ABSTRACT
Linear Inductor motors ( which include homopolar and reluctance types) have been proposed as integrated means of propulsion and levitation for magnetically levitated vehicles. This paper presents a simplified analysis of steady state behavior of such a motor when supplied from a six-pulse ideal current-fed inverter with instantaneous induced voltage commutation
Steady state thrust, normal force, field current and phase voltage time waveforms are calculated for running conditions and also for a line-commutation starting scheme.
