The application of magnets in maglev trains today

Time:2023-08-25 Views:1


Magnetic levitation train is a high-speed maglev train system that uses contactless electromagnetic levitation, guidance, and drive systems. It can reach a speed of over 500 kilometers per hour, making it the fastest ground passenger transportation tool in the world today. It has advantages such as fast speed, strong climbing ability, low energy consumption, low noise during operation, safety and comfort, no fuel, less pollution, and low price. And it adopts an elevated approach, occupying very little arable land. Magnetic levitation trains mean that these trains use the basic principle of magnets to levitate on rails instead of old steel wheels and track trains. Magnetic levitation technology utilizes the electromagnetic force in the magnet to lift the entire train carriage, freeing it from unpleasant friction and unpleasant clanging sounds, achieving fast "flight" without contact with the ground and fuel.

The maglev train is the most fundamental breakthrough in railway technology since the introduction of Stephenson's "Rocket" steam locomotive about 200 years ago. Magnetic levitation trains may seem like a new thing today, but in fact, their theoretical preparation has a long history. The research on magnetic levitation technology originated in Germany. As early as 1922, German engineer Hermann Kempel proposed the principle of electromagnetic levitation for magnets and applied for a patent for magnetic levitation trains in 1934. After entering the 1970s, with the continuous strengthening of the economic strength of industrialized countries around the world, developed countries such as Germany, Japan, the United States, Canada, France, and the United Kingdom began to plan the development of magnetic levitation transportation systems in order to improve transportation capacity and meet the needs of their economic development.
