Abstract

This paper mainly reports an improvement of frozen-image model which can qualitatively describe the influence of lateral moving speed on vertical force in a HTS levitation system under lateral movement with field-cooling condition. The model is improved by introducing a dipole which represents the influence of lateral moving speed and modifying the rule of diamagnetic dipole based on frozen-image model. The vertical and lateral forces that are obtained by this improved model agree with the previous measurements qualitatively. This model can also describe the effect of finite scale of superconductor sample in a levitation system.
