Abstract

In this paper, a skewed teeth structure is proposed for the linear switched reluctance motor (LSRM). First, the normal force, as the main source of the machine deformation as well as the acoustic noise, is analyzed theoretically. Second, the skewed LSRM is designed, and the angle of the skewed structure is analyzed and optimized. Then, the normal force output of the LSRM is calculated using the finite element method (FEM), and the deformation results for the proposed machine are obtained. The relationship of the normal force and the skewed angle is derived. Finally, the experimental results demonstrate that the acoustic noise is reduced, which is a testament to the effectiveness of the proposed structure.
