Comparative study and optimal design of alternative PM configuration transverse flux linear machine (2017)
Conference Proceeding
Zhu, S., Cox, T., Gerada, C., & Xu, Z. (in press). Comparative study and optimal design of alternative PM configuration transverse flux linear machine.

This paper presents the comparative study and optimal design of a transverse flux linear machine with different PM configurations, viz. surface-mounted and consequent-pole, in which the consequent-pole version is firstly proposed. Firstly, the effect... Read More about Comparative study and optimal design of alternative PM configuration transverse flux linear machine.
