The configuration is insusceptible to armature reaction because of large equivalent magnetic resistance in the flux path. The characteristics are analyzed using a two-dimensional finite element method (FEM) considering the core material. For high air-gap flux density and small armature reaction, the very high thrust density beyond the conventional maximum value of 100kN/m2 can be obtained.
