This paper presents the new design and validation process of the linear transverse flux machine of the stelzer machine for hybrid vehicle application. A linear transverse flux machine is a novel electric machine that has higher force density and power than conventional electric machine. The process concentrates on 2-dimensional and 3-dimensional analysis using equivalent magnetic circuit method considering leakage elements and it is verified by finite element analysis. Besides the force characteristics of all axis of each direction are analyzed. The study is considered by dividing the transverse flux electric excited type and the transverse flux permanent magnet excited type. Additionally three-dimensional analysis in this machine is accomplished due to asymmetric structure with another three axes. Finally, it suggests the new design and validation process of linear transverse flux machine for stelzer machine.

This paper describes the dynamic analysis method and the characteristics of rotating type transverse flux motors excited by permanent magnets; the machine is called TFRM in here. A prototype of TFRM, made by combing soft magnetic composite (SMC) core, is introduced first, then the magneto static and dynamic analysis methods are explained. Analysis results are compared with measured results, and finally the effects of the proposed dynamic analysis method and the characteristics of TFRM are discussed.

횡자속형 전동기는 3차원적인 자속의 흐름 때문에 기존의 전동기와는 달리 2차원적인 수치해석이 용이하지 않으며 특성 분석에 상대적으로 많은 계산 시간을 필요로 한다. 본 논문에서는 퍼미언스법과 철심의 포화를 고려하기 위한 최소한의 유한 요소 해석을 결합하여 횡자속형 전동기의 특성을 분석하기 위한 해석적인 방법을 제시하고자 한다. 본 논문에서 제시하고 있는 추력 및 쇄교 자속량을 표현하는 수식들은 향후 전동기 제어 알고리즘 개발이나 최적 설계에 응용될 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.

The E-Core Transverse Flux Machine is a different design of transverse flux machines combined with reluctance principle. Determination of the rotor position is important for the movement of the ETFM by switching the phase currents in synchronism with the inductance regions of the stator windings. It is the first time that rotor position estimation based on Artificial Neural Network (ANN) is purposed to eliminate the position sensor for the ETFM. Simulation and experimental tests are demonstrated for the feasibility of the proposed estimation algorithm for the exercise bike application of the ETFM.

This paper presents a characteristic analysis method of a permanent magnet type transverse flux linear motor (TFLM) with spiral cores. The spiral cores are used as the mover cores in order to make 3-dimensional (3-D) magnetic flux paths at the TFLM which have 3-D magnetic flux flows. The 3-D Equivalent Magnetic Circuit Network Method is used to analyse the magnetic characteristics of the machine, and an imaginary part, 'flux barrier,' is introduced to consider the spiral core characteristic. Magnetic parameters such as flux, inductance, and thrust are calculated from the analysis results. The computed thrust forces are compared to measured values to confirm the accuracy of the analysis.

Transverse flux machine (TFM) has been developed to drive a machine of large input power at low-speed. However, it has complicated structure and large torque ripple due to its inherent structure In this paper the characteristics of torque of a rotatory two-phase TFM are analyzed by using the 3-dimensional finite to element method and optimal design. This research shows that one of the effective design variables is the skew angle of permanent magnet. The skew angles of permanent magnet are optimized by using a Progressive Quadratic Response Surface Method (PQRSM). It also shows that the proposed optimal skew magnet not only increases average torque but also decreases torque ripple of a rotatory two-phase TFM.
