In the ConstantActuator model the force F is strictly proportional to the current i as indicated by the converter constant c. However, there is an additional non-linear force component in such an actuator that is due to the dependency of the coil inductance L on the armature position x. The inductance increases as the armature moves into the stator. The total force is
1 2 dL F = - i -- + c i 2 dx
Both force components are properly considered with a simple permeance model as shown in the figures below. Figure (a) illustrates the dimensions of the axis-symmetric moving coil actuator that are needed in the permeance model. Figure (b) shows partitioning into flux tubes and the permanent magnetic field without current. G_ma and G_mb both are the permeances resulting from a series connection of the permanent magnet and air gap sections. The field plot of the coil-imposed mmf is shown in figure (c) without the permanent magnetic mmf (H_cB=0). The placement of the magnetic network components in figure (d) retains the geometric structure of the actuator. In figure (e), the permeance model is restructured and thus simplified.
