ELECTROMAGNETIC SUSPENSION SYSTEM
BACKGROUND
In 1966 Danby and Powell proposed an EDS system for high-speed transportation using super conducting magnets with a “null flux” suspension.
Subsequent researchers in the U.S., Japan, Germany, UK and Canada have developed further innovations (such as ladder type guide way for increased lift efficiency), but there are still a number of technical problems that needed resolution.
MAJOR COMPONENTS IN EMSS
-A Linear motor as a damper or A Hydraulic Damper
-Two Electromagnets
-Thrust bearings
-Frames
CURRENT DETAILS OF EMSS
There are three primary types of Maglev technologies:
=superconducting magnets ( electrodynamic suspension)
=feedback controlled electromagnets (electromagnetic suspension)
=Newer potentially more economical system using permanent magnets =Inductrack.
RESEARCH AIM AND OBJECTIVES
-Aim:
To design and analyse a prototype Magnetic Suspension System.
Objectives:
-Literature Review
=Research of the principles of the various types of suspension systems and analysing their functions and performances.
=Design a prototype Magnetic Suspension System.
=Analyse the designed Magnetic Suspension System.
=Compare with the other type of Suspension Systems.
=Conclusion.
