Demonstration of a superconducting train with LEGO® Mindstorms
We have constructed a magnetic rail system that allows a superconductor to travel in a loop for a long time, similar to a maglev train. The system incorporates a Lego Mindstorms-controlled escalator that automatically cools the superconducting train with liquid nitrogen after each lap. As a result, the superconducting train is able to run continuously for over an hour. This demonstration will motivate students to learn physics and materials science.
期刊介绍:
Physics Education seeks to serve the physics teaching community and we welcome contributions from teachers. We seek to support the teaching of physics to students aged 11 up to introductory undergraduate level. We aim to provide professional development and support for teachers of physics around the world by providing: a forum for practising teachers to make an active contribution to the physics teaching community; knowledge updates in physics, educational research and relevant wider curriculum developments; and strategies for teaching and classroom management that will engage and motivate students.
