Abstract :
This paper studies the sensitivity of several geometrical parameters on the performance of a linear switched reluctance motor (LSRM). The analysis is made in two dimensions using the finite element method. The study shows the strong influence of the width of the stator pole (bp) and the width of the moving pole or translator pole (bs) on inductance and force profiles. The results of this study could be a useful tool for optimizing the geometry of a LSRM.
