Thermoelectric magnetic force acting on the solid during directional solidification under a static magnetic field

2012 
Thermoelectric magnetic force (TEMF), which is induced by the interaction between the thermoelectric current and the applied magnetic field, acting on the solid during directional solidification under a static magnetic field was derived. Equipping the derived equation, an analytical calculation of the velocity of a solid spherical particle submitted to the TEMF was carried out. The experiment with corresponding phenomenon was performed and recorded by the in situ synchrotron X-ray imaging, which permitted a direct measurement of the velocity of the TEMF-driven motion of detached fragments. The measurement of the velocities showed a reasonable agreement with the calculation results.
