HARMONIC FLUX INDUCTION TYPE ON-BOARD AUXILIARY POWER SOURCES SYSTEM FOR LEVITATED TRAINS

This report describes the principle and characteristics of, and the test results obtained with, a new harmonic flux induction type on-board power source system (HIPS) suitable for high speed magnetically levitated trains. The system uses a space harmonic component of the flux produced by track coils to supply power to train induction coils. Various characteristics of the induced voltage and output power of 100 k W/ car with the system is obtainable. The results obtained in calculations agree with those obtained in tests with a rotating experimental facility having an output power of 1 k W.
