This work numerically studies the flow pattern of a magnetic fluid filled within an annulus whose inner cylinder is moving at a constant rotational speed, while the outer cylinder is stationary but under the influence of a nonuniform external magnetic field. The magnetic field consists of four basic configurations, that is, completely circular, semicircular, quarter circular, and alternately quarter circular. The strength of the external magnetic field is characterized using a reference Hartmann number. As the reference Hartmann number increases, the fluid elements need to overcome greater resistance to enter the region with magnetic field. Hence, there always exists an apparent recirculation cell within the region without externally applied magnetic field. The strength and size of the recirculation cell depend on the reference Hartmann number, the number and size of the discrete regions without external magnetic field. Only the shear stress on the moving cylinder always increases in magnitude with the reference Hartmann number and the span of the single external magnetic field region. Splitting and separating the external magnetic field may increase the magnitude of the shear stress on the moving inner cylinder but decrease that on the stationary outer cylinder. If the magnitude of the shear stress on the outer cylinder reduces beyond zero, a shear stress in the opposite sense will increase in magnitude with Hartmann number.

The Magnetic Field

This study presents the turbulent flow around two square ribs. The numerical computations performed using k–ε model at Reynolds number (Re) = 60000 to quantify the turbulent transport measures. The magnetic field has been applied by Hartmann number (Ha) to generate the magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) flow. The reduction of recirculation region was observed due to the application of magnetic field in the flow. The weak recirculation has an effect on small vorticity generation, which leads to small turbulent kinetic energy (TKE) and TKE dissipation rate generation in the wake region behind the rib. The induced magnetic field is capable of controlling the vortex structures around the square ribs. Results in decreasing magnitude of turbulence level around and between the spaces of the square ribs. It may be hypothesized that by introducing magnetic field, the unwanted vibrations (due to vortex shedding behind the rib) of fully submerged structures can be controlled.

The aim of the present numerical study is to investigate the effect of thermally active zones and direction of the external magnetic field on hydromagnetic convection in an enclosure. Nine different relative positions of the thermally active zones are considered. Top and bottom of the enclosure are adiabatic. The governing equations are solved by the finite volume method. The results are obtained for different directions of the external magnetic field, thermally active locations, Hartmann numbers, Grashof numbers and aspect ratios. It is observed that the heat transfer is enhanced for heating location is either at middle or at bottom of the hot wall while the cooling location is either at top or at middle of the cold wall. The flow field is altered when changing the direction of the magnetic field in the presence of strong magnetic field. The average Nusselt number decreases with an increase of the Hartmann number and increases with increase of the Grashof number and aspect ratio.

Abstract A numerical investigation on the effects of uniform and non-uniform heating of bottom wall on mixed convective heat transfer in a square porous chamber filled with nanofluid in the appearance of magnetic field is carried out. Uniform or sinusoidal heat source is fixed at the bottom wall. The top wall moves in either positive or negative direction with a constant cold temperature. The vertical sidewalls are thermally insulated. The finite volume approach based on SIMPLE algorithm is followed for solving the governing equations. The different parameters connected with this study are Richardson number (0.01 ≤ Ri ≤ 100), Darcy number (10−4 ≤ Da ≤ 10−1), Hartmann number (0 ≤ Ha ≤ 70), and the solid volume fraction (0.00 ≤ χ ≤ 0.06). The results are presented graphically in the form of isotherms, streamlines, mid-plane velocities, and Nusselt numbers for the various combinations of the considered parameters. It is observed that the overall heat transfer rate is low at Ri = 100 in the positive direction of lid movement, whereas it is low at Ri = 1 in the negative direction. The average Nusselt number is lowered on growing Hartmann number for all considered moving directions of top wall with non-uniform heating. The low permeability, Da = 10−4 keeps the flow pattern same dominating the magnetic field, whereas magnetic field strongly affects the flow pattern dominating the high Darcy number Da = 10−1. The heat transfer rate increases on enhancing the solid volume fraction regardless of the magnetic field.

The effect of an external magnetic field on the hydration behavior of nanoscopic n-octane plates has been extensively investigated using molecular dynamics simulation in an isothermal-isobaric ensemble. The solute plates with different intermolecular spacing have also been considered to examine the effect of the topology of hydrophobic plates on the adsorption behavior of confined water in the presence of an external magnetic field with an intensity ranging from 0.1T to 1 T. The results demonstrate that magnetic exposure decreases the density of water for the plates with intermolecular spacing of a0 = 4 and 5 Å. This suggests that the free energy barrier for evaporation can be lowered by the applied field, and the hydrophobic solutes consisting of condensed n-octane molecules are apt to aggregate in the aqueous solution. In contrast, the magnetic field improves the dissolution or wetting of solutes comprised of loosely packed n-octane plates of a0=7Å. A magnetic-field-induced adsorption-to-desorption translation, which is in agreement with the experimental results provided by Ozeki, has also been observed for the plates with intermolecular spacing of a0 = 6 Å.

Fluid Elasticity

In this study, the influences of the applied magnetic field and fluid elasticity were investigated for a nonlinear viscoelastic fluid obeying the Carreau equation between concentric annulus where the inner cylinder rotates at a constant angular velocity and the outer cylinder is stationary. The governing motion and energy balance equations are coupled while viscous dissipation is taken into account, adding complexity to the already highly correlated set of differential equations. The numerical solution is obtained for the narrow gap limit and steady-state base flow. Magnetic field effect on local entropy generation due to steady two-dimensional laminar forced convection flow was investigated. This study was focused on the entropy generation characteristics and its dependency on various dimensionless parameters. The effects of the Hartmann number, the Brinkman number, the Deborah number, and the fluid elasticity on the stability of the flow were investigated. The application of the magnetic field induces a resistive force acting in the opposite direction of the flow, thus causing its deceleration. Moreover, the study shows that the presence of magnetic field tends to slowdown the fluid motion and thus increases the fluid temperature. However, the total entropy generation number decreases as the Hartmann number and fluid elasticity increase and it increases with increasing Brinkman number.

Good Agreement

In a rarefied polyatomic gas streaming through a rectangular channel, an external magnetic field produces a heat flux perpendicular to the flow direction. Experiments on this “viscom agnetic heat flux” have been performed for CO, N2, CH4 and HD at room temperature, with different orientations of the magnetic field. Such measurements enable one to separate the boundary layer contribution from the purely bulk contribution by means of the theory recently developed by Vestner. Very good agreement is found between the experimentally determined bulk contribution and the theoretical Burnett value for CO, N2 and CH4 , yet the behavior of HD is found to be anomalous.

The Magnetic Field

The ferromagnetism induced by an external magnetic field (EMF), in (3+1) dimensions, is governed by Kraenkel–Manna–Merle system (KMMS). A (1+1) dimension model equation was derived in the literature. The magnetic moments are parallel to the magnetic field in ferromagnetism as they are aligning in the same direction of the external field. Here, it is shown that the KMMS supports the presence of internal magnetic field. This may be argued to medium characteristics. The objective of this work is to mind multiple soliton solutions, which are obtained via the generalized together with extended unified methods. Graphical representation of the results are carried. They describe infinite soliton shapes, which arise from the multiple variation of the arbitrary functions in the solutions. It is, also, shown that internal magnetic field decays, asymptotically, to zero with time.

AbstractIn this paper, we report a thin magnetic micropump embedded in contact lens, which is capable of on-demand one-directional drug delivery. The proposed micropump can be actuated by the external magnetic field whenever needed without the need of battery. A micro check valve was integrated with the micropump for one-directional drug delivery from the micropump to the post-lens tear film. With actuation of the external magnetic field, the micro check valve is opened, and on-demand drug release can be realized. On the contrary, without an external magnetic field, the micro check valve is closed, and the undesired drug diffusion can be prevented. Through the control of the strength and the frequency of the magnetic field pulse, on-demand drug release and controlled dose can be realized.

The energy loss rate, Ė, of test ions injected with velocity V into a Maxwellian electron-ion plasma in the presence of an external magnetic field, is studied. Most of the integrals appearing in the expression for Ė are evaluated analytically and the remaining integrals are evaluated numerically for various values of the parameters η = Ωe / ωe, x = V/ve, r = Te/Ti, and the angle of injection θ. It is shown that the effect of the magnetic field is rather small except for η > 1, the temperature ratio is important for small x (x ≤ 0·2), and the injection angle is not important.
