The paper is aimed at an investigation of the features of a tubular-linear synchronous quasi-Halbach machine (T-LSM) where the radially-magnetized PMs are substituted by four equal segments with parallel magnetization. This substitution is done in an attempt to improve the machine cost-effectiveness which makes it a viable candidate to equip free-piston engine-based series hybrid propulsion systems.
