This paper presents size reduction of primary iron core for tubular linear induction motor by improved winding configuration. Using one-ampere conductor method, magnetic field analysis of tubular linear induction motor for size reduction is conducted. Size reduction and improvement of air gap flux distribution is achieved by improved winding configuration, and analysis results are verified by finite element analysis (FEA) and experiments.
