Systematic Design of a Reciprocating Tubular Linear Generator

The purpose of this research is to provide a systematic design of a reciprocating tubular linear generator, which is suitable for harvesting solar thermal energy and ocean wave energy. For the structure design of this generator, the stator utilizes a slotless structure, while the mover utilizes the quasi-Halbach permanent magnet array. The operational magnetic fields are first estimated by magnetic equivalent circuit analysis, and then confirmed by three-dimensional finite element analysis. Also, parameters of the machine structure are optimized by Taguchi¡¦s method. The stator windings are selected iteratively by operational specifications and constraints. Finally, assessments of the machine operational behaviors are performed to achieve a complete and systematic design.
