Abstract

Advanced magnetic technologies make it possible to create REE-based permanent magnets with a magnetic field sufficient for levitation. In this work, the feasibility of levitation in the field of arbitrarily (discretely or continuously) distributed magnetic poles is analyzed. A magnetic pole simulates a long and thin permanent magnet. The results obtained enable designing a levitator for an arbitrary distribution of magnets. A number of magnetic pole configurations is considered. The range of the levitator’s parameters providing stable equilibrium of the rotor in the magnetic field is found.
