Effect Of Induced Magnetic Field On Mixed Convection Flow In A Vertical Channel With Symmetric And Asymmetric Wall Heating Conditions, Hasan N. Zaidi

Applications and Applied Mathematics: An International Journal (AAM)

The present paper concerns the study of the induced magnetic field effect on mixed convection flow of viscous incompressible electrically conducting fluid in a vertical channel with symmetric and asymmetric wall heating conditions with heat generation. A steady, laminar, and fully developed flow is considered. Through the appropriate choice of dimensionless variable, the governing equations are developed and three types of thermal boundary conditions isothermal-isothermal, isoflux-isothermal, and isothermal-isoflux for the left-right wall of the channel have prescribed. The analytical solutions for the velocity field, temperature field, magnetic field, and induced current density have been acquired for three types of thermal …
