Background: The problemto reduce the metal content of the levitation track is important when we create the transport systems with magnetic suspension.
Aim is develop the reasonable recommendations to choose the geometric dimensions of the levitation track.
Methods: we usedthe main provisions of the electromagnetic field theory and the aspects of the Fourier theory.
Results: the optimal values of the width and thickness of the levitation track are justified.
Conclusion: when we choose the width of the track we should be guided by considerations related to material consumption and the appearance of the side electromagnetic forces. The values of these forces are bigger the greater the ratio of the transverse displacement of the excitation solenoid to the track width. From the point of view of electrodynamics the value of the order of several centimeters we can consider as the upper limit of the track thickness.
