This paper presents a comparison of efficiency and mover mass on a double-sided permanent magnet linear synchronous generator (PMLSG) according to its magnetization pattern. When a PMLSG has a lighter mover, it has advantages such as lower cost and other aspects regarding mechanical losses. In general, PMLSGs are used with a vertical PM pattern, but we propose a horizontal PM pattern in this paper because the horizontal PM mover does not need a back-iron for the magnetic path. Electromagnetic field analysis is especially essential when analyzing the characteristics of PMLSGs. For this type of analysis, commercial finite element analysis tools are widely used because they offer convenient user interfaces that provide very accurate analytical results. Based on two-dimensional finite element analysis, we got results for two different patterns and compared them with our experimental results. Finally, the results of this analysis and the test results obtained confirm the validity of the model and the superiority of the horizontal pattern proposed in this paper
