High-temperature superconducting (HTS) tape stacks have broad applications in magnetic levitation because of the uniform induced current distribution, good heat dissipation, and preferable mechanical properties. Configuration of the stack is one of the primary factors on the uniformity and strength of the trapped magnetic field. In this paper, the levitation characteristics, which are levitation force, stiffness, and rotational friction of four different YBCO tape stack configurations, were compared. It is observed from the experiments that there is an obvious influence of stack configurations on the levitation characteristics. The levitation forces gradually improve with the increase of tape pieces. While the module No.2 is an inclined stack, the levitation force is related to the inclination angle. Most of the tape stack modules can give low loss rotation in levitation, and the magnitude of the friction coefficient is close to 10^− 6. By the investigation of levitation characteristics, the tape stack has great potential for the bearing application.

高温超导（HTS）胶带叠层具有均匀的感应电流分布，良好的散热性和良好的机械性能，因此在磁悬浮中具有广泛的应用。堆叠的构型是影响捕获磁场的均匀性和强度的主要因素之一。在本文中，比较了四种不同YBCO磁带叠层配置的悬浮特性，即悬浮力，刚度和旋转摩擦。从实验中观察到，堆叠构型对悬浮特性有明显的影响。悬浮力随着带子数量的增加而逐渐提高。当2号模块是一个倾斜的堆栈时，悬浮力与倾斜角度有关。^{− 6}。通过对悬浮特性的研究，带叠具有在轴承应用中的巨大潜力。
