The Magnetic Field

A continuum two-phase fluid-particle model accounting for particle-phase stresses and a body force due to the presence of a magnetic field is developed and applied to the problem of two-dimensional laminar hydromagnetic flow of a particulate suspension over a horizontal surface in the presence of a gravity field. Analytical solutions for the velocity distributions and the skin-friction coefficients of both phases are reported. Two cases of wall hydrodynamic (velocity) conditions corresponding to stationary and oscillatory velocity distributions are considered. Numerical evaluations of the analytical solutions are performed and the results are reported graphically to elucidate special features of the solutions. The effects of the particle-phase stresses and the magnetic field are illustrated through representative results for the horizontal velocity profiles, fluid-phase displacement thickness, and the complete skin-friction coefficient for various combinations of the physical parameters. It is found that the presence of the magnetic field increases the fluid-phase skin-friction coefficient for various particulate volume fraction levels while the presence of the particle-phase viscous stresses reduces it for various particle-to-fluid density ratios.

In this study, we investigate the convective flow of a micropolar hybrid nanofluid through a vertical radiating permeable plate in a saturated porous medium. The impact of the presence or absence of the internal heat generation (IHG) in the medium is examined as well as the impacts of the magnetic field and thermal radiation. We apply similarity transformations to the non-dimensionalized equations and render them as a system of non-linear ODEs (Ordinary Differential Equations) subject to appropriate boundary conditions. This system of non-linear ODEs is solved by an adaptive mesh transformation Chebyshev differential quadrature method. The influence of the governing parameters on the temperature, microrotation and velocity is examined. The skin friction coefficient and the Nusselt number are tabulated. We determine that the skin friction coefficient and heat transport rate increase with the increment in the magnetic field. Moreover, the increment in the micropolarity and nanoparticle volume fraction enhances the skin friction coefficient and the Nusselt number. We also conclude that the IHG term improved the flow of the hybrid nanofluid. Finally, our results indicate that employing a hybrid nanofluid increases the heat transfer compared with that in pure water and a nanofluid.

In this paper, the unsteady flow of a dusty viscous incompressible electrically conducting non-Newtonian power-law fluid through a circular pipe is investigated. A constant pressure gradient in the axial direction and a uniform magnetic field directed perpendicular to the flow direction are applied. The particle phase is assumed to behave as a viscous fluid. A numerical solution is obtained for the governing nonlinear momentum equations using finite differences. The effects of the magnetic-field parameter Ha, the non-Newtonian fluid characteristics (the flow index n), and the particle-phase viscosity β on the transient behavior of the velocity, volumetric flow rates, and skin friction coefficients of both fluid and particle phases are studied. It is found that all the flow parameters for both phases decrease as the magnetic field increases or the flow index decreases. On the other hand, increasing the particle-phase viscosity increases the skin friction of the particle phase, but decreases the other flow parameters. PACS No.: 47.50.+d

Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to investigate the MHD boundary layer flow of viscous, incompressible and electrically conducting fluid near a stagnation-point on a vertical surface with slip. Design/methodology/approach – In the study, the temperature of the surface and the velocity of the external flow are assumed to vary linearly with the distance from the stagnation-point. The governing differential equations are transformed into systems of ordinary differential equations and solved numerically by a shooting method. Findings – The effects of various parameters on the heat transfer characteristics are discussed. Graphical results are presented for the velocity and temperature profiles whilst the skin-friction coefficient and the rate of heat transfers near the surface are presented. It is observed that the presence of the magnetic field increases the skin-friction coefficient and the rate of heat transfer near the surface towards the stagnation-point. Originality/value – The presence of magnetic field increases the skin-friction coefficient and the rate of heat transfer near the surface towards the stagnation-point.

Turbulence measurements under the influence of a transverse magnetic field have been made at Purdue University's Magneto-Fluid-Mechanic Laboratory in a high aspect ratio channel. The Reynolds number range covered was 25000 ≤ Re 282000; the geometry and experimental conditions were such that the experiment approximated turbulent Hartmann flow. The aspect ratio of the channel was 5·8:1, its walls were electrically insulated and the working fluid was mercury. Measurements in the presence of a magnetic field were made of the skin friction coefficient, the mean velocity profiles, the turbulence intensity profiles (both u’ and v’) and the Reynolds stress profiles.A sudden change in the damping of the Reynolds stresses was manifested by a ‘hump’ in the curves of Cf versus M/Re taken with the Reynolds number held constant. This ‘hump’ occurs as a gentle rise and sudden drop to the Hartmann laminar line of the Cf data. Close examination of the $\overline{u^{\prime}v^{\prime}}$ data near the wall confirms this behaviour, indicating that the turbulent contribution to the shear stress is the controlling factor in this behaviour of Cf. The Reynolds stresses were completely suppressed to zero at high values of the magnetic field, though the turbulence intensities of u’ and v’ were not. The Reynolds stress data are fundamental in revealing the mechanisms which are at work during the suppression of turbulence by a magnetic field.It was also found that at high magnetic fields, when most of the turbulence was damped, the skin friction coefficient fell below the values predicted by Hartmann's (1937) laminar solution for high values of M/Re. This result was linked to the presence of ‘M-shaped’ velocity profiles in the direction perpendicular to both the magnetic field and the mean velocity vector. The presence of ‘M-shaped’ profiles has not previously been linked to a reduction in Cf.

Aligned Magnetic Field

The aim of the present study is to analyze the effects of aligned magnetic field and radiation on biomagnetic fluid flow and heat transfer over an unsteady stretching sheet with various slip conditions. The magnetic field is assumed to be sufficiently strong enough to saturate the ferrofluid, and the variation of magnetization is approximated by a linear function of temperature difference. The governing boundary layer equations with boundary conditions are simplified by suitable transformations. Numerical solution is obtained by using the bvp4c function technique in MATLAB software. The numerical results are derived for the velocity, temperature, the skin friction coefficient, and the rate of heat transfer. The evaluated results are compared with analytical study documented in scientific literature. The present investigation illustrates that the fluid velocity is decreased with the increasing values of radiation parameter, magnetic parameter, and ferromagnetic interaction parameter, though is increased as the Prandtl number, Grashof number, permeable parameter and thermal slip parameter are increased. In this investigation, the suction/injection parameter had a good impact on the skin friction coefficient and the rate of heat transfer.

The dynamic properties of nanofluids have made them an area of intense research during the past few decades. In this article, flow of nonaligned stagnation point nanofluid is investigated. Copper–water based nanofluid in the presence of temperature-dependent viscosity is taken into account. The governing nonlinear coupled ordinary differential equations transformed by partial differential equations are solved numerically by using fourth-order Runge–Kutta–Fehlberg integration technique. Effects of variable viscosity parameter on velocity and temperature profiles of pure fluid and copper–water nanofluid are analyzed, discussed, and presented graphically. Streamlines, skin friction coefficients, and local heat flux of nanofluid under the impact of variable viscosity parameter, stretching ratio, and solid volume fraction of nanoparticles are also displayed and discussed. It is observed that an increase in solid volume fraction of nanoparticles enhances the magnitude of normal skin friction coefficient, tangential skin friction coefficient, and local heat flux. Viscosity parameter is found to have decreasing effect on normal and tangential skin friction coefficients whereas it has a positive influence on local heat flux.

The Magnetic Field

In this paper, the energy eigenvalues of the two dimensional hydrogen atom are presented for the arbitrary Larmor frequencies by using the asymptotic iteration method. We first show the energy eigenvalues for the case with no magnetic field analytically, and then we obtain the energy eigenvalues for the strong and weak magnetic field cases within an iterative approach for n=2-10 and m=0-1 states for several different arbitrary Larmor frequencies. The effect of the magnetic field on the energy eigenvalues is determined precisely. The results are in excellent agreement with the findings of the other methods and our method works for the cases where the others fail.
