Abstract

In this chapter, electromagnetohydrodynamic characteristics of a thermally fully developed flowfully developed flow of an electrolyte solutionelectrolyte solution through micro-parallel plates under the influence of the external magnetic, electric, and radiation fields have been numerically investigated. The finite difference methodfinite difference method has been implemented in an in-house computer program to solve electric potential, momentum, and energy equations with velocity slip and temperature jump conditions at the wall. The effects of dimensionless pressure gradientpressure gradient, Joule heatingJoule heating, viscous heating, and other parameters such as radiationradiation parameter, slip, and temperature-jump on the normalized velocity field, temperature field, flow rate, and Nusselt numberNusselt number have been critically analyzed. It has been observed that the velocity of the flow increases with the slip on the wall. Also, the flow rate is observed to increase with the slip parameterslip parameter and decreases with the Hartmann numberHartmann number. For electromagnetohydrodynamic flow, the Nusselt number is found to increase rapidly at the low value of the electric double layer (EDLelectric double layer (EDL)) parameter ( κ ), which slows down at the high value of κ . We also observe that Nusselt number increases with the Hartmann number ( H a ), EDLelectric double layer (EDL) parameter ( κ ), and radiation parameter ( N r ). We believe that the present study may be helpful to design microfluidic devicesmicrofluidic devices such as micro-heat pipes, micro-heat exchangers, and microelectronics. Moreover, this study may provide valuable insights into magnetic and radioactive therapeutics such as muscle pain relief and tumor treatment.
