ENERGY BALANCE OF A MECHANICAL METHOD FOR DEMAGNETIZING PERMANENT MAGNETS

Abstract

Permanent magnets can be destroyed by certain improper mechanical manipulations that demagnetize them, reducing their induction and, consequently, their internal energy. This assay presents a cyclic mechanical manipulation of double action, evaluating the energy balance of the mechanical and magnetic forces involved throughout the whole procedure, noting a small release of energy from the magnet in the form of mechanical work.
