The compact annular linear pump has a duct, with an inlet and an outlet, positioned to surround an inner core. The duct has a fluid with paramagnetic properties disposed within it. Surrounding the duct is a stator having a first end and a second end. The stator has a plurality of slots that is divisible by three. There is a tooth at each end of the stator and between each slot. There is an electromagnetic circuit with three conductors wired in series disposed within the stator. Within each slot is a coil. Each of the three conductors travel through the stator by alternating through pairs of slots, each coil belonging to a single conductor and alternating conductors every third coil pair. The fluid travels from the inlet to the outlet by application of a current generator to the electromagnetic circuit creating a magnetic flux.
