Magnetic Levitation Control Lab Library for Proteus: an Arduino UNO V4.0 and the maglev lab with the ball floating

Hello friends, I hope you all are doing great. Today, I am going to share the new Magnetic Levitation Control Lab Library for Proteus , the fourth of our University Lab series. A steel ball floating in mid-air under an electromagnet, held there by nothing but a controller, is one of the most striking experiments in a control course, and one of the most demanding. The magnet pulls harder the closer the ball comes, so the ball sits on a knife edge: a little too close and it snaps to the magnet, a little too far and it falls. The controller has to correct it hundreds of times a second. The same idea floats maglev trains and holds the shafts of magnetic bearings.

Hello, fellows, I hope you all are doing great. In today’s tutorial, we will discuss What is Electromagnet. In 1820 physicist of Denmark Christian Orsted first time in the world found that the current produces the magnetic field. After four years of the Christian's theory in 1824 another physicist William Sturgeon who was United Kingdom native work on the findings of the Christian and created the electromagnet. It was created by the piece of iron whose design was like horse-show when the almost eighteen turns of the copper windings were rapped on the iron. The piece of iron was separated from the copper windings by insulation element. After making these arrangements William Sturgeon connect the battery with the terminals of the copper windings, the piece of iron starts to behave like a mag ...
