Abstract

This paper discusses the traction performance of a single-side linear induction motor and a single-side coreless Halbach permanent magnet linear synchronous motor (PM-LSM) for the mid- and low-speed maglev train. Based on a typical mid- and low-speed maglev transit system, the overall performance of the two kinds of propulsion motors was analyzed by the finite element method. By comparing the performance of the single-side coreless Halbach PM-LSM at different magnetization direction of the PMs of the Halbach array, the optimal angle between the magnetization direction of two adjacent PMs was found. In order to achieve the higher propulsion efficiency of the single-side coreless Halbach PM-LSM, various cross-sectional shapes of the conductor were analyzed. The analytical results indicate that the coreless Halbach PM-LSM is more suitable for the mid- and low-speed maglev train in urban rail transit system.
