Abstract :
Results are presented of an investigation into the performance of a segmented rotor tubular linear induction motor (SRTLIM) and measurements of equivalent circuit parameters, together with theoretical analysis of the SRTLIM to obtain a verified model suitable for design purposes. It is shown that the classical equivalent circuit of an induction motor, suitably modified to take account of the change in topology of the motor stator and rotor is suitable for design of SRTLIMs for low speed applications
