Abstract
High temperature superconductor (HTS) Maglev is considered to be a potential transportation type to reach the speed of 600 km/h and is widely studied. Permanent magnet guideway (PMG) involved in HTS Maglev system is straight or circle. The turnout in the HTS Maglev system is indispensable but few works have done about it. This paper introduces three mechanical permanent magnet turnouts: lateral move turnout, lateral move and elevation type turnout, elevation type and rotary turnout. The applications and characteristic of each turnout are described. Magnetic forces between the mobile and fixed PMG in the process of switch are calculated by the finite element analysis software.
