The sinusoidal property of the magnetic field deteriorates by analyzing the magnetic field at a small air gap. Therefore, a new 1D Halbach magnet array is proposed, in which the permanent magnet with a curved surface is applied. Based on the superposition of principle and Fourier series, the magnetic flux density distribution is derived. The optimized curved surface is obtained and fitted by a polynomial. The sinusoidal magnetic field is verified by comparing it with the magnetic flux density of the finite element model. Through the analysis of different dimensions of the permanent magnet array, the optimization result has good applicability. The force ripple can be significantly reduced by the new magnet array. The effect on the mass and air gap is investigated compared with a conventional magnet array with rectangular permanent magnets. In conclusion, the new magnet array design has the scalability to be extended to various sizes of motor and is especially suitable for small air gap applications.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/s21072522","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2021,4,5]],"date-time":"2021-04-05T11:48:29Z","timestamp":1617623309000},"page":"2522","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":11,"title":["Design of a New 1D Halbach Magnet Array with Good Sinusoidal Magnetic Field by Analyzing the Curved Surface"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"21","author":[{"given":"Guangdou","family":"Liu","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"College of Mechanical and Electronic Engineering, China University of Petroleum, Qingdao 266580, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Shiqin","family":"Hou","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"College of Mechanical and Electronic Engineering, China University of Petroleum, Qingdao 266580, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Xingping","family":"Xu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"College of Mechanical and Electronic Engineering, China University of Petroleum, Qingdao 266580, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Wensheng","family":"Xiao","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"College of Mechanical and Electronic Engineering, China University of Petroleum, Qingdao 266580, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2021,4,4]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"1797","DOI":"10.1109\/TEC.2018.2840712","article-title":"Analytical Model of Slotless Brushless PM Linear Motors Considering Different Magnetization Patterns","volume":"33","author":"Rahideh","year":"2018","journal-title":"IEEE Trans.
