Surface permanent magnet-type vernier motors with three magnet array-type rotors (parallel magnetized type, repulsion type, and Halbach type) are compared based on the pull-out torque. It was clarified that increasing the rotor radius increases the pull-out torque at a fixed three-phase alternating voltage. The mechanism for the pull-out torque increase on each magnet array type was different, when the effects of the increase were analyzed based on an induced electromotive force and a synchronous reactance. As a result, the design of the Halbach-type rotor was found to be especially effective for achieving high pull-out torque, because this array type achieves a large induced electromotive force $E_0$ and a small synchronous reactance $x_s$.

In this paper, a novel permanent magnet array is proposed and the magnetic field distribution is evaluated analytically by using magnetic scalar potential. The characteristics of the synchronous permanent magnet planar motor with this novel magnet array such as inductance, back-EMF, and force are calculated by analytical method. The superiority and feasibility of the novel magnet array are verified by comparing with Asakawa array, Chitayat array, and experiment data. Otherwise, the force is developed form 27.77[N] to 30.37[N] by using the method of genetic algorithm.

This paper introduces an innovative hybrid array consisting of both permanent and electro magnets. It will enable us to develop an active control mechanism for underdamped electro-dynamic suspension (EDS) Maglev systems. The proposed scheme is based on the Halbach array configuration which takes the major technical advantage from the original Halbach characteristics: a strongly concentrated magnetic field on one side of the array and a cancelled field on the opposite side. In addition, the unique feature of the proposed concept only differs from the Halbach array with permanent magnets. The total magnetic field of the array can be actively controlled through the current of the electro-magnet's coils. As a result, the magnetic force produced by the proposed hybrid array can also be controlled actively. This study focuses on the magnetic characteristics and capability of the proposed array as compared to the basic Halbach concept. The results show that the proposed array is capable of producing not only an equivalent suspension force of the basic Halbach permanent magnet array but also a controlled mode. Consequently, the effectiveness of the proposed array confirms that this study can be used as a technical framework to develop an active control mechanism for an EDS Maglev system.

Generally, traction motors for railway vehicles are inferior to that of electric vehicle in terms of output density. Traction motors for railway vehicles are relatively free of spatial constraints than motors electric vehicles, but in terms of whole system efficiency, increasing output density of traction motor is helpful. In this paper, using Halbach magnet array structure, output density of traction motor for 40kW class tram was elevated. This paper introduce detailed design process of the Halbach magnet array structure applied model, and check the affects on output characteristics by parameters like rotor shape, airgap diameter and pole ratio. Also, electrical output characteristics were compared between typical SPMSM model and Halbach magnet array model, which has same output size.

Comparison on the performances between the Halbach array type permanent magnet linear synchronous motor (HA-PMLSM) and the convensional array type permanent magnet linear synchronous motor (CA-PMLSM) was made with finite element analysis (FEA) and experiment. The HA-PMLSM is seen to be superior to the CA-PMLSM. Optimum ratio of magnet length to slot pitch of the HA-PMLSM which reduces the detent force was determined. Also, Comparison of forces of the HA-PMLSM and the CA-PMLSM with minimum detent force is presented.

Typically, three types of levitation technologies are applied to magnetic levitation systems: electromagnetic suspension, electrodynamic suspension, and hybrid electromagnetic suspension. A Halbach array is a special arrangement of permanent magnets which augments the magnetic field on one side of the device while cancelling the field to near zero on the other side. The application of this Halbach array magnet to the electrodynamic suspension has been recently studied in order to increase the levitation capability. This paper is focused on an analytical method of the magnetic levitation system using Halbach array magnet. The suitability of the proposed method is verified with comparing to the finite element method. In addition, dynamic stability of the magnetic levitation system is discussed. From this study, it is confirmed that the proposed method provides a reasonable solution with less computation time compared to the finite element method and the magnetic levitation system using Halbach array magnet is stable dynamically.

In this paper, a synchronous permanent magnet planar motor (SPMPM) with Halbach array is proposed. First, we give the equations of the magnetic scalar potential and a series of boundary conditions. The magnetization and flux density distribution of Halbach array are obtained by analytical method; then, the characteristics of this SPMPM such as inductance, back-EMF, and thrust are evaluated. At last, the experiment results are used to verify the analysis property of this SPMPM. By comparison, it can be concluded that the analysis of SPMPM with Halbach magnet array is credible and feasible.
