In this paper, electromagnetic dynamic characteristics of suspension system of middle-low speed maglev train are analyzed with finite element analysis (FEA) method based on the high-performance computing platform (HPC). The couple structure between F-type track and suspension magnet is meshed by pretension element. The dynamic characteristics of suspension system are simulated in three-dimensional model with 4 degrees of freedom motions condition. Both the numerical simulations and the actual force tests of suspension system are carried out with the same input. The result shows that the calculation accuracy of finite element analysis is high.
