Experimental observation of proton-induced shocks and magneto-fluid-dynamics in liquid metal

چکیده
A liquid metal target is one of the options for the pion production target of a n-factory. The interaction between a liquid metal and a proton beam were observed with static mercury as well as with a free mercury jet and up to 4 10 protons/bunch. The experimental method for investigating the magneto-fluid-dynamic effects of a high-velocity liquid metal in a high magnetic field magnet has been validated by recording the behaviour of a 15 m=s mercury burst entering the gradient of a 13 T solenoid at GHMFL Grenoble. The paper includes the description of the optical read-out system as well as numerical results of the mercury drop velocities. r 2003 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.

In this research, the effect of friction between the liquid metal and the sand mould wall and the effect of passage of liquid through a vertical bend and through a ceramic filter on the fluid flow and the melt velocity has been studied by measuring the velocity of the melt and direct observation of the liquid flow through the different parts of a naturally-pressurized running system. The fricti...
