Abstract:This study is a continuation of a combined experimental and numerical investigation [1] of the flow of the eutectic alloy GaInSn inside a cylindrical vessel exposed to a constant electrical current. The emerging electro-vortex flow (EVF), caused by the interaction of the current, which is applied through a tapered electrode, with its own magnetic field might have both detrimental and advantageous effects in liquid metal batteries (LMBs). While the former work [1] was mainly concerned with time-averaged results… Show more
