Magnetic Levitation
To cause diamagnetic levitation, both the diamagnetic material and magnetic materialmust produce a combined repulsive force to overcome the force of gravity.

Extractions: Up Diamagnetism A diamagnetic substance is one whose atoms have no permanent magnetic dipole moment. When an external magnetic field is applied to a diamagnetic substance such as bismuth or silver a weak magnetic dipole moment is induced in the direction opposite the applied field. All materials are actually diamagnetic, in that a weak repulsive force is generated by in a magnetic field by the current of the orbiting electron. Some materials, however, have stronger paramagnetic qualities that overcome their natural diamagnetic qualities. These paramagnetic materials, such as iron and nickel, have unpaired electrons. Some Diamagnetic Elements Some Ferromagnetic Elements Some Paramagnetic Elements Diamagnetic Levitation Diamagnetic Levitation occurs by bringing a diamagnetic material in close proximity to material that produces a magnetic field. The diamagnetic material will repel the material producing the magnetic field. Generally, however, this repulsive force is not strong enough to overcome the force of gravity on the Earth's surface. To cause diamagnetic levitation, both the diamagnetic material and magnetic material must produce a combined repulsive force to overcome the force of gravity. There are a number of ways to achieve this: Placing Diamagnetic Material in Strong Electromagnetic Fields Modern Electromagnets are capable of producing extremely strong magnetic fields. These electromagnets have been used to levitate many diamagnetic materials including weekly diamagnetic materials such as organic matter. A popular educational demonstration involves the placement of small frogs into a strong static electromagnetic field. The frog, being composed of primarily water, acts as a week diamagnet and is levitated.

http://www.wescomponents.com/new_fans_use_magnetic_levitation.htm

Extractions: The company believes this new fan technology will have a significant impact on the fan motor industry as it can be applied to all types of traditional motors including sleeve bearings and ball bearings. This helps provide products that have an unprecedented noise and vibration free operation as well as super long life. These elements are of particular interest to both the PC and IT sectors of industry for thermal management control. The fundamental principle behind the MS technology, is magnetic force. In operation the fan´s impeller being totally and evenly attracted within a 360 degree magnetic field, will rotate while ´floating´ and remain in perfect balance. This enables the impeller to stay in a constant position with its shaft rotating at a fixed point, no matter what the orientation or mounting position, thus eliminating any vibration or friction within the bearings at the mounting points. http://www.sunon.com.tw/images/msekde.pdf

CRYOCOOLERS II.4.F. Magnetic Levitation The new Japanese Maglev test line started operation in spring 1997. Meanwhile, more than 10 000 km testing experience has been gathered on the 18.4 km long Yamanashi track, where 80 % of the way is leading through tunnels [1, 2]. Two trains with three cars each have been completed. The designed maximum speed of 550 km/h planned for a future commercial use connecting Osaka and Tokyo within an one hour drive, was achieved by the end of 1997 [3]. In a collaboration with ISTEC, the use of melt-textured YBCO samples as a direct substitute of the NbTi coils is investigated [11]. The superconducting and the mechanical properties of state-of-the-art YBCO pellets proved to be not sufficient yet for a reproduction of the fields generated by the NbTi coils. As for the screening of the magnetic fields of the coils from the passenger rooms, the size and the cost of melt-textured YBCO do not yet fit the practical needs [11].

Extractions: Magnetic Levitation Technologies The conventional method to determine the output power of a laser to a high precision involves a large apparatus and requires a substantial effort. Using magnetic levitation to create a suspension free sensor for the output power of a laser beam will allow us to offer a desktop size apparatus with similar performance. A magnetic disk, suspended in a magnetic field by several larger magnets, is outfitted with two signal reflectors, one on each side. Each side reflects an incoming laser beam. One of the laser beams is object of the output study and the other beam comes from a laser displacement measurement instrument which records the relative displacement of the magnetic disk due to the impact of the first laser beam. Modulating the laser beam that is being measured results in a harmonic oscillation of the magnetic and from this oscillation we calculate the output power of the laser.

http://www.ecpsystems.com/controls_maglevit.htm

Extractions: E CP's unique MagLev apparatus dramatically demonstrates closed loop levitation of permanent and ferromagnetic elements. The apparatus includes laser feedback and high flux magnetics to affect large displacements and provide visually stimulating tracking and regulation demonstrations. The system is quickly set up in the open loop stable and unstable (repulsive and attractive fields) configurations shown. By adding a second magnet, two SIMO plants may be created, and by driving both actuators with both magnets, MIMO control is studied. The inherent magnetic field nonlinearities may be inverted via provided real-time algorithms for linear control study or the full system dynamics may be examined. Disturbances may be introduced via the second drive coil for demonstrating system regulation in SISO and SIMO operation The field interaction between the two magnets causes strong cross coupling and thus produces a true multi-variable system. The inherent magnetic field nonlinearities may be inverted via provided real-time algorithms for linear control implementation or the full system dynamics may be studied. This plant provides substantially more configuration flexibility and, by virtue of its dramatically greater levitation travel range, greater visual impact in demonstrations than any other educational maglev system.

http://www.richardton.k12.nd.us/tech/magnetic.htm

Extractions: From downtown Boston, 450 miles to the center of the nation's capital, Washington D.C., in 90 minutes, at prices cheaper than Am-trak's Metro liner? For the more than 1 million people who make that journey every year by air, this may seem like a fantasy. But it isn't. Such is the prospect which lies before us early in the 21st century, if we implement some type of program for investment in magnetic levitation (Maglev) transport systems. Here's what such a trip would be like. Passengers arrive at Boston's main station via a network of Magellan commuter lines, at more than 50 miles per hour, shortly before the scheduled 7:30 a.m. departure of the morning express service to Washington, D.C., perhaps to be known as The 21stCentury Unlimited. There are no worries about traffic jams or parking spaces. On board, passengers relax in quiet comfort, while The Unlimited accelerates at nearly three feet per second per second to a cruising speed of about 300 mph. Following a re-engineered route from Boston to Providence, R.l., and then along the Connecticut coastal strip, (see map) the first, and only stop, New York City, would be at about 8:15 a.m. From there, The Unlimited would speed toward Washington, D.C., along roughly the same path Am-trak's Metro liner now follows, arriving at around 9:00 a.m., the beginning of the working day.

Extractions: UAB Researchers Develop a Model for Optimising the Magnetic Levitation of Superconductors A research team in the Physics Department at the UAB, formed by Àlvar Sànchez, Carles Navau (also lecturer and researcher at the Escola Universitaria Salesiana de Sarrià) and Enric Pardo, have developed a complete theoretical model that allows for the detailed study of the magnetic force of levitation that appears in a high-temperature superconductor in the presence of a magnetic field. From their research, the scientists have drawn attention to a range of conclusions that establish the basis for the construction of future devices based on magnetic levitation: the demagnetizing effects that appear in thin superconductor samples can increase the force of levitation in a significant manner, whilst an excess of superconductor length need not imply an increase in force, and, in order to achieve good stability and equilibrium with small losses of energy, the current provided to the superconductor must be increased. The results of this research have been published in the journal Physical Review B and were presented at the Applied Superconductivity Conference, recently held in Houston, USA. Magnetic Levitation Magnetic levitation also has applications in other technological ambits, such as energy storage, as it allows for the indefinite spinning of a superconductor wheel immersed in a magnetic field in such a way that it stores mechanical energy (this is known as a flywheel). These devices can store energy generated in electric power stations at a time of low electricity-consumption demand, to then be made available at peak periods. What these applications have in common is that they are based on the interaction of a superconductor with a magnetic field. In this way, a detailed understanding of this interaction becomes a key factor necessary to the design, production and improvement of real devices.
