Abstract

The superconducting magnets of the maglev vehicle are exposed to various magnetic or mechanical environments, when they are used to generate propulsion, lévitation and guidance forces. It is, important to know the magnitude of the force distribution on the superconducting coil and of the alternating force. An outline of the test vehicle, its magnets and the forces acting on the superconducting coil is given.
