From the frozen-in field lines concept, a highly conducting fluid can move freely along, but not traverse to, magnetic field lines. We discuss this topic and find that in the study of the frozen-in field lines concept, the effects of inductive and capacitive reactance have been omitted. When admitted, the relationships among the motional electromotive field, the induced electric field, the eddy...

The fluid-conveying pipe is a fundamental dynamical problem in the field of fluid– structure interactions. In recent years considerable attention has been given to the lateral vibrations of pipes containing by a moving fluid. In this paper, the vibration analysis of composite natural gas pipeline in the thermal and humidity environment is studied. The effect of the non-uniform magnetic field is...

In a Rayleigh-Taylor instability a dense fluid sits metastably atop a less dense fluid, a configuration that can be stabilized using a magnetic field gradient when one fluid is highly paramagnetic. On switching off the magnetic field, the instability occurs as the dense fluid falls under gravity. By affixing appropriately shaped magnetically permeable wires to the outside of the cell, one may i...

Hydrocephalus is a neurological disorder that usually results from obstruction of the cerebrospinal fluid outflow in the ventricles or in the subarachnoid space. Magnetic resonance imaging offers a great deal of information to specialists in the clinical diagnosis and treatment processes of hydrocephalus. Recently we have proposed a new magnetic resonance imaging sequence that significantly hig...

This paper studies unsteady laminar flow of dusty conducting fluid between parallel porous plates with temperature dependent viscosity. The fluid is acted upon by a constant pressure gradient and an external uniform magnetic field is applied perpendicular to the plates. The parallel plates are assumed to be porous and subjected to a uniform suction from above and injection from below. The visco...

In this research, wave propagation analysis in polymeric smart nanocomposite micro-tubes reinforced by single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNT) conveying fluid is studied. The surrounded elastic medium is simulated by visco-Pasternak model while the composite micro-tube undergoes electro-magneto-mechanical fields. By means of micromechanics method, the constitutive structural coefficients of nano...

This paper presents numerical simulations of incompressible fluid flow problems in the presence of a magnetic field. The equations governing the flow consist of the Navier-Stokes equations of fluid motion coupled with Maxwell ́s equations of electromagnetics. The study of fluid flows under the influence of a magnetic field and with no free electric charges or electric fields is known as magnetoh...

Archibald [1] analyzed the performance of a squeeze film between various geometrical configurations. Later on Wu [2, 3] investigated a squeeze film behavior for mainly, two types of geometries namely, annular and rectangular. Prakash and Viz [4] developed some aspects of the analysis incorporated in Wu [2, 3] and obtained the load carrying capacity ultimately leading to time height relation for...

A MneZn ferrite magnetic fluid (TCF-56) having 5.6 mT fluid magnetization and high pyromagnetic coefficient, (vM/vT 1⁄4 177 A/m K) has been investigated as a coolant in a 3 kW prototype transformer for overloading condition (167%). The winding temperature of a transformer submerged in magnetic fluid reaches at 396.8 K after 3 h of overloading, which is 20 K lower, when the same experiment was c...
