Multi purpose Magnet Field System

The MULTIMAG (MULTIpurpose MAGnetic field system) facility can be used for the research on ­magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) phenomena.MULTIMAG can be used to combine rotating, travelling, pulsating and static ­magnetic fields. Because no ferro­magnetic materials are used, any linear superposition of various field types is possible.
