The fin is bolted to the underside of my cart with the magnets located at the point at which my cart needs to brake
Due to the fact that i have no electrical current running through the magnets (the are permanent magnets) how do i calculate the necessary set up to reduce the carts speed.
I...
I am designing an eddy current brake system for use in roller coaster design.
I have the flux density required to reduce the speed to what i want it to be. what i need to do from that is work out the dimensions needed to obtain his flux density.
the configuration is for identical magnets...
