Abstract

Abstract: It has been investigated that the interaction force between truncated cone permanent magnet (PM) and a GdBCO bulk (HTSC) superconducting permanent magnet (SCPM) magnetized by a truncated cone permanent magnet in their configurations at 77K. The influence of two configurations in different thickness of truncated cone permanent magnets of single domain GdBCO bulk capture field and superconducting magnetic levitation force results. The maximum superconducting magnetic levitation force first increases as H increase, and then decreases with H when it reaches a certain value, from 5.7N to 16.6N at first, and then it decreases to 3.8N. The vertical component of the magnetic field intensity on the top surface (h=2mm) of truncated cone permanent magnet first increases, and then decreases also, from 0.20T to 0.54T, and then decrease to 0.25T. These results indicate that the levitation force of high temperature superconductor bulk can be effectively improved by scientific choosing of shape and size of permanent magnet, and reasonable designing of the system configurations, which is very important during the practical design and applications of superconducting magnetic levitation system.
