Abstract
This study investigates the heat transfer characteristics of a wall jet over a convex surface under a normal variable magnetic field. The magnetic field induces a Lorentz force and a Joule heating on the flow field with an electrically conducting fluid. The effect due to the magnetic field is found to be similar to the curvature effect, which can retard the flow velocity and degrade the heat transfer efficiency. The results obtained also show that the magnetic effect is only moderate if the curvature effect is absent or if the Prandtl number of fluid is low, and the magnetic effect is subsequently enhanced when the Eckert number increases.
