Publication number: 20230130402Abstract: Disclosed are a method and an apparatus for designing a magnetic shielding apparatus and a magnetic shielding apparatus. The method includes: determining a region of interest inside the magnetic shielding apparatus, the region of interest being a region where a magnetic shielding effect is expected to be achieved, and the magnetic shielding apparatus including N layers of shields disposed in a nested manner; determining a complete parameter set; and obtaining, based on the complete parameter set, a set of result parameters for describing the geometric structure, the set of result parameters that enables magnetic flux density in the region of interest to meet a preset threshold. This method not only greatly improves optimized magnetic shielding performance compared with an equal-spacing solution, but also resolves a problem that an analytical method cannot be used to optimize a magnetic shielding apparatus with a non-concentric structure.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 16, 2022Publication date: April 27, 2023Applicants: Peking University, Beijing QuanMag Healthcare Co.
