Abstract
Intensive development of city transit vehicles with electromagnetic suspension of the last decade raises the significance of their optimal design problems. In this paper, the simulation model of an electromagnetic suspension system of the city transit vehicle created in Simulink is presented. The model is featuring feedback applied to determine the magnitude of the magnetic flux. The main parameters of the electromagnet were evaluated while creating the model. The presented model was used to obtain the air gap regulator settings. An adaptive control system ensuring low energy consumption at low speed and high gap control accuracy at high speed could lead to the realization of the stable and efficient suspension system.
