  • Abstract
    An equivalent-circuit model of a linear induction motor is developed, using the rotary-motor model as a basis. The rotary-motor model is modified to account for the so-called `end effect¿ and is used to predict output thrust, vertical forces and couples. These predictions are checked against test results of a practical motor used on a prototype transit vehicle.
