Comparative Analysis of the Magnetizing Ability of Devices for Magnetic Water Treatment

The results of the analysis of existing methods of antiscale magnetic water treatment in the thermal power industry and other industries, for example, in the process of water treatment to eliminate scale formation of carbonate, chloride and sulfate hardness salts in pipelines, heat exchange equipment and other related systems are presented. Compared with traditional methods of water softening, magnetic treatment is characterized by technological simplicity and environmental cleanliness. The operational and design features of some devices for magnetic water treatment on permanent and electric magnets and magnetic converters are considered, for the evaluation of the effectiveness of which hydraulic calculations are carried out. For comparative laboratory studies, an experimental plant of magnetic water treatment has been developed with the help of which it is shown that the complex effect of the magnetic field on the treated water is determined by various factors, including: the limits of the change in angles between the directions of flow and magnetic field in the laminar mode, the regularities and effectiveness of the magnetization process in the turbulent mode of movement, the boundaries of the values of the intensity of the constant magnetic field
