A novel partitioned stator flux reversal permanent magnet (PS-FRPM) linear machine with segmented iron mover is introduced. The operation principle of the PS-FRPM linear machine is described, and the optimisation of the machine leading design parameters for maximum thrust force using genetic algorithm has been carried out. Moreover, in order to investigate the longitudinal end effect on the machine performance a periodic model has been employed to compare with the real model. It is found that the end effect has a significant impact on the machine performance, particularly in terms of unbalanced magnetic circuit and cogging force. Additionally, the influence of the mover iron pole numbers on the electromagnetic performance of PS-FRPM linear machines has been examined, i.e. 6/4, 6/5, 6/7, 6/8, 6/10 and 6/11 stator/mover pole combinations are designed and compared. It is concluded that the machine with a mover pole pitch which is closer to the stator slot pitch exhibits the best performance among the others.
