Abstract
This paper describes a maglev transportation system for automobile. The track is an array of permanent magnet blocks, and the levitating body is the bedplate which consists of permanent magnet plates, propulsion coils, levitation coils and guidance coils. The feature of this system is that the automobile equipped with the bedplate is free to approach into the track or to swerve from the track by using four wheels with the lift. The force acting on the levitating body is calculated on the assumption that each permanent magnet can be expressed as a surface current. From the calculation results, it is proven that the automobile of 4.35m length, 1.8m width and 1700kg weight can run at speed of 500km/h against the air resistance force of 3704N on the condition that the battery has an output of 337.5V and a capacity of 190Ah.
