Abstract

The natural convection of a magnetic e uid in a two-dimensional rectangular cavity with an imposition of an even vertical magnetic e eld was studied experimentally and numerically. Results obtained from the numerical analysis showed good agreement with experimental heat transfer data. From both experiment and numerical analysis, it was revealed that the vertically imposed magnetic e eld has a destabilizing ine uence, and at the super critical state the e ow mode becomes substantially different from that with no magnetic e eld. A prediction from the numerical analysis indicates that the imposition of the magnetic e eld causes thee ow to a higher transition e ow mode, enhancing the heat transfer.
