Experimental study of MHD effects on turbulent flow of Flibe simulant fluid in circular pipe

Direct numerical simulation of MHD heat transfer in high Reynolds number turbulent channel flows for Prandtl number of 25

“…In this DNS result, the bulk Reynolds numbers (Re b = U b 2 h/ , U b is the bulk velocity) were approximately 14,000. These numerical conditions correspond to the typical design parameters for molten salt blankets in the side channel: Ha = 20, Re b = 12,000 [7,9]. In general, the difference of the shapes of the flow cross section somewhat influenced heat transfer.…”

“…But, DNS of MHD duct flows under high-Re -and-Pr conditions corresponded the typical design parameters for molten salt blankets [8,9] requires huge numerical resources. On this reason, a two-dimensional fully developed channel flow was assumed for the first step study.…”

Numerical Study of Turbulent Pipe Flow with Transverse Magnetic Field Using a Spectral/Finite Element Solver

“…In the late 90's and early 2000's, numerical results began to appear [7,8,9]. Finally, in 2008, additional experimental results were obtained [10] for a Reynolds number Re b = 11, 300. In contrast, much more results were obtained in the case of a flow inside a rectangular/square duct.…”

Modeling of MHD turbulent heat transfer in channel flows imposed wall-normal magnetic fields under the various Prandtl number fluids

“…In this DNS database, equivalent conditions [12,13], such as Reynolds number, Hartmann number, and molecular Prandtl number are selected. To begin heat transfer modeling under magnetic fields, we show the applicability of the zero-equation turbulent heat transfer model [14,15] based on a constant turbulent Prandtl number, and estimate the quasitheoretical values of turbulent Prandtl numbers under the effects of MHD with the aid of DNS database.…”
