Method for Controlling Frictional Heat inside Superconducting Coils

Last updated on 04 January 2013 5:42

In the JR maglev system, trains are operated by the electrodynamic force between ground coils and on-board superconducting magnets (SCMs). When a train is running, SCMs are vibrated by the electromagnetic disturbance that occurs when the train passes over the ground coils. Such a phenomenon generates frictional heat in the...
