In the paper will be presented the construction of passive magnetic suspension with superconductors. The system of magnetic suspension was designed for GBRIEL project. There is presented numerical test bench of passive magnetic suspension with superconductor. This kind of suspension was selected for generation of magnetic levitation forces in a sledge of take-off and landing system of an airplane. This sledge will be used for verification and testing of GABRIEL system with small scale airplanes. The numerical test was made using the AC/DC Module of COMSOL Multiphysics® with magnetic no current physics.
