Full textpresent when the cylinders rotate in opposite directions. The presence of eddies in the former situation inhibits the flow through the sleeve; while, for moderate rotorspeeds, the flow through the sleeve is enhanced in the latter. When the slurry assumed pseudoplastic, we observe a region of low shear rate located near the dividing streamline present within the flow field. The distribution of shear rate within the flow field is shown to be affected by factors such as the rate of diffusion of the apparent viscosity and the value of the power law index. Therefore, this study suggests that for certain types of slurries, concentrations of particles exist within the domain and that the mixing of slurries can be impeded by the presence of eddies within the main flow field.

The mechanisms that lead to bulk flow within a ferrofluid-filled container subjected to a rotating uniform magnetic field are experimentally studied. There are two prevailing theories: spin diffusion theory and flow due to non-uniformities in magnetic field within the ferrofluid due to nonuniform demagnetizing factors. This research sought to confirm previous measurements that indicated demagnetizing factors are the primary cause of bulk ferrofluid flow. Flattened spherical containers of various volumes, and thus different demagnetizing factors, were filled with EFH1 oil-based ferrofluid and subjected to a uniform rotating magnetic field of varying conditions (rotation direction and field strength). The shapes and magnitudes of the velocity profiles measured by an ultrasound velocimeter system differed between containers, indicating that demagnetizing factors did affect flow. The complicated flows within the flattened spheres that affected both the shape and magnitude of the flow velocity prevented a direct magnitude comparison between profiles but the flows differed enough to safely conclude that spatial non-uniformities within the fluid likely caused the bulk flow of fluid in the uniform rotating magnetic field.

Full textHigher Speeds, new applications in electric vehicles and the need for lightweight structures lead to increasing occurrence of vibration phenomena in rotating field electrical machines. Lateral rotor oscillations take a particular role in this context, as they produce noise and may cause the entire system to fail in an extreme case. In this contribution, a novel modelling approach is presented, which allows for the fully coupled simulation of transient rotordynamics in all kinds of rotating field machines. This paper includes a FEM-validation of the proposed model. After that a scenario where self-excited lateral oscillations occur is presented.

Full textIndustrial inulin extraction requires high temperature and long duration to ensure inulin productivity. In addition complex steps are necessary to purify extracted chicory juice and to obtain inulin with desirable purity. In order to avoid the extracting of inulin at high temperature, to obtain chicory juice with better quality and to purify chicory juice with more simple operation, pulsed electric fields (PEF) and membrane filtration were applied to this study : PEF was used to intensify inulin extraction from chicory roots. By pre-treatment of chicory slices at 600 V/cm, diffusion temperature at pilot scale can be decreased to 60oC from about 80oC (industrial extraction condition) to obtain comparable juice inulin concentration. Moreover, this moderate temperature diffusion brought out interesting energy savings compared to that of conventional diffusion. For the goal of extracting inulin at “cold” condition (for example 30oC) PEF induced combined electroporation/ohmic heating pretreatment was applied for chicory tissue denaturation. Better solute extraction was observed after effective damage of chicory tissue diffusivity.Juice extracted from PEF assisted diffusion (PEF juice) was confirmed had higher inulin purity and less impurity in comparison to juice from conventional thermal diffusion process. The juice was purified by membrane filtration in order to investigate a simple chicory juice purification method. Since it contains less impurity, dead-end filtration performance of PEF juice was significantly improved, with less membrane fouling and higher inulin purity in filtrate. However, permeate flux of membrane filtration was seriously restricted by the membrane fouling. In order to improve filtration flux, rotating disk module was introduced in this study for clarification and purification of chicory juice. Elevated shear rate of rotating disk (1500–2000 rpm) could effectively control or even eliminate membrane fouling and lead to satisfying carbohydrate transmission (98%) and desirable permeate flux even at high volume reduction ratio (10). In view of energy saving, optimization of RDM assisted chicory juice filtration was carried out and yielded optimal operation conditions to maximize average flux and minimize specific energy consumption

Full textVibration analysis is mainly used in condition monitoring and fault detection of rotating machine domain. The success of the diagnosis is strongly related to the position of the accelerometers. However, the machine geometry sometimes prevents the sensors to be placed close enough to the faulted part causing the diagnostic failure. The sound emitted by a mechanism and its condition are related. Using microphones to optimize condition monitoring is then justified. Acoustic imaging techniques (acoustic holography, beamforming, etc…) are mainly used as a source localization and quantification tool but they can be turned into a powerful diagnosis tool. Several strategies based on the beamforming algorithm are developed in this work. Firstly, diagnosis features commonly used in condition monitoring of rotating machinery are mapped as a function of space. Kurtosis allows localizing impulsive sources which eventually can be related to a mechanism failure. New features based on the squared envelope spectrum of the focused signals are also introduced. They aim toward the detection of inner and outer race fault in roller element bearings. On the other hand, angular synchronous average is used to extract the acoustic field synchronous with one component rotation. The sources related to a fault are localized in the residual field mappings. Finally, a new imaging technique based on the vibroacoustic transfer functions between a few accelerometers placed on the machine and the microphone array is developed. It allows obtaining the mappings of the radiated pressure on the machine surface only thanks to the accelerometers. It is tested as a fault detection tool on a test bench

Full textThis works presents the current advances on the development of a new method of magnetic non-destructive testing. The method is based on the magnetic Barkhausen noise (MBN), more specifically in one branch known as Continuous Barkhausen. MBN is produced due to the effect of a variable magnetic field, which causes abrupt and irreversible changes to the magnetic structure of the material. These changes are influenced by the microstructure of the material and the stress distributions within. Measurements can be used to construct a bi dimensional MBN distribution around a fixed point, which in turn will be a reflect of its magnetic anisotropy level, usually characterized by an easy axis of magnetization, an important parameter given that more often than not, the behavior of most engineering ferromagnetic materials is anisotropic. Variations of the easy axis could be the indication of mechanical anomalies or abnormalities that appear as a result of the fabrication process. If there is an external stress applied to the sample, it can provide information about its magnitude and direction. The present work describes a methodology which uses a precise rotating magnetic field in order to obtain MBN signals related to a given magnetization angle, making possible the finding of the easy axis, exceeding the limits of conventional MBN measurements by providing real time data which in turn will allow to infer a set of parameters that quantify the magnetic anisotropy of the sample. The proposed technique was successfully used to find both the easy axis and a quantitative level of magnetic anisotropy between different materials, consequence of the fabrication process. Subsequently, it was shown that the technique was able to perform a monitoring of the evolution of both uniaxial and biaxial applied stress, obtaining linear relationships (uniaxial case), sensitive to the direction of loading. In not so much studied case of biaxial loading, the use of the continuous rotational Barkhausen method made possible to observe that the morphologic characteristics of the magnetic anisotropy measurements bear a close resemblance to the direction of the principal stress field. An evaluation of the technique as a tool for the dynamic measurement of magnetic anisotropy on welded joints, indicating stress states and microstructural features coherent with the ones expected in this scenario. The method has the possibility of being implemented as a technique for high speed/high resolution measurements of magnetic anisotropy.

Full textThe aim of this dissertation is the study of soft magnetic materials under arbitrary vector 2D excitation, turning into the sheet plane. Such conditions appear, for example, inside rotating electric machines or inside three-phase transformers. Previous work has used simplified flux density paths, such as circles or ellipsis covered at constant angular speed, that cannot completely describe the materials'behaviour. The first part of this work was accomplished by the élaboration of a complète 2D magnetic characterisation device. The two RSST of LEG received a computerised driving System (CDS), which clearly improved the measurements accuracy and stability and enlarged the frequency domain. The CDS digital waveform control part allowed for the first time the obtention of complex flux density paths. Finally, the measurement System was completely automated. Thanks to the CDS, the investigation of some soft magnetic materials, such as NiFe, CoFe and NO SiFe, was realised. - First, thèse three materials were characterised under circular flux. The magnetic behaviour was studied with respect to flux and frequency level and also the réversible behaviour, in order to get an anisotropy image. The complète atypical losses évolution could be seen in this manner in the case of NiFe, and a prédiction model was validated. The vector law B(H) was also analysed and a model for the field strength évolution was attempted. - Then this study was enlarged to waveforms observed inside a three-phase induction motor. A2D losses estimation was tested. Finally, the importance of the derivative of the flux density vector with respect to time was highlighted on the magnetic behaviour and the magnetic losses development

The purpose of this research is to provide data from ferrofluid flow and torque measurements in uniform and nonuniform rotating magnetic fields that can be compared to theoretical analyses in order to fully understand observed paradoxical ferrofluid behavior. In the presence of rotating magnetic fields, ferrofluid particles will rotate to try to align their magnetic moment with the field but because of the fluid viscosity, magnetization M will lag behind the rotating H field, thereby resulting in a body torque on the ferrofluid. The viscous torque from this fluid flow is measured using a Couette viscometer as a function of magnetic field amplitude, frequency, and direction of rotation. The first three sets of experiments measure this torque on the outer wall of a Lexan spindle that is attached to a viscometer, functioning as a torque meter. The spindle is immersed in a beaker of ferrofluid centered inside a 2-pole or 4-pole motor stator winding, creating uniform or nonuniform rotating magnetic fields, respectively. The spindle rotates at a constant speed up to 100 rpm or is stationary in these measurements. Anomalous behaviors such as zero and negative magnetoviscosity are demonstrated and discussed. The next set of experiments measure the magnetic torque on the inner wall of a hollow spindle attached to the torque meter and filled completely with ferrofluid so that there is no free surface. The spindle is centered inside the motor stator windings and exposed to clockwise (CW) or counterclockwise (CCW) rotating magnetic fields. The last set of experiments measures the surface spin rate of a small floating plastic ball placed on the ferrofluid surface at a fixed location as a function of magnetic field parameters and radial position on the surface. When the rotating magnetic fields induce ferrofluid flows, the ball spins in the opposite direction to magnetic field rotation and this spin rate is determined using frame-by-frame video analysis.

Ferrofluid surface and volume effects in uniform dc and rotating magnetic fields are studied. Theory and corroborating measurements are presented for meniscus shapes and resulting surface driven flows, spin-up flows, and Hele-Shaw cell flows and instabilities. To characterize the water-based and oil-based ferrofluids used in experiments, measurements were made of the magnetization curve, surface tension, viscosity, density, and the speed of sound. Extensive measurements of the height and shape of ferrofluid menisci in applied uniform dc magnetic fields show that the height of the meniscus increases for vertical applied magnetic fields, whereas horizontal magnetic fields decrease meniscus height. An approximate energy minimization analysis agrees with the observed trends in ferrofluid meniscus height. The effects of ferrofluid meniscus curvature on spin-up flow were modeled under simplified assumptions. Analytical solutions were derived for two dimensional low Reynolds number flows and extended results were obtained numerically using COMSOL's Multiphysics finite element software package (FEMLAB) to solve for three dimensional recirculating flows at higher Reynolds numbers.
(cont.) Familiar magnetostatic energy expressions in linear magnetic media were extended to non-linear magnetization relations. These energy expressions were applied to study the effects of linear and non-linear magnetization on flows and instabilities in Hele-Shaw cells with simultaneously applied in-plane rotating and dc axial magnetic fields. Ultrasound velocimetry of the spin-up flow in the bulk region of water-based ferrofluids conclusively demonstrates the co-rotation of the bulk of the ferrofluid with the applied rotating magnetic field with and without a free surface. Careful ultrasound investigation of flow profiles at different heights in uncovered ferrofluid cylinders showed flow direction reversal between the counter-rotating top free surface and the co-rotating bulk region of the ferrofluid. A framework for a numerical solution of the coupled governing equations of conservation of linear and angular momentum in magnetic spin-up flows that considers all the terms in the first Shliomis magnetization relaxation equation was formulated and solved. Previous solutions in the literature which decouple the magnetic and fluid mechanical dynamics by neglecting the linear and spin velocities in the magnetization relaxation equations result in no spin-up flow in uniform magnetic fields in the absence of spin diffusion effects.
(cont.) Contrary to the commonly held view in the literature, spin-up flows develop in rotating uniform magnetic fields even in the absence of spin diffusion effects. Including the linear and spin velocity terms in the magnetization relaxation equation results in non-zero spin-up flow. Numerical solutions using FEMLAB software are shown for flow profiles with zero and non-zero spin viscosity. Fitting numerical simulations to velocity profile ultrasound measurements allows the estimation of the magnetization relaxation time and the spin viscosity for Ferrotec Corp.'s MSG Wll and EMG705 water-based ferrofluids.

A ferrofluid is a collection of nanoscale ferromagnetic particles with a stabilizing surfactant in a liquid to form a colloid. The dynamic behavior of ferrofluids in the presence of magnetic fields has long been an area of research interest. A particular area of interest deals with the "spin-up" mechanisms of ferrofluids, which describe how a container of ferrofluid comes to a steady state of bulk flow when subjected to a uniform rotating external magnetic field. There are two prevailing theories that attempt to explain the spin-up mechanisms of ferrofluids: spin diffusion theory, and the presence of non-uniformities in the magnetic field, due to "demagnetizing factors" introduced by the shape of the container. This research attempts to confirm previous measurements indicating that non-uniformities in the magnetic field are the primary cause of ferrofluid bulk flow. Partial spheres and cylindrical containers of different volumes -- and thus different demagnetizing factors -- were filled with Ferrotec EFH1 oil-based ferrofluid and subjected to an external uniform rotating magnetic field for various parameters of rotation direction and magnetic field. Ferrofluid bulk flow was measured using ultrasound velocimetry, and the magnitudes and shapes of the velocity profiles were compared. Despite the complicated flows observed within the containers, enough of a trend was established to safely conclude that demagnetizing factors are often the primary cause of ferrofluid bulk flow.

An investigation of magnetic fluid experiments and analysis is presented in three parts: a study of magnetic field induced torques in magnetorheological fluids, a characterization and quantitative measurement of properties relating to the transition of a ferrofluid drop from a continuous phase into a discrete phase and also into a spiral flow, and a study of magnetic field induced ferrofluid flow reversals. The torque exerted on a spindle filled with magnetorheological fluid (MR fluid) and placed inside a uniform rotating magnetic field is measured with varying rotating magnetic field amplitude and frequency, total fluid volume, and MR fluid volume ratio. When compared to similar ferrofluid torque measurements where the torque increased with rotating magnetic field frequency, the torque frequency dependence of the MR fluid decreases with increasing magnetic field frequency. A simple analysis determines the dependence of the magnetic body torque on particle size to describe the different behavior between the ferrofluid and MR fluid. When a fluorocarbon based ferrofluid is contained between two glass plates separated by a small gap (Hele-Shaw cell) and excited by an applied uniform rotating magnetic field first and then a DC axial magnetic field, a phase like transition occurs that transforms the ferrofluid drop from a continuous phase to a discrete phase. Considering the dominant energy in the configuration to be contributed from the magnetostatic energy of the DC magnetic field and interfacial surface energy, a calculus of minimization of free energy is performed to determine the number of smaller ferrofluid drops that will result from the transition and the threshold axial magnetic field for the transition to occur.
(cont.) When the order of the applied magnetic fields is reversed, the DC axial magnetic field is applied first causing the ferrofluid droplet to form the labyrinth instability. The rotating magnetic field is then applied creating a spiral formation. Experiments are conducted for varying Hele-Shaw cell separation gap, and rotating magnetic field amplitude and frequency. Measurements were consistent with our model. A cylindrical vessel is filled with a water-based ferrofluid and excited by a uniform rotating magnetic field that induces a counter-rotating circular flow in the vessel. A DC axial magnetic field is slowly raised to change the curvature of the fluid surface and results in a change in the ferrofluid flow direction to co-rotating with the applied magnetic field. Measurements are taken of the threshold axial magnetic field that results in the change of flow direction for varying rotating magnetic field direction, amplitude, and frequency. An analysis is included that describes the change in flow direction due to surface curvature.

Ferrofluids are conventionally used in such DC magnetic field applications as rotary and exclusion seals, stepper motor dampers, and heat transfer fluids. Recent research demonstrates ferrofluid use in alternating and rotating magnetic fields for MEMS/NEMS application of microfluidic devices and bio-applications such as targeted drug delivery, enhanced Magnetic Resonance Imaging, and hypothermia. This thesis studies ferrofluid ferrohydrodynamics in uniform and non-uniform rotating magnetic fields through modeling and measurements of ferrofluid torque and spin-up flow profiles. To characterize the water-based and oil-based ferrofluids used in the experiments, measurements were made of the mass density, surface tension, viscosity, magnetization curve, nanoparticle size, and the speed of sound. Initial analysis for planar Couette and Poiseuille flows exploit DC magnetic field effects on flow and spin velocities with zero spin viscosity. Above critical values of magnetic field strength and flow velocity, multiple values of magnetic field, spin velocity, and effective magnetoviscosity result, indicating that zero spin viscosity may be non-physical. Torque and spin-up flow profile measurements show the effect of volume torque density and body force density in uniform and non-uniform rotating magnetic fields.
(cont.) Ferrofluid "negative viscosity" measurements in uniform and non-uniform rotating magnetic fields occur when magnetic field induced flow creates torque that exceeds the torque necessary to drive a viscometer spindle. Numerical simulations of torque and spin-up flow in uniform and non-uniform rotating magnetic fields, including contribution from the spin velocity and spin viscosity terms, are fitted to measurements to estimate the value ranges of relaxation time r - 1.3-30 gs and spin viscosity n' - 1-11.8x109 Nos in waterbased ferrofluid. Based on the ferrohydrodynamic theory and models, theory of the complex magnetic susceptibility tensor is derived, which depends on spin velocity, that can be a key to external magnetic field control of ferrofluid biomedical applications. Preliminary impedance analysis and measurements investigate complex magnetic susceptibility change of ferrofluid in oscillating and rotating uniform magnetic fields and allow calculation of the resulting dissipated power or mechanical work in pumping fluid.

Full textThe thesis is submitted to obtain a scientific degree of Doctor of Philosophy, specialty 141 – Electricity, electronics and electrical engineering – National Technical University "Kharkiv Polytechnic Institute", Kharkiv, 2020. The object of research are inductors of rotating magnetic field for technological operation of various substances. The subject of research are electromagnetic parameters and characteristics of inductors of rotating magnetic field. The dissertation is dedicated to solve actual scientific task of the design analysis development of electromagnetic parameters and characteristics of rotating magnetic field inductors for various substances technological operation. The introduction substantiates the relevance of the research tasks, shows the relationship of the work with scientific programs, plans, themes, provides scientific novelty and the practical significance of the results was formulated. In the first section, it is established that the existing methods for designing rotating magnetic field inductors based on the stator of a three-phase asynchronous motor are based on calculations of the magnetic field in the ideal idle mode and do not use numerical methods, which, as presented in the thesis, allow calculating the characteristics of the inductor in the load mode at the presence of ferromagnetic elements in its working chamber and give significant progress in the possibilities of designing and improving their design. The second chapter shows that the application of the quasi-three-dimensional mathematical model of the inductor, that was based on the method of plane-orthogonal calculated models, that combines the magnetic fields of the transverse and longitudinal sections of the inductor, allows us to analyze the distributions of magnetic induction in the transverse and longitudinal sections and to show fully its three-dimensional character. Based on the numerical-field calculations of rotating magnetic field the calculation methodology was presented in order to analyze the effect of shortening the stator winding of the inductor on its electromagnetic parameters. The proposed calculation methodology of the magnetic loss power based on the RMS maximums value of the magnetic induction module, that turned out to be universal from the point of view various geometric shapes of the toothed-groove structure and the stator yoke, because it doesn't need require simplifications of the design models geometry of these parts of the construction design. The third chapter deals with the inductor load angle that corresponds to the angle of rotation of the magnetic field and it was defined for the first time, but turns out that the inductor load angle two times less than the phase angle of the inductor winding currents. It turns out that the period of the angular torque characteristic two times less than the period of the inductor winding currents, which corresponds to the classical ideas about the angular functions of the reactive torque of electrical machines. Eventually, it allows to classify the considered inductor, together with the anisotropic magnetic environment in the working chamber, to the class of reluctance synchronous machines, and specifically, motors. The accounting method of the magnetic anisotropy of the inductor working chamber in dependence to concentration of ferromagnetic elements in it was proposed. It allows to obtain a mathematical model for determining the quantitative and phase correlations of its electromagnetic values in the load mode: magnetic induction, magnetic flux linkage, EMF, current voltage of the stator winding, and the electromagnetic torque in the working chamber. The presented methodology which is based on numerical calculations of magnetic fields, allows organizing an iterative process for the computational analysis of the characteristics of the inductor, that operates with a variable load at a stable current or supply voltage of its winding. By the test calculations it was found, that in the area of constant operation in terms of energy, the inductor is characterized by a sufficiently high efficiency and a very low power factor. During the comparison of the inductor angular characteristics, it was found that the more rational for the inductor working is the voltage stabilization mode, which in the desired working range of the load angle up to 25° provides the best electrical, magnetic, power and energy parameters. The current method for monitoring the concentration of ferromagnetic elements in the working chamber of the inductor during its operation was proposed. The practical calculations have shown that this method is more sensitive and doesn't require a complication of the inductor design in comparison with the alternative monitoring method using measuring coils. Observing the winding current of the inductor allows us to control the filling with ferromagnetic elements of its working chamber without interrupting the working process. It allows to replenish the working chamber in time with such elements and thereby maintain the technological operation of various substances on a given level, which are passed through this chamber. In the fourth chapter experimental studies of the inductor physical model are presented and it confirmed the results of mathematical modeling of the electromagnetic processes of the inductor in the no-load mode and in the operate mode.
