INVESTIGATION OF THE EFFECTS OF AN AXIAL MAGNETIC FIELD ON THE FLOW OF AN IONIZED GAS.

Abstract

The influence is investigated of an axial magnetic field on the flow properties and heat transfer characteristics of a partially ionized gas in a cylindrical flow channel. Work performed includes assembly and calibration of the experimental equipment, results of heat transfer measurements as a function of magnetic field strength, experimental determination of flow parameters in the channel, and a theoretical description of the problem along with a correlation with experimental results.
