Abstract

Today, a physical problem of engineering design of inertial magnetic fluid accelerometers to measure dynamic processes is relevant. The main drawback of modern sensors is the nonlinear characteristic of the forced response, which limits the application area of the sensors to the case of quasi-static action (tilt angle sensor). The reason of nonlinearity is the design of the magneto-mechanical system of the elastic suspension of the inertial mass made in the form of a pair of permanent ring magnets. This drawback can be eliminated by designing an axisymmetric electromagnetic system that generates a magnetic field with a linear intensity gradient along the symmetry axis. Thus, the paper is devoted to this problem and experimental approvement of the results on a laboratory sensor prototype. The Monte Carlo algorithm is used to calculate electromagnetic system containing permanent magnets and magnetizing coils. The algorithm is implemented using the C++ programming language. Measurements of the most important parameters of the magnetic field from the point of view of the purpose of the study are carried out on the assembled model of the electromagnetic system of the accelerometer. The calculation of electromagnetic system that generate permanent magnetic field with linear intensity gradient along the symmetry axis is carried out. The applicability of the Monte Carlo method to solve similar engineering problems is shown. The measurements of the magnetic field strength of a given configuration have been made. The force of the magnetic field acting on the test sensitive element with a constant magnetic moment is measured. A comparison of the calculated magnetic field with the field of a real system is carried out. It shows satisfactory agreement between the calculated data and the real ones. A linear dependence of the restoring force on the displacement coordinate of a body with a constant magnetic moment from the equilibrium position is shown. The linearization of the response of the mechanical part of the magnetic fluid accelerometer is achieved by choosing the desired configuration of its electromagnetic system, which allows making reliable measurements of both static and dynamic quantities.
