The authors investigate the regenerative mode of the linear inductor machine operation and compare two systems of permanent magnets layout. There are data presenting calculation of linear electric machine performance.linear electric generatorlinear synchronous machines with permanent magnetsлинейный электрический генераторлинейная синхронная электрическая машина с постоянными магнитами[Boldea, I.
