THE EFFECTS OF UNIFORM TRANSVERSE MAGNETIC FIELD ON LOCAL FLOW AND VELOCITY PROFILE

A numerical model studied the effects of uniform transverse magnetic field for two fluids (pure water and water with electric conductivity), two different non-magnetizable duct and two flow velocities (steady flow for laminar and incompressible) was examined and The results showed an increase in the magnetic field caused a decrease in the local flow and effected on velocity profile. The result also showed that the water with electrical conductivity more affected than pure water.
