Quasi-two-dimensional MHD duct flow around a 180-degree sharp bend in a strong magnetic field

Quasi-two-dimensional MHD duct flow around a 180-degree sharp bend in a strong magnetic field

This study considers the quasi-two-dimensional flow of an electrically conducting fluid subjected to a strong out-of-plane magnetic field in a rectangular duct. The effect of Hartmann number on flow features such as the length of the downstream recirculation bubbles and the threshold Reynolds number...
