Özet

We have designed multisurface Halbach high temperature superconductor-permanent magnetic guideway (HTS-PMG) arrangements for magnetically levitated transportation (Maglev) and investigated the static force parameters in addition to the dynamic response characteristics. Three different Halbach HTS-PMG arrangements were used with multisurface (6 HTS, 4 HTS) and single surface (2 HTS) configurations and static and dynamic measurements were carried out in three different field cooling heights (FCHs). The bigger vertical loading capacity and wider loading gap were obtained with multisurface Halbach HTS-PMG arrangements. In addition, nearly four times bigger guidance force values of multisurface arrangements than that of single surface one indicates that the side HTSs in multisurface arrangements make a significant contribution to the guidance force and thus lateral movement stability ofMaglev systems. Both the vertical and lateral dynamic stiffness values increased with decreasing FCH and it can be also said that the dynamic stiffness properties of Maglev systems can be enhanced especially in lateral direction by using the multisurface Halbach HTS-PMG arrangements. Understanding of these experimental observations is supported by dedicated theoretical modelling through a 2-D approximation of the system. We show that by using a single material parameter (the critical current density J(c)) for the whole superconducting set, one may satisfactorily predict the complete series of experiments. The static and dynamic parameters obtained from this study and the results of dedicated theoretical modeling for single-surface and multisurface HTS-PMG arrangements are thought to be helpful for the researchers working on static and dynamic performances of HTS Maglev systems.
