The study of electrodynamic dampers is an important point when working with electrodynamic bearings. These dampers may also be used in combination with reluctant passive magnetic bearings. This paper proposes a new design of a robust and inherently stable radial electrodynamic damper with a homopolar axial magnetic flux. An optimization, based on finite element models, of this new bearing topology is made. For this to be possible, a 2-D representation of the damper is developed equivalent to the 3-D damper. The results of the optimizations are presented and a discussion of the influence of some of the parameters is done.
