Abstract

In many biological, chemical and industrial applications the time for discharging a pipe in a process is very important in order to obtain optimal mixing. Particulary in the case of stationary rate processes it may mean lower cost and improved optimization. In this paper a new method to compute the velocity profile in established plastic flow in circular pipes under the effect of a magnetic field is presented. Results are presented for a variety of pressure gradients and yield stresses for different values of the Hartmann number.
