A novel axial hybrid magnetic bearing for magnetic suspension flywheel is proposed, and the bias magnetic flux is provided with a permanent magnet ring. The cost and the total volume of this structure can be reduced, which is especially suitable for the magnetic suspension flywheel system. The structure and working principle of the axial magnetic bearing are explained, the mathematical equations of magnetic suspension forces of the axial hybrid magnetic bearing are derived by using equivalent magnetic circuit, the mathematical expressions of the maximum bearing capacity is obtained, the process of parameter design is presented in detail and an axial hybrid magnetic bearing with bearing capacity 400N is designed. The flux and maximum bearing capacity of the hybrid magnetic bearing are simulated and analyzed by using finite element analysis software, and the experiments have been carried out. The results of theory and experiment have shown that the mathematical model is correct and parameter design is reasonable.
