8 Superconducting Magnet Linear Synchronous Motors
Superconducting magnet linear synchronous motors (SM-LSM) with active guideway have been proposed for MAGLEVs, at speeds up to 550 km/h so far. This chapter treats the following aspects of SM-LSMs:
Topologies of practical interest
Superconducting magnet (SM)
A technical field and circuit theory of SM-LSM
Normal and lateral forces
SM-LSM with figure eight-shape-coil stator
Direct thrust and suspension (airgap) via flux control (DTFC) of SM-LSM
Summary
8.1 Introduction
The SM-LSM consists of dc superconducting coils (magnets) placed on the mover (vehicle) and an active guideway with three-phase air-core cable windings placed horizontally (Figure 8.1) or vertically (laterally on the two sides ...
