Abstract

Using a rotating HGMS ordered matrix in a quasi-transversal configuration, experiments have been performed to study the dependence of the captured mass m_s on the angle α between the direction of the applied field H₀ and the ferromagnetic wires. The ordered dependence of m_s on α registered experimentally reveals the possibility to successively separate a granular mixture by an adequate choice of the inclination angles (angular steps) without modifying the applied field H₀ or the average flow velocity v_a. Relationships were derived connecting the magnetic susceptibilities of the mixture components with the inclination angle α in order to accomplish such a separation in angular steps
