Technology

Levitation
The super-speed Transrapid maglev system has no wheels, no axles, no gear transmissions, no steel rails, and no overhead electrical pantographs. The maglev vehicles do not roll on wheels; rather, they hover above the track guideway, using the attractive magnetic force between two linear arrays of electromagnetic coils—one side of the coil on the vehicle, the other side in the track guideway, which function together as a magnetic dipole. During levitation and travelling operation, the Transrapid maglev vehicle floats on a frictionless magnetic cushion with no mechanical contact whatsoever with the track guideway. On-board vehicle electronic systems measure the dipole gap distance 100,000 times per second to guarantee the clearance between the coils attached to the underside of the guideway and the magnetic portion of the vehicle wrapped around the guideway edges. With this precise, constantly updated electronic control, the dipole gap remains nominally constant at. When levitated, the maglev vehicle has about  of clearance above the guideway surface.

The Transrapid maglev vehicle requires less power to hover than it needs to run its on-board air conditioning equipment.

In Transrapid vehicle versions TR08 and earlier, when travelling at speeds below, the vehicle levitation system and all on-board vehicle electronics were supplied with power through physical connections to the track guideway. At vehicle speeds above, all on-board power was supplied by recovered harmonic oscillation of the magnetic fields created from the track’s linear stator. (Since these oscillations are parasitic, they cannot be used for vehicle propulsion). A new energy transmission system, version TR09, has since been developed for Transrapid, in which maglev vehicles now require no physical contact with the track guideway for their on-board power needs, regardless of the maglev vehicle speed. This feature helps to reduce on-going maintenance and operational costs.

In case of power failure of the track’s propulsion system, the maglev vehicle can use on-board backup batteries to temporarily power the vehicle's levitation system.

 Levitation 
 The super - speed Transrapid magnetic levitation organization has no wheel, no axles, no gear infection, no steel rails, and no overhead electric pantographs. The maglev vehicles do not roll on wheels; rather, they hover above the path guideway, using the attractive magnetic force between two analogue arrays of electromagnetic coils — one slope of the coil on the vehicle, the early side in the cut guideway, which function together as a magnetic dipole. During levitation and travel operation, the Transrapid maglev vehicle floats on a frictionless magnetic shock absorber with no mechanical liaison whatsoever with the cut guideway. On - board vehicle electronic systems measure the dipole gap distance 100,000 times per second to guarantee the headroom between the coil attached to the bottom of the guideway and the charismatic portion of the vehicle wrapped around the guideway edges. With this accurate, constantly updated electronic restraint, the dipole gap remains nominally changeless at. When levitated, the maglev vehicle has about   of clearance above the guideway surface.

A new energy transmission system, version TR09, has since been developed for Transrapid, in which maglev vehicles now require no forcible contact with the track guideway for their on - display panel power needs, regardless of the maglev vehicle speed. This feature helps to repress on - going maintenance and operational costs. 

 In case of power failure of the racetrack ’s propulsion arrangement, the maglev vehicle can use on - board backup batteries to temporarily power the fomite's levitation system.
