Abstract

In this paper, the operating characteristics of a transverse flux homopolar linear machine prototype is investigated under various specifications by using the generalized 3-dimensional mathematical model as developed by C.T. Liu et al. (1993). From the computer-aided analysis results, it can be observed that such a model can be easily adapted to the forms suitable for the related transient analyses on those transverse flux linear induction, reluctance, synchronous, and oscillating machines. Thus the feasibility of using the proposed unified linear machine prototype to supply a common structure for realizations of various transverse flux homopolar linear machines can be verified, and a reliable design reference for the associated applications of linear machine systems is also provided
