Mechanical and electromagnetic characteristics of the damper based on high-temperature superconductors

The results of the experimental investigation for dynamics of a vibration system containing a damping device on the basis of a high-temperature superconductor, are considered. The efficiency of such a damper designed for attenuation of vibration in the magnetic levitation for the systems of the high-speed transport, is demonstrated. The method is developed for automatic measurement of the time-base of vibration. The data set including the amplitude and frequency relations for energy dissipation, is given. The physical mechanisms of the electromagnetic losses of energy in a superconducting element of a damper, are revealed.
