Abstract

1. A study was made of the influence of a traveling magnetic field on the filtration of an electrically conducting liquid (Wood's alloy) into a porous sintered material. It is shown that, in the absence of a magnetic field, filtration does not take place; to make filtration possible, it is necessary to superimpose a traveling field, i.e., add electromagnetic forces to the force of gravity. 2. The draining of the same conducting liquid from a mixture of a copper powder with Wood's alloy was studied and it was established qualitatively that the draining increases in intensity with increasing magnetic induction. In the absence of magnetic induction, no draining occurs. 3. The phenomena described may be utilized for intensifying the impregnation of porous materials with electrically conducting liquids, as well as in investigations of the magnetic hydrodynamics of liquids in porous media.
