Coupled momentum and heat transport in laminar axisymmetric pipe flow of ferrofluids in non-uniform magnetic fields : theory and simulation

Creator:

Cruz-Fierro, Carlos Francisco

Abstract:

The effect of a non-uniform magnetic field on the coupled transport of momentum and heat is studied for the case of laminar pipe flow of a magnetically susceptible ferrofluid. The momentum and heat transport equations are complemented with the necessary electromagnetic terms and used to develop a computer simulation of...

Hydrodynamic effects of particle chaining in liquid-solid magnetofluidized beds : theory, experiment, and simulation

Creator:

Cruz-Fierro, Carlos Francisco

Abstract:

In a fluidized bed of magnetically susceptible particles, the presence of a magnetic field induce the formation of particle chains due to interparticle magnetic forces. The resulting effect is a change in the overall spatial distribution of the particles, transitioning from a random, isotropic distribution to an ordered, anisotropic distribution....
