Performance Analysis of a Diagonal MHD Accelerator for Space Propulsion

The performance of a diagonal magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) accelerator has been numerically investigated. Studies were carried out using air plasma as a working gas in an equilibrium condition based on the MHD Augmented Propulsion Experiment channel designed by NASA. The MacCormack scheme is employed in order to solve the set of differential equations with MHD approximations. The fundamental performance of a diagonal MHD accelerator considering both flow performance along the channel and propulsion performance has been evaluated under various applied input currents and magnetic fields. The optimum performance is dominated by ${bf j} times {bf B}$ Lorentz body force acceleration, while it is increased with Joule heating and the ${bf u} times {bf B}$ term's contribution, which are detrimental to the propulsion performance. Moreover, friction forces resist the flow performance, particularly near the channel exit.      

Analysis and experimental validation of an HTS linear synchronous propulsion prototype with HTS magnetic suspension

A high temperature superconducting (HTS) linear propulsion system composed of a single-sided HTS linear synchronous motor (HTSLSM) in its middle and HTS magnetic suspension sub-systems on both sides has been developed. The HTSLSM uses an HTS bulk magnet array on the moving secondary, and the field-trapped characteristics of the HTS bulk using different magnetized methods have been measured and compared to identify their magnetization capability. In order to generate a large levitation force for the system, three different types of permanent magnet guideways (PMGs) have been numerically analyzed and experimentally verified to obtain an optimal PMG. Based on comprehensive experimental prototype tests, the results show that the HTS linear propulsion system can run with stable magnetic suspension having a constant air-gap length, and the thrust characteristics versus the exciting current, working frequency and the air-gap length have also been obtained. This work forms the basis for developing a practical HTS linear propulsion system by using HTS bulks both for propulsion and suspension.     

Segregation behavior of magnetic ions in continuous flowing solution under gradient magnetic field

The research of magnetic separation starts from magnetic solid particles to nanoparticles, and in the research progress,particles become smaller gradually with the development of application of magnetic separation technology. Nevertheless,little experimental study of magnetic separation of molecules and ions under continuous flowing conditions has been reported. In this work, we designed a magnetic device and a "layered" flow channel to study the magnetic separation at the ionic level in continuous flowing solution. A segregation model was built to discuss the segregation behavior as well as the factors that may affect the separation. The magnetic force was proved to be the driving force which plays an indispensable role leading to the segregation and separation. The flow velocity has an effect on the segregation behavior of magnetic ions,which determines the separation result. On the other hand, the optimum flow velocity which makes maximum separation is related to the initial concentration of solution.

2D-PIV analysis of loach motion and flow field

The propulsion methods of the aquatic lives are the results of optimization by evolution and are useful for the design of swimming-robot, etc. Among them, loach has unique propulsion technique both bending its long body and shaking caudal fin. Our purpose of the research is to clarify its swimming mechanism through flow field analysis. Two dimensional motion and flow around it have been experimentally visualized by particle image velocimetry (PIV). Vortices around a loach and the interactions between the loach body and surrounding water are analyzed. Generating and growing vortices by bending its body, it pushes water backward to gain repulsing force, and it seems that moves through vortices reducing the resistance force at the same time. When a vortex reaches to the caudal fin, it accelerates both sides of the vortex pushing water backward and seems gaining propulsion utilizing the caudal fin. After moving forward, loach leaves a vortex street like reverse Karman vortices, which means that loach gains propulsion.     

Flux Capacitors and the Origin of Inertia

The explanation of inertia based on Mach's principle is briefly revisited and an experiment whereby the gravitational origin of inertia can be tested is described. The test consists of detecting a small stationary force with a sensitive force sensor. The force is presumably induced when a periodic transient Mach effect mass fluctuation is driven in high voltage, high energy density capacitors that are subjected to 50 kHz, 1.3 kV amplitude voltage signal, and threaded by an alternating magnetic flux of the same frequency. An effect of the sort predicted is shown to be present in the device tested. It has the expected magnitude and depends on the relative phase of the Mach effect mass fluctuation and the alternating magnetic flux as expected. The observed effect also displays scaling behaviors that are unique to Mach effects. Other tests for spurious signals suggest that the observed effect is real.     

The State of Arts of Hall Thruster

Electric propulsion is broadly defined as the acceleration of a working fluid for propulsion by electrical heating and/or by electric and magnetic body forces. Compared with chemical propulsion, electric propulsion has the characteristic of higher specific impulse, lower thrust, lighter weight and longer lifetime. So electric propulsion is generally suitable for satellite attitude control, the orbit transfer and raising, orbit correction, resistance compensate, position keeping, reposi- tion, space exploration and interplanetary flight.

Thrust enhancement via gel-type liquid confinement of laser ablation of solid metal propellant

Laser propulsion has been developed as a suitable small thruster technology for the attitude control of micro and nano class satellites. Laser-based thrusters meet the satellite design criteria for being of light weight and cost effective, because they do not require fuel storing and oxidizer for combustion. Also, thrust control by laser propulsion is achieved fairly easy. In this paper, we consider the confinement of plasma expansion by a gel-type liquid material, which results in the enhancement of the thrust for propulsion. We also present our attempts to resolve some known issues regarding laser ablation of solid and liquid targets. The level of thrust is quantified via the momentum coupling coefficient, which was experimentally measured using a ballistic pendulum system. We have discovered that the laser ablation confinement by the gel-type medium results in 2.3 times more enhanced driving force as compared to the water confinement. A proof of performance is demonstrated for using gel-type material for generating propulsion, and material characterization for optimal thrust performance is presented.     

Optical magnetoelectric effect in multiferroic materials: evidence for a Lorentz force acting on a ray of light

We theoretically propose that the optical analog of a Lorentz force acting on a ray of light is realized in multiferroic materials such as GaFeO3 showing the magnetoelectric effect. The toroidal moment T --> = sigma(j)r(j) x S(j) plays the role of a "vector potential," while its rotation corresponds to a "magnetic field" for photons. Hence, the light is subject to the Lorentz force when propagating through the domain wall region of the ferromagnetic or ferroelectric order. A realistic estimate on the magnitude of this effect is given.     

Exchange interaction parameters and adiabatic spin-wave spectra of ferromagnets: a "renormalized magnetic force theorem"

The "magnetic force theorem" is frequently used to compute exchange interaction parameters and adiabatic spin-wave spectra of ferromagnets. The interest of this approach is that it allows one to obtain these results from a non-self-consistent calculation of the (single-electron) band energy only, which greatly reduces the computational effort. However, as discussed by various authors, this approach entails some systematic error. Here, a "renormalized magnetic force theorem" allows us to remove this systematic error without significantly increasing the computational effort involved. For systems with one atom per unit cell, it amounts to a simple renormalization of the spin-wave spectrum.     

Magnetic field effects in the Casimir force between two parallel anti-ferromagnetic slabs

We study the Casimir force F$F$ between two parallel anti-ferromagnetic slabs taking into account an external magnetic field in the Voigt configuration. Using a frequency and magnetic field dependent magnetic permeability tensor and a frequency independent dielectric permittivity, to describe the slabs, we calculate the Casimir force using non-normal incidence reflectivity of the electromagnetic waves in the free space between the slabs. We determine the Casimir force by performing two-dimensional calculations. F$F$ is investigated as a function of the layer thickness d$d$, the vacuum gap width L$L$ between slabs, and the external magnetic field strength H$H$. Features of F$F$ as function of the external field include the presence of sharp dips and peaks, which appear in the vicinity of the resonance frequency, and are consequences of the interaction of the external magnetic field with the electron spin. In addition, an external field may diminish F$F$, which is an important effect not found in any other system.

Phenomenological evidence for the phonon Hall effect

In the electrical Hall effect, a magnetic field, applied perpendicular to an electrical current, induces through the Lorentz force a voltage perpendicular to the field and the current. It is generally assumed that an analogous effect cannot exist in the phonon thermal conductivity, as there is no charge transport associated with phonon propagation. In this Letter, we argue that such a magnetotransverse thermal effect should exist and experimentally demonstrate this "phonon Hall effect" in Tb3Ga5O12.     

Magnetically-driven heat transport device using a binary temperature-sensitive magnetic fluid

The magnetic body force in boiling two-phase temperature-sensitive magnetic fluid (TSMF) flow is known to effectively increase the driving force of magnetic fluid in a non-uniform magnetic field. Based on this mechanism, in the present study, a binary TSMF, which is a mixture of the TSMF and a low-boiling-saturation-temperature organic solution, is proposed to be used in a heat transport device to enhance its circulation. In order to see its performance in the heat transport device, the pressure difference at different heated temperatures, magnetic fields and inclination angles of the heating section are investigated experimentally and theoretically. Results showed that the driving force increases remarkably due to more gas phase appearing in the test fluid and the magnetization of it decreasing. At low magnetic field the driving force is enhanced greatly when the inclination angle is close to 60°, while at high magnetic field the driving force is remarkably enhanced due to the effect of the magnetic force in the inclination angle range from 0° to 30° and 60° to 90°.
