The transport system as we know it today
has not changed in the past 100 years except for the invention of aeroplanes. There
has been a huge advancement in the individually transport classes but not in the system
itself. As there are several problems with
the present transport system, new ideas to a
smarter transport system arises. One of these
ideas is the General Transport System or GTS,
which consist of magnetically levitating pods
travelling along a guide rail controlled by intelligent computers. This project investigates
how these pods can be levitated and how this
is controlled. This is done by making a small-
scale test setup where the concept zero-power
control is utilised. This project utilize permanent magnets as a bias force and a coil as
actuator which is controlled. A zero-power
controller is used to minimise the current by
controlling the levitated mass into the equilibrium position. Five different position controllers are designed and tested on the system.
The test showed that a lag-lead controller was
the best compared to a lead, lead-PI, PD and
PID controller.
