Simulation of Magnetophoretic Separation Processes in Dispersions of Superparamagnetic Nanoparticles in the Noncooperative Regime
Figure 2
Magnetophoretic separation of superparamagnetic γ-Fe2O3 NPs of diameter 12 nm inside a 30 T/m magnetic separator. Comparison between the simulations performed here, the analytical solution and the experimental results reported in [17] for the evolution of the fraction of particles remaining in the separator. Inset: sketch (top view) of the magnetic separator.
