Analysis and Simulation on the influencing factors of Braking Force for Permanent Magnetic Brake

摘要

The structure and working principle of permanent magnetic brake were introduced and the main factors of influencing braking ability of the permanent magnetic brake were analyzed with theory formula. By using of software as Ansoft, an finite element simulation model for magnetic brake were built up, and compare simulate value with theoretical one express that they have better consistency. Based on the simulation model, influencing factors of the braking force about permanent magnetic brake were analyzed, and the simulate results express that the height of gap between brake and track has a great influence on the braking force, so it must pay much more attention on brake design.
