Abstract
The paper describes experiments on a small double-sided single-phase linear travelling-wave induction motor with overlapping coils. Theoretical and experimental values of thrust and efficiency are compared. Improved by reduced slot harmonics, the travelling-wave machine now rivals the conventional 3-phase linear induction motor.
