Linear Motor:
Regenerative Power Selection
(a) When the external load on torque does not exist
If the motor operates back and forth, the energy generated by the brake will go into
the capacitance of DC bus. When the voltage of the capacitance exceeds a specific
value, the redundant energy will be consumed by regenerative resistor. Two ways of
selecting regenerative resistor are provided here. The table below provides the
energy calculation method. Users can refer to it and calculate the selected
regenerative resistor.

Assume the total weight of movable section and load is m kg, when v m/s decelerates
to 0, its regenerative energy is E = 0.5 mv

(joule) and the consumed regenerative
resistor is E – Ec joule. If the cycle of back and forth operation is T sec, then the
power of regenerative resistor it needs is 2 × (E – Ec) / T. Followings are the
calculation procedure:
