Abstract: | Levitation forces of a high temperature superconductor (HTS) bulk with a different thickness over a permanent magnet railway
(PMR) is studied mathematically. Several cylindrical models of HTS bulk with a diameter of 30 mm and a different thickness
over a PMR are researched by the magnetic field vector method (H-method). A 3D-modeling numerical method using finite element
method (FEM) is used to simulate the electromagnetic behavior of the models. The thickness of the HTS bulk increases with
1 mm from 4 mm to 15 mm. The simulation results show that the thickness of the HTS bulk and the minigap between the bottom
surface of the bulk and the top surface of the PMR have much influence on the levitation forces. With a certain applied magnetic
field, there is a certain thickness value of the bulk, which means the levitation force will not increase obviously with the
increase of the thickness while the thickness larges the value. |
