Abstract
With the merits of self-levitation, self-stabilization, zero magnetic drag, environment-friendliness, and low energy consumption, high-temperature superconducting (HTS) maglev is regarded as one of the main technology modes for the future rail transit. For the researches on the lateral-vertical coupled dynamics of the HTS maglev, there is still a lack of lateral-vertical coupled force model that can characterize the macroscopic force between high-temperature superconductor and permanent magnet guideway (PMG). In this article, a scanning experiment of levitation force and guidance force in a selected area on the vertical plane was carried out, and the law of levitation force and guidance force changing with coordinates was studied as well. Moreover, the finite element method was used to calculate the magnetic field distribution of the Halbach-type PMG, meanwhile, the Lorentz force formula was utilized to analyze the influence law of PMG's magnetic field on the levitation force and guidance force. On the basis of this research, a 2-D force model that neglects the hysteretic between high-temperature superconductor and PMG was established. By comparing the simulation results of the model with the measured data of the experiment, it is found that both of them are in good agreement, which verifies the reliability of the proposed model. The 2-D force model is very helpful to the future research and calculation of the dynamics of the HTS maglev.
