Sway and Yaw Motion Control Due to Reluctance Force in Controlled-PM LSM Maglev Carrier
In controlled-PM LSM Maglev Carrier, four attractive-forces of four controlled-PM's fixed rigidly on the carrier can control heave, pitch and roll motions, by using an integral-control method. We have completed minimizing of electric power loss for its levitation. But it is very difficult to control guidance with the sway and yaw motions without any additional magnets and coils. For guidance control we have made successful use of a lateral reluctance-force which is produced between controlled-PM and armature iron rail.
