Mathematical model of orientation of a ferromagnetic particle in magnetic field
Abstract
A mathematical model of the rotational motion of a particle with pronounced ferromagnetic properties, due to the moment of forces from the side of an external homogeneous magnetic field is deduced in the article. The basis of the model is the equation for the moment of forces effecting on a solid body. The driving torque is the magnetic moment, calculated through the strength of the external field and the magnetization of the material. The counter–torque is the moment of medium resistance, which mainly depends on the viscosity of the medium in which the simulated body is located. The dependences of the angle of rotation and angular velocity on time are determined. The mathematical model is represented as a system of differential equations. The developed mathematical model was solved by a Runge – Kutta fourth order method. The obtained results are presented in the form of graphs.
