We design and analyze two type stators for brushless DC linear motors by the experiment and the computational analysis. For a U-shape stator, the maximum manetic flux density by the finite element method(FEM) is large than that by the experiment by 1.0~2.2%. The result by the FEM is so accurate that it can be applied to the geometric design for the optimization. To increase the maximum magnetic flux density, we suggest an improved stator and analyze it by the 3-D and 2-D models. The maximum magnetic flux density of the improved stator is large than that of the U-Shape stator by 2.7%. Considering the size of the improved stator and maximum magnetic flux density, we determine that the optimized thickness is 5mm for a given specification.
