Effect of induced shielding current transmission in longitudinal direction on levitation force of melt grown single-domain YBa<Subscript>2</Subscript>Cu<Subscript>3</Subscript>O<Subscript>7−<Emphasis Type="Italic">x</Emphasis></Subscript> cylindrical superconductor

A novel layer deletion method is used to experimentally investigate the effect of induced shielding current transmission (ISCT) in the longitudinal direction on the levitation force of a single-domain YBa₂Cu₃O_7−x (YBCO) cylindrical superconductor (ϕ30×7 mm). In the experiment the sample was gradually sliced into two equal sheets, at the middle height along a diameter with 5 mm every step. The experimental results show that the levitation force is closely related with the ISCT in the longitudinal direction. Any layer deletion, even a small piece of layer deletion can reduce the levitation force of the sample. After the whole layer was deleted the levitation force can diminish about 50%. It is also found that the levitation force is directly proportional to the effective factor of surface area, which is equal to the top surface area divided by the total surface area parallel to the top surface of the sample.

PHYSICAL CHARACTERISTICS OF ELECTROMAGNETIC LEVITATION PROCESSING

Electromagnetic levitation has developed from a pure physical phenomenon into a practical containerless processing technique in the fields of both applied physics and materials science. In order to obtain a better understanding of this processing technique, two typical levitation coils were designed and the physical characteristics in levitation droplets suspended in these two coils, such as electromangetic field, levitation force field, total levitation force, and power absorption, were analyzed numerically and calculated in this paper. It was found that the eddy current density, together with the magnetic flux density and levitation force density, increases rapidly with radius as it approaches sample surface. The maximum levitation force produced by coil A is larger than that of coil B, whereas the levitated sample can obtain less power absorption at the equilibrium position in the former coil than that in the latter one. Moreover, the calculated results also demonstrated that the levitation ability decreases as the atomic number increases. The larger the material's electrical resistivity, the easier the samples can obtain more power absorption.

Single-axis ultrasound levitation system with annular clamping forces

Based on the principle of acoustic levitation,a single-axis ultrasonic levitation system(SAULS) with convex sides was designed.A normal SAULS only provides a levitation force(LF) against the gravity of the sample.While,such systems also provide an annular clamping force(ACF) surrounding the levitated samples,and improve levitation stability of samples in the standing wave field.Using the finite-difference time-domain method,we investigated the force distributions in different resonance cavities and the factors that influence the magnitude of the levitation force in optimizing the SAULS and the ACF.The theoretical analyses and experimental results indicate that the stability of levitation in this special SAULS is improved with the ACF from its designed convex-side feature.It can be developed into a simple device in levitating and moving samples steadily in related experiments and applications.

Effective method to control the levitation force and levitation height in a superconducting maglev system

The influence of the width of the middle magnet in the permanent magnet guideways(PMGs) on the levitation force and the levitation height of single-domain yttrium barium copper oxide(YBCO) bulks has been investigated at 77 K under the zero field cooled(ZFC) state. It is found that the largest levitation force can be obtained in the system with the width of the middle magnet of the PMG equal to the size of the YBCO bulk when the gap between the YBCO bulk and PMG is small.Both larger levitation force and higher levitation height can be obtained in the system with the width of the middle magnet of the PMG larger than the size of the YBCO bulk. The stiffness of the levitation force between the PMG and the YBCO bulk is higher in the system with a smaller width of the middle magnet in the PMG. These results provide an effective way to control the levitation force and the levitation height for the superconducting maglev design and applications.

Analytic solutions to Maxwell–London equations and levitation force for a general magnetic source in the presence of a long type-II superconducting cylinder

The interaction between a general magnetic source and a long type-II superconducting cylinder in the Meissner or mixed state is studied within the London theory. We first study the Meissner state and solve the Maxwell–London equations when the source is a magnetic monopole located at an arbitrary position. Then the field and supercurrent for a more complicated magnetic charge distribution can be obtained by superposition. A magnetic point dipole with arbitrary direction is studied in detail. It turns out that the levitation force on the dipole contains in general an angular as well as a radial component. By integration we obtain the field and supercurrent when the source is a two-dimensional monopole (a magnetically charged long thread along the axial direction), from which the results for a two-dimensional point dipole easily follow. In the latter case the levitation force points in the radial direction regardless of the orientation of the dipole. The case for a current carrying long straight wire parallel to the cylindrical axis is solved separately. The limit of ideal Meissner state is discussed in most cases. The case of mixed state is discussed briefly. It turns out that vortex lines along the axial direction and vortex rings concentric with the cylinder have no effect outside the cylinder and the levitation forces remain the same as in the case of the Meissner state.     

Holding characteristics of planar objects suspended by near-field acoustic levitation

The authors have found the acoustic levitation phenomenon where planar objects of 10 kg weight can be levitated near a vibration surface. This phenomenon has been studied for non-contact transportation. A circular planar object can be suspended without contacting a circular vibration plate. We have studied the holding force which acts horizontally on the levitated objects. The horizontal position of the object is stabilized by this force. In this paper, we discuss the effect of the radius of a levitated object, levitation distance, displacement amplitude of the vibration plate and the vibration mode on the suspending force.     

Ni2O3掺杂对新固相源顶部籽晶熔渗生长法制备单畴GdBCO超导块材超导性能的影响

本文通过在新固相源中添加Ni₂O₃的方法, 采用顶部籽晶熔渗生长工艺(TSIG)制备出组分为(1-x) (Gd₂O₃+1.2BaCuO₂)+x Ni₂O₃、直径为20 mm的单畴GdBCO 超导块材(其中x = 0, 0.02, 0.06, 0.10, 0.14, 0.18, 0.30, 0.50 wt%), 并研究了Ni₂O₃的掺杂量x对样品的表面生长形貌、微观结构、临界温度T_c、磁悬浮力以及俘获磁通密度的影响. 研究结果表明, 当Ni₂O₃的掺杂量x在0–0.50 wt%的范围内时, 均可制备出单畴性良好的样品, 且Ni₂O₃的掺杂对样品中Gd211粒子的分布和粒径没有明显的影响. 在Ni₂O₃的掺杂量x从0增加到0.50 wt%的过程中, 样品的临界温度T_c呈现下降的趋势, 从x=0时的92.5 K下降到x=0.50 wt%时的86.5 K, 这是由于Ni^{3 +}替代GdBCO晶体中Cu^{2 +}所致; 样品磁悬浮力和俘获磁通密度均呈现先增大后减小的变化规律, x=0.14 wt%时, 磁悬浮力达到最大值34.2 N, x=0.10 wt%时, 俘获磁通密度达到最大值0.354 T. 样品磁悬浮力和俘获磁通密度的变化规律与Ni₂O₃的掺杂量x有密切关系, 只有当掺杂量x合适时, Ni³⁺对Cu^{2 +}的替代既不会造成T_c的明显下降, 但又能产生适量的Ni^{3 +}/Cu²⁺ 晶格畸变, 从而达到提高样品磁通钉扎能力和超导性能的效果.
