A new miniaturized engine based on thermomagnetic effect of magnetic fluids
Atlas use: this paper is cited as evidence by 3 claims and 1 named pathway. Not yet checked against Crossref.
A permanent NdFeB magnet, a kerosene-based temperature-sensitive magnetic fluid and a rotor: the rotor is driven by the thermomagnetic convection of the fluid in the field; peak angular velocity about 2.1 rad/min, rising with heat input and falling heat-sink temperature (abstract).
