An electromagnetic arrayed pump to create arbitrary velocity profiles in fluid

Abstract The present paper is conducted to develop a new structure of an electromagnetic pump capable of controlling the magnetic field in a rectangular channel. Common electromagnetic pumps do not create uniform velocity profiles in the cross-section of the channel. In these pumps, an M-shape profi...
