Permanent magnet (PM) array affects flux field distribution of electromagnetic linear machines significantly. A novel dual Halbach array is proposed in this paper to enhance flux density in air gap, and thus to improve output performance of linear machines. Magnetic field in three-dimensional (3D) s...
