Deep rock mass theory has not yet been completely established, which leads to a lack of theoretical guidance for deep resource development and poor continuity among engineering activities. The foundation of deep rock mechanics theory is to achieve the deep in situ rock fidelity coring (including the retaining of the pore pressure and temperature). To realize this, pressure-retaining coring technology is required. A self-triggered pressure-retaining controller based on magnetic control is proposed in this paper. The pressure-retaining controller realizes pressure-retaining coring in any direction by triggering the closure of the valve cover by a magnetic force, forming a magnetic seal. Fifteen combined magnetic circuit design schemes are proposed. The magnetic flux density norm distribution and magnetic force evolution law of different schemes are then quantitatively analyzed by the finite element method. The results show that a complex magnetization combination can weaken the nonlinear negative correlation between the magnetic force and distance. The optimal design of the valve seat magnetic circuit is Scheme 9, with the valve seat consisting of four shape identical tile magnets. Among the schemes, for Scheme 9, the magnetic flux density norm of the valve cover is the most concentrated. The maximum magnetic flux density norm is in the middle, and the magnetic force at 35 mm from the valve cover to the valve seat is 2.915 N. Scheme 9 satisfies the minimum condition of the mechanical model and verifies the feasibility of magnetic field triggering. This research can be used to gain a better understanding of deep Earth properties and provides technology for the improved design of deep in situ pressure-retaining coring devices.

The Magnetic Field

This paper presents a mathematical modeling of a modified voice coil generator, which consists of a moving coil within a fixed magnetic circuit. The simulation has been done with Comsol Multiphysics software, which is a powerful tool to demonstrate the pattern of magnetic field and calculate the induced current in the coil. In our simulations, the magnetic circuit consists of the magnetic conductor and the air gap. In this analysis, the magnetic flux density and the magnetic field intensity are calculated. Moreover, through calculation of the total reluctance of the magnetic circuit and employing the ohm’s law for magnetic circuits, the effect of the length and cross section of the total circuit on the magnetic flux are investigated. Finally, a pattern for the magnetic flux density are demonstrated and the simulation result indicates that the magnetic field is well concentrated on the coil area, therefore this prototype can capture and convert most of the kinetic energy to electricity. A prototype has been fabricated and tested on the shaker. The experimental results indicate that this setup is able to produce the maximum voltage of 0.326 V and the peak power equal to 2.605 mW in 35 Hz frequency and 1 mm peak to peak amplitude.

Abstract SPT-100 electrostatic thruster is considered, and the effects of magnetic circuit is studied by introducing magnetic screen. The magnetic flux density in the discharge channel is generated with the help of one inner coil and four outer coils. The radial magnetic field has to be maximum near the exit plane of the thruster to trap the electrons in acceleration region which are emitted from an external hollow cathode. These electrons help in increasing the ionization rate of the propellant gas. This is obtained by placing magnetic poles near exit plane. It helps to traps the electrons emitted from the external hollow cathode. The magnetic circuit should be designed such that the magnetic flux density is near to zero at the anode plane to reduce interaction of electrons with channel walls. To arrive at such better design, magnetic screens are used. Computational simulations are performed to quantify the magnetic flux density distribution along the channel using COMSOL Multiphysics software. The simulation results show that the obtained radial magnetic flux density is maximum near the exit plane, and the magnetic screens help in reducing the magnetic field at the anode region while maintaining the maximum magnetic field at the exit plane.

Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to evaluate the performance of the semi-active fluid damper. It is recognized that the performance of such a damper depends upon the magnetic and hydraulic circuit design. These dampers are generally used to control the vibrations in various applications in machine tools and robots. The present paper deals with the design of magneto-rheological (MR) damper. A finite element model is built to analyze and understand the performance of a 2D axi-symmetric MR damper. Various configurations of damper with modified piston ends are investigated. The input current to the coil and the piston velocity are varied to evaluate the resulting change in magnetic flux density (B), magnetic field (H), field dependent yield stress and magnetic force vectors. The simulation results of the various configurations of damper show that higher magnetic force is associated with plain piston ends. The performance of filleted piston ends is superior to that of other configurations for the same magnitude of coil current and piston velocity. Design/methodology/approach – The damper design is done based on the fact that mechanical energy required for yielding of MR fluid increases with increase in applied magnetic field intensity. In the presence of magnetic field, the MR fluid follows Bingham’s plastic flow model, given by the equation τ = η γ•+τ y (H) τ > τ y . The above equation is used to design a device which works on the basis of MR fluid. The total pressure drop in the damper is evaluated by summing the viscous component and yield stress component which is approximated as ΔP = 12ηQL/g3W + CτyL/g, where the value of the parameter, C ranges from a minimum of 2 (for ΔPτ ΔPη less than approximately 1) to a maximum of 3 (for ΔPτ/ΔPη greater than approximately 100). To calculate the change in pressure on either side of the piston within the cylinder, yield stress is required which is obtained from the graph of yield stress vs magnetic field intensity provided by Lord Corporation for MR fluid −132 DG. Findings – In this work, three different finite element models of MR damper piston are analyzed. The regression equations, contour plots and surface plots are obtained for different parameters. This study can be used as a reference for selecting the parameters for meeting different requirements. It is observed from the simulation of these models that the plain ends model gave optimum magnetic force and 2D flux lines with respect to damper input current. This is due to the fact that the plain ends model has more area when compared with that of other models. It is also observed that filleted ends model gave optimum magnetic flux density and yield stress. As there is reduced pole length in the filleted ends model, the MR fluid occupies vacant area, and hence results in increased flux density and yield shear stress. The filleted ends assist the formation of dense magnetic flux lines thereby increasing the flux density and yield stress. This implies that higher load can be carried by the filleted ends damper even with a smaller size. Originality/value – This work is carried out to manufacture different capacities of the dampers. This can be applied as vibration controls.

The Magnetic Field

In the linear and planar motors, the 1D Halbach magnet array is extensively used. The sinusoidal property of the magnetic field deteriorates by analyzing the magnetic field at a small air gap. Therefore, a new 1D Halbach magnet array is proposed, in which the permanent magnet with a curved surface is applied. Based on the superposition of principle and Fourier series, the magnetic flux density distribution is derived. The optimized curved surface is obtained and fitted by a polynomial. The sinusoidal magnetic field is verified by comparing it with the magnetic flux density of the finite element model. Through the analysis of different dimensions of the permanent magnet array, the optimization result has good applicability. The force ripple can be significantly reduced by the new magnet array. The effect on the mass and air gap is investigated compared with a conventional magnet array with rectangular permanent magnets. In conclusion, the new magnet array design has the scalability to be extended to various sizes of motor and is especially suitable for small air gap applications.

A mathematical model was developed to describe the oscillating amplitude of the plasma arc injected transverse to an external transverse alternating magnetic field. The characteristic of plasma arc under the external transverse alternating magnetic field imposed perpendicular to the plasma current was discussed. The effect of processing parameters, such as flow rate of working gas, arc current, magnetic flux density and the standoff from the nozzle to the workpiece, on the oscillation of plasma arc were also analyzed. The results show that it is feasible to adjust the shape of the plasma arc by the transverse alternating magnetic field, which expands the region of plasma arc thermal treatment upon the workpiece. Furthermore, the oscillating amplitude of plasma arc decreases with decrease of the magnetic flux density. Under the same magnetic flux density, more gas flow rate, more arc current, and less standoff cause the oscillating amplitude to decrease. The researches have provided a deeper understanding of adjusting of plasma arc characteristics.

Field Cycling

This paper describes an innovative solution for the power supply of a fast field cycling (FFC) nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectrometer considering its low power consumption, portability and low cost. In FFC cores, the magnetic flux density must be controlled in order to perform magnetic flux density cycles with short transients, while maintaining the magnetic flux density levels with high accuracy and homogeneity. Typical solutions in the FFC NMR literature use current control to get the required magnetic flux density cycles, which correspond to an indirect magnetic flux density control. The main feature of this new relaxometer is the direct control of the magnetic flux density instead of the magnet current, in contrast with other equipment available in the market. This feature is a great progress because it improves the performance. With this solution it is possible to compensate magnetic field disturbances and parasitic magnetic fields guaranteeing, among other possibilities, a field control below the earth magnetic field. Experimental results validating the developed solution and illustrating the real operation of this type of equipment are shown.

In this paper, PDMS membrane for a large displacement is fabricated by new fabrication process which can be integrated with electrical components on substrates fabricated by conventional microfabrication processes and the performance of the membrane using electromagnetism was evaluated. Rectangular PDMS membranes are designed as 2mm and 3mm in width, respectively and are actuated by Lorentz force induced by current paths spread on the membrane. The PDMS membrane is fabricated by reducing a viscosity of uncured PDMS with dilution and spin coating on the substrate on which electric components generating Lorentz force. Finally, PDMS membrane including electric components is opened by a bulk micromachining. The device is tested in magnetic field induced by Nd-Fe-B magnet whose magnetic flux density is 90G. When applied currents are 20, 25, and 30mA, the maximum deflections of membranes are 1.21, 3.07, and 20.2μm for 1.5mm width membrane and 3.34, 31.0, and 50.9μm for width 3mm membrane, respectively. The large displacement PDMS membrane actuator has potentially various applications such as fluidics, optics, acoustics, and electronics. Currently, we are planning to measure the optical performance of the actuator as a focal tunable liquid lens.

The Magnetic Field

Abstract In this paper we proposed a platform for measuring shear force of magnetorheological (MR) fluid by which the relationship of yield stress and magnetic flux density of specific material can be determined. The device consisted of a rotatable center tube in a frame body and the magnetic field was provided by two blocks of permanent magnets placed oppositely outside the frame body. The magnitude and direction of the magnetic field were manipulated by changing the distance of the two permanent magnets from the frame body and rotating the center tube, respectively. For determining the magnetic field of the device, we adopted an effective method by fitting the FEM (finite element method) result to the measured one and then rebuilt the absent components to approximate the magnetic field, which was hardly to be measured simultaneously as different device setup were required. With the proposed platform and analytical methods, the drawing shear force and the corresponding yield stress contributed by MR fluid could be evaluated in respect to the magnitude and direction of given magnetic flux density with acceptable accuracy for specific designing purposes without a large, complex, and expensive instrument.
