要約

The magnetic gradient field introduced to the convection heat transfer in channel can result in longitudinal vortices in fluid flows. The laminar flow and heat transfer characteristics of air in a rectangular channel confined to a magnetic bi-pole field and a quadrupole field were numerically investigated. The velocity and temperature fields were obtained and the friction coefficients and Nusselt numbers were compared at different Reynolds numbers and wall temperatures for both hydraulically and thermally developing and fully developed flows. Different longitudinal vortices were presented for the convection heat transfers in the magnetic bi-pole and quadrupole fields. The vortex-induced heat transfer enhancement was discussed by using Field Synergy Principle. The results show that the synergy between the flow and temperature fields can be improved by the magnetically induced longitudinal vortices. For hydraulically and thermally developing flows, the synergy between the flow and temperature fields in magnetic quadrupole field was superior to that in bi-pole field. For hydraulically and thermally fully developed flows however, the synergy between the flow and temperature fields in magnetic quadrupole field was worse than that in bi-pole field.
