INFLUENCE OF LONGITUDINAL FRINGE EFFECT ON THE OPERATION OF HIGH SPEED TRACTION INDUCTION LINEAR MOTORS

Considerable attention is being given, in many countries to the problems of linear induction motors for high and super-high speeds. Nevertheless the use of the linear motor as a traction motor has given rise to controversy with regard to its operational limits for land vehicles. With increase in speed the longitudinal fringe effect due to physical relationships of the reactive bus and the inductive gap, termed the "entrance-exit" processes, have attained considerable importance. The results of tests carried out with a model traction linear motor in the Leningrad Polytechnical Institute are discussed in this article.
