Effects of Non-Axisymmetric Magnetization Force on Natural Convection of Water at Various Off-Centered Positions in Superconducting Magnet: Numerical Computation Studies

摘要

Hydrodynamic equations including the effect of magnetization force were solved numerically to determine the natural convection of water in a shallow, cylindrical vessel set up at off-centered positions in a superconducting magnet. The magnetization convection varied considerably when the vessel location became eccentric, influenced by the non-axisymmetric distribution of magnetization force. A proper way of installing a vessel in the magnet is discussed to make the best use of magnetization force.
