SUPERCONDUCTING MAGNET SEPARATOR SYSTEMS: < THE CURRENT CARRYING WIRE MATRIX >.

Author(s) : WATSON J. H. P., BOORMAN C. H., BAHAJ A. S.

Summary

SUPERCONDUCTING MAGNETS ARE IDEAL FOR MAGNETIC SEPARATION TECHNIQUES. SUCH A SYSTEM IS ONETHAT USES CURRENT CARRYING WIRES TO GENERATE THE FIELD GRADIENTS NECESSARY FOR SEP THE WIRES TAKE THE PLACE OF THE CONVENTIONAL MATRICES AND CAPTURE MAGNETIC PARTICLES. THEORETICALLY THE CURRENT IN THE WIRES CAN BE SWITCHED ON AND OFF EXTREMELY QUICKLY THUS ENSURING WORKING AS CONTINUOUSLY AS POSSIBLE. OBSERVATIONS HAVE BEEN CARRIED OUT LOOKING AT THE CAPTURE OF WEAKLY PARAMAGNETIC PARTICLES IN A BACKGROUND FIELD. THE PARTICLES ARE CAPTURED ON ONE HALF OF THE WIRE AND THE NUMBER OF PARTICLES WAS FOUND TO DECREASE WITH A DECREASE IN THE RATIO OF MAGNETIC TO FLOW VELOCITY.
