Abstract

The effect of Lorentz force(Electromagnetic force) on the liquid metal flow has been investigated. The flow velocity has been calculated by treating the Lorentz force as a source term in the Navier-Stokes equation. The liquid metal flow in the annular duct of an electromagnetic pump was analyzed with the Lorentz force varied.
