I'm working on a project and came across electromagnetic braking recently and I'm really curious to know if it's really feasible. The project in brief is a vehicle on a monorail at speeds of +600km/hr needs to be stopped. The monorail is made of an alloy of aluminium.
I have no background in electromagnetics, I wanted to know how I could go about calculating the heat it would generate, and how much power it would need if the size of the magnets was known?
