Description
In this work, a permanent magnet EM flow meter for liquid Li at an operating temperature of 230 [C] is studied. Numerical calibration has been carried out using the results of 3D magnetic field calculations, applying them in the solid-body MHD flow approximation to the pipe, given an empirical, axisymmetric velocity profile. As a result, the potential difference and EM force are calculated depending on the flow rate. Numerical results are compared with experiment using InGaSn alloy and good agreement is obtained.
