Abstract
An NMR device that includes (i) a first fluid conduit that includes a measurement region and is configured to convey fluid, (ii) an NMR measurement unit that is configured to perform an NMR measurement of the fluid within the measurement region; wherein the NMR measurement unit comprises a permanent magnet; and (iii) a temperature control unit that is configured to thermally shield the permanent magnet, during the NMR measurement, from a temperature of the fluid within measurement region.
Claims19
A nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) device, comprising:
- a first fluid conduit that comprises a measurement region and is configured to convey a first fluid;
- an NMR measurement unit that is configured to perform an NMR measurement of the first fluid within the measurement region;
- wherein the NMR measurement unit comprises a permanent magnet;
- and
- a temperature control unit that is configured to thermally shield the permanent magnet, during the NMR measurement, from a temperature of the first fluid within measurement region, wherein the temperature control unit comprises a second fluid conduit that is configured to convey a second fluid, the second fluid conduit surrounds the first fluid conduit and is made of a thermally insulating material.
A method for nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) measurements, the method comprising:
- conveying a first fluid by a first fluid conduit that comprises a measurement region;
- performing, by an NMR measurement unit, an NMR measurement of the first fluid within the measurement region;
- wherein the NMR measurement unit comprises a permanent magnet;
- and
- thermally shielding, during the NMR measurement and by a temperature control unit, the permanent magnet from a temperature of the fluid within measurement region, wherein the thermally shielding comprises conveying a second fluid through a second fluid conduit, the second fluid conduit surrounds the first fluid conduit and is made of a thermally insulating material.
