In this paper, permanent magnets were used to remove magnetic sludge in the condenser of the power plant. To obtain the flow characteristics and magnetic information that are needed for determining a proper design of the magnetics sludge removal apparatus, numerical simulations were performed through the use of two commercial codes, ANSYS Workbench-Emag and CFX. Experiments were also performed on various kinds and sizes of magnets to obtain the magnetic information through a gauss meter. By analyzing the results of simulations and experiments, the minimum magnetic force that is able to remove the any size of the magnetic sludge in the condenser was calculated, and the design of the removal apparatus was confirmed. The test model which was confirmed by simulations and experiments was made. After testing, the test results were compared with those of numerical simulations and have good agreements.
