Abstract

Dynamic electromagnetic characteristics is significant for the design and operation of superconducting (SC) electrodynamic suspension (EDS) train. This paper established a three-dimensional transient numerical model in COMSOL. The current density excitation comes from the homogenized model of the superconducting magnet. In order to decrease the computing time, periodic boundary is introduced taking the place of finitely long route. Mapping operator is adopted to ensure the continuity of physical quantities in the case of geometric discontinuity in the process of motion. Induced current and magnetic force at different operation velocity and different structure are simulated. In general, this model could be applied to simulate long term operation. It is also suited for the simulation of propulsion systems for EDS systems. In addition, this model provides electromagnetic environment intuitively that would be helpful for the stability analysis and design of onboard SC magnets during long term operation.
