Thermocapillary Convection of Low Prandtl Number Fluids under Uniform Magnetic Fields

Abstract:

Numerical simulations on thermocapillary convection of low Pr number molten tin under uniform magnetic field have been conducted under microgravity. The Navier-Stokes equations coupled with the energy conservation equation are solved on a staggered grid, and the free surface is captured by using the level set method. The present results show that the transverse uniform magnetic field can restrain the thermocapillary convection, and the fluid velocity at the hot corner fluctuates with a constant frequency at the steady state.
