The expressions of the air gap flux density and secondary current density of long primary double-sided linear induction motor (LPDLIM) with arbitrary secondary length are derived by the numerical method, which with the secondary as the moving reference frame. The effects of the forward and backward components of end effects on the normal travelling wave and the secondary current density are analyzed respectively, and their temporal and spatial distributions are presented. And then the electromagnetic thrust and its ripple expression considering the longitudinal end effect of the air gap magnetic field and the components of the secondary current density are solved. The slip characteristics distribution of each electromagnetic thrust and thrust ripple components, and the contribution of end effect to resultant thrust and force ripple of the motor with arbitrary secondary length are investigated. Finally, the thrust characteristics of the LPDLIM with arbitrary length secondary are verified by the results of the FEM model. The calculation shows that the appropriate secondary length can reduce the thrust ripple of the LPDLIM.
