TRANSVERSE HIGH-GRADIENT MAGNETIC FILTER CELL WITH BOUNDED FLOW-FIELD

The capture of fine paramagnetic particles from a fluid suspension in a magnetic filter element of a novel design is analyzed, Unlike the sy stems previously analyzed, in our model the how is bounded by two by t wo parallel planar plates, and the ferromagnetic wires are installed o utside these spaces, within planes parallel with the plates, Our analy sis is based on the study of particle trajectories, considering the la minar flow of carrier fluid, From these we establish the conditions fo r the maximum recovery of the particles in suspension. This study is u seful in designing magnetic filter batteries with corrosion-protected ferromagnetic wires.
