Skin Effect of Rotating Magnetic Fields in Liquid Bridge
Journal of Magnetics, Volume 22, Number 2, 30 Jun 2017, Pages 333-343
Abstract
A rotating magnetic field (RMF) Ф1-Ф2 model was developed in consideration of the skin effect. The rotating magnetic field’s induced three-dimensional flow was simulated numerically, and the influence of the skin effect was investigated. The rotating magnetic field drives the rotating convection in the azimuthal direction, and a secondary convection appears in the radial-meridional direction. The results indicate that ignoring the skin effect results in a smaller azimuthal velocity component and larger radial and axial velocity components, and that the deviation becomes more obvious with the larger dimensionless shielding parameter K.
