Abstract Scope |
Attainability of large alternating magnetic field (AMF) heating rates is essential for a magnetic fluid to be used in various applications that require localized heating in a controllable manner. Cancer thermotherapy which entails elevating the temperature of tumor region to 42-46 °C, and attaining reflow in lead free alloys to be used as solders in the electronic packaging industry are a few target applications. The AMF heating efficiency of a magnetic nanoparticle (MNP) depends on its size, magnetic anisotropy and saturation magnetization. In this study, we discuss several intrinsic and extrinsic factors that determine the heating efficacy of a magnetic fluid by developing a computational model using Finite Element Method. A simulation guided understanding of the AMF heating will help to determine the optimum concentrations needed to achieve the desired temperature range, as well as to assess various MNP types for the aforementioned biomedical and energy applications. |
