A Novel Superconducting Linear Motor Used on High Speed Maglev System

A novel superconducting linear motor with Halbach structure mover used on high speed maglev system is presented. The structure of the superconducting linear motor is designed. The magnetic field distribution, thrust and normal force of the motor are analyzed. This new kind of superconducting linear motor can reduce the impact of the strong magnetic field of the mover inside the vehicle while increasing the thrust compared with the superconducting linear motor already used on high speed maglev train.
