Abstract
|
The steady flow of an incompressible viscous
non-Newtonian electrically conducting fluid and
heat transfer due to the rotation of an infinite
disk are studied considering the Hall effect.
The effects of an externally applied uniform
magnetic field, the Hall current, and the
non-Newtonian fluid characteristics on the
velocity and temperature distributions as well
as the heat transfer are considered. Numerical
solutions of the nonlinear equations which govern
the magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) and energy
transfer are obtained over the entire range of
the physical parameters.
