Modelling External Magnetic Fields of Magnetite Particles: From Micro- to Macro-Scale

We determine the role of particle shape in the type of magnetic extraction processes used in mining. We use a micromagnetic finite element method (FEM) to analyze the effect of external magnetic fields on the magnetic structures of sub-micron magnetite particles. In non-saturating fields, the magnet...
