Abstract
- The unique properties of superconductors make the design of levitation devices possible. In some of them, lateral displacements of the superconducting levitating part often result in a decrease in the levitation force, which can cause a critical malfunction of the system. In this work, the authors theoretically analyze the levitation force of a system consisting of an infinitely long superconductor over an infinitely long permanent-magnet guideway using a realistic model based on a magnetic-energy minimization procedure, from which they give the physical keys for understanding the levitation force reduction after lateral displacements and how to minimize these effects.
