Abstract :
As a special feature, the linear induction motor (LIM) has an end effect phenomena causing weakening in airgap flux also in thrust. In this paper, direct thrust control of linear induction motors is improved by considering the end effect in flux and thrust estimator part based on the mathematical model of LIM. To show the effectiveness of the improved system, simulation results are presented using commercially available software package Matlab/Simulink.
