This paper describes the finite element analysis of a direct thrust-controlled linear induction motor (LIM). The time-stepping finite element method and the moving mesh technique are used to calculate the dynamic characteristics of LIM during the direct thrust control. Because LIM has the end effect, thrust correction coefficient is introduced to predict an actual thrust in control. The simulation results, the thrust and the stator flux linkage are shown below and the stator current is compared with an experimental one.
