Heat Transfer during Mixed Convection of a Molten Salt in the Presence of Magnetic Fields

Аннотация

Results of an experimental study of the salt melt downflow in a uniformly heated pipe under the influence of a strong transverse magnetic field are presented. The changes of heat transfer coefficients and statistical characteristics of temperature fluctuations under the influence of the magnetic field are investigated. The peculiarities of the transition of the viscous-gravitational flow in the viscous-inertial-gravitational flow at Reynolds numbers (Re = 3000–5000) under the influence of the magnetic field (Ha = 17) were studied.
