An Experimental Study on the Electromagnets for the Electromagnetics Maglev Vehicle(III)

상전도 흡인식 자기부상열차용 전자석에 대한 실험적 연구(III)

Static tests on the performance of the electromagnets of the electromagnetic maglev vehicle were conducted. Performance of the magnets wound with the alumimum sheet were tested and compared with that of the magnets constructed with aluminum coils of rectangular cross section. It turns out that with the use of the aluminum sheet we can improve the lifting force per magnet by 19.5% and thereby make electromagnets lighter than those made with the aluminum coils of rectangular cross section.
