Influence of Different Types of Materials on Characteristics of Electrodynamic Levitation System
Electromagnetic levitation represents a contemporary line of technology with a wide spectrum of applications in several areas of engineering. Regarding the increased demands for this technology in-depth research into its dynamics and the influence of different material characteristics used in these systems is needed. This paper presents simulation results of electrodynamic levitation system regarding different types of materials used for levitating disc. The main intention is to provide a comparison of electrodynamic levitation systems with different materials used for levitating disc in order to improve the system itself. Therefore, the impact of different materials used for the levitating disc of the electrodynamic levitation system would be investigated through some parameters of interest such as an analysis of the electromagnetic force, disk displacement, and the time required to achieve a stable disk position.
