EVALUATING THE TRANSPORT SYSTEM EFFICIENCY OF PUMPING ELECTRICALLY CONDUCTIVE LIQUID BASED ON THE RESULTS OF MATHEMATICAL MODELING

Today in many industries there is a need to pump electrically conductive fluids. In contrast classical hydrodynamics, MHD modeling requires the simultaneous solution of equations hydrodynamics and electrodynamics, which significantly complicates process. For fluids, such number experimental studies has not yet been conducted, addition, dependencies are complicated by influence magnetic field take into account their magnitude. An urgent task determine dependences pressure losses local resistances during flow electromagnetic fluids on hydrodynamic parameters. The development computational recent years led fact that use CFD-calculations can practically replace valuable mathematical modeling. Experimental powerful electromagnets variety often have only properties, but non-Newtonian. Based numerical simulation fluid pipeline elbow, at bend elbow were determined solving Navier – Stokes averaged according Reynolds. significant effect diagram velocity before after turn knee due induction vector either first or second section perpendicular tube. At relatively small values Reynolds numbers, very significant, increases resistance coefficient more than 15 times compared without action field.
