Vertical flow of liquid metal in cylindrical and hexahedral vessels driven by a helical magnetic field was investigated in the experiments.The helical magnetic field was constructed with several pieces of permanent magnets magnetizing in the radius direction.The vertical velocity distribution of liquid GaInSn alloy was measured with ultrasonic Doppler velocimeter(UDV).The axial flow resulted from the competition of the large vertical vortex driven by traveling magnetic field and the secondary flow driven by the rotating magnetic field.The axial stirring effect greatly decreased when the secondary flow occurred.
