transverse flux configuration leads to a considerable Increase in power density and enables simultaneously high efficiency. The transverse flux machine with PM excitation will be applied to gearless direct drives for railway traction system and magnetic levitation system. The designed and measured performance of transverse machine for railway traction system and magnetic levitation system revealed a great potential of system improvements to reduce linear motor mass and increase efficiency.
