Abstract
A conceptual design of a superconducting magnet for magnetic levitated train (MAGLEV) using a silver sheathed wire of high Tc oxide superconductor is studied. In the conceptual design, the superconducting magnet is operated by persistent current at 20K. The efficiency and the reliability of refrigerator are high at 20K. The critical current density of 6x104 A/cm2 is required at 5T for the conductor. The coil is stable against disturbance, because the minimum quench energy is large. On the other hand, the quench propagation velocity of the coil is low. The coil needs active quench protection.
