ABSTRACT
Maglev concept was based on using lightweight, very high
current superconducting loops suitably positioned on a
streamlined vehicle.
As the vehicle moves along a guideway containing loops of
ordinary aluminium wire at ambient temperature, the
superconducting loops induce small electric currents in the
guideway loops that are directly underneath them.
The magnetic interaction of the permanent currents in the
superconducting loops with the induced currents in the
guideway loops automatically levitates the vehicle.
If an external force (e.g. a wind gust, curve, or change in
grade) acts on the vehicle, a magnetic force automatically
and immediately develops to oppose the external force.
Working Principle
Maglev is short for Magnetic Levitation in which
trains float on a guide way using the principle of
magnetic repulsion. Each magnet has two poles.
When an electric current is passed through a coil of
wire, magnetic field is generated around the coil
according to Faraday's laws.
The magnetic force pushes the vehicle back toward its
normal equilibrium suspension point. Since Maglev
vehicles do not contact the guideway, their speed is
not constrained by mechanical stresses, friction, or
wear.
The speed is limited only by aerodynamic drag or
straightness of route.
Passengers will then be able to travel between New
York and Los Angeles, for example, in a little over an
hour, with virtually no energy required.
