| Abstract |
One major challenge in modern elevator construction is the design of systems, which satisfy the requirements of very high buildings. In this sense conventional elevators with mechanical guides came to their application limitations. An opportunity to optimize the passenger traffic in very high buildings and also in very deep mining applications is an elevator system driven by linear motors instead of traction sheave and ropes. This system can be improved by using non-contact electromagnetic guides instead of a conventional mechanical guiding system. The aim of this work is the implementation of a feedback control for such an active magnetic guiding system for an elevator car in a simulation model. At first, an overview over the applied elevator system is presented. Functionality of drive and guiding system is explained. Afterwards, the design of the simulation model and the derivation of a multi variable state control for the elevator car guiding are shown. Finally, results are presented and analyzed, which show the feasibility of the entire elevator system. |
