Abstract
In this work, we study rotating permanent magnet based liquid metal pump. Full 3D model of the pump is created and different approaches to electromagnetic force computation are investigated. First, we seek a possibility to model the permanent magnet block consisting of many separate magnets as a single block with equivalent analytically prescribed magnetization. Second, different approaches regarding coupling of electromagnetic field to fluid dynamics simulation are considered. Main results show that for pump integral parameter calculation, time-dependent coupling is not necessary, although it can lead to different velocity and turbulent structure distribution in the channel.
