CHARACTERISTICS OF LSM DRIVE AT THE YAMANASHI MAGLE TEST LINE
The development of the superconducting magnetic levitation system for transportation has been progressing in Japan since 1977. Now, a new test line has been completed in Yamanashi perfecture, and running tests started in April 1997. These test runs have been completed successfully at maximum speed of 550 km/h (342 mi/h). This system employs a linear synchronous motor (LSM) to drive the vehicles. This paper describes the characteristics of LSM drive proved at the test line.
