Analytical model for linear generator

[somerzt]

hello everybody,
i would like to have an open discussion with everybody here about the analytical model for linear PM generator.
recently, new design has focusing on using of TFPM generator for its efficiency and stability.
due to that, i think the most suaitable step to take is using the analytical model rather than modelling on FEM because the airgap of the parmanent magnet machines did not affect much on the design itself.
glad to hear from everybody.
good day.

Hello,

Thank you for starting this discussion on the analytical model for linear PM generator. I agree that with the focus on using TFPM generator for its efficiency and stability, it is important to consider the most suitable approach for modeling. In my opinion, using the analytical model would be a more efficient and accurate method compared to modeling on FEM.

The use of analytical models allows for a better understanding of the behavior and performance of the generator, especially in terms of magnetic flux and force calculations. This can be beneficial in the design process as it helps in optimizing the generator for better efficiency and performance.

Moreover, as you mentioned, the airgap of permanent magnet machines does not have a significant impact on the design itself, making the analytical model a suitable choice. Additionally, analytical models also have the advantage of being less computationally intensive compared to FEM, making it a more practical option for design purposes.

I am also interested in hearing from others and their thoughts on this topic. Thank you for bringing this up and have a good day.
