The Linear Induction Motor (LIM) has been employed as an actuator in conveyers and more recently aircraft launches, and some work has been done on LIMs with a curved secondary reaction plate. This paper presents a working model of a marinised LIM-boat system, with underwater stator operating the hull of a boat which acts as reaction plate. The LIM stator is shown to propel the boat through the water, and that with certain reaction plate metals it will track over the stator coils and therefore be controllable in both direction and speed. Test results for differing coils and reaction plate combinations are provided.

Design And Construction

This article presents the design and construction of a mini magnetic levitation train. The design of the train is based on the theory of 3-phase Linear Induction Motor (LIM). The train consists of two main sections. The first part is the linear induction motor, which is the part that drives the train to move. The second part is the magnetic field winding, which is the part that raises the body of the train to float over the rails. Such train can move forward/backward in the same principle as forward/reverse rotation control of 3-phase induction motors. For that reason, this research controls the forward/backward movement of the train with a magnetic contactor set by using the same circuit as the control of the rotation of the 3-phase induction motor. The designed train can lift 1 mm above the rails and move within a distance of 1.48 m along the length of the rails. The test results showed drive voltage, drive force, average time and drive speed of the train. From the details and results of this article can be used as a guide to create a larger magnetic levitation train, which can be used more effectively.
