Electromagnetic levitation is a kind of magnetohydrodynamic phenomena which is useful to measure the thermo-physical properties of pure metals under high temperature. However, this phenomenon is complicated and detailed mechanisms of this phenomenon have not been clarified yet. This study proposes the meshless method based on weighted least square method for the analysis of electromagnetic levitation. In this study, the fluid motion equation and the magnetic field equation are coupled by this method. The behavior of a molten metal under highfrequency magnetic field is calculated by this method.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
