The aim of this paper is to propose an efficient and unique reluctance network (RN) model for all translator displacements of a linear hybrid motor. This model has to consider several translator positions to analyze the linear motor performances. The proposed RN model takes into account the magnetic characteristic and the flux leakage. Consequently, the proposed model gives precise results of the electromagnetic characteristic. The RN model considers an interesting solution to deal quickly with an optimization task of a large number of constraints and parameters. The developed model is coupled with sequential quadrating programming method for an optimization process of the linear machine. The obtained results confirm the efficiency of this method for modeling and optimization of the linear machine.
