Abstract
In this study, the Generalized Integral Transformation Technique (GITT) is used to describe the effect of buoyancy force and magnetic field on the vortex breakdown process generated by the rotation of an electrically conductive fluid. A magnetic field is positioned vertically to stabilize the swirling flow caused by the rotation of the bottom disc of a cylindrical recipient. Three fluids were compared in this study where the range of Richardson number is 0 ≤Ri ≤2.0. When the temperature difference is greater than Ri = 0.1, many layers become visible. These stratified flu id layers act as thermal insulators. In the case of stratification, the increased magnetic field reduces the total number of layers formed in the fluid. The influence of gradient temperature on the distribution of the layers generated is discussed. The limitations between the multilayer structure and the monolayer structure for three fluids are calculated as a function of the flow parameters.
期刊介绍：
Journal of Thermal Enginering is aimed at giving a recognized platform to students, researchers, research scholars, teachers, authors and other professionals in the field of research in Thermal Engineering subjects, to publish their original and current research work to a wide, international audience. In order to achieve this goal, we will have applied for SCI-Expanded Index in 2021 after having an Impact Factor in 2020. The aim of the journal, published on behalf of Yildiz Technical University in Istanbul-Turkey, is to not only include actual, original and applied studies prepared on the sciences of heat transfer and thermodynamics, and contribute to the literature of engineering sciences on the national and international areas but also help the development of Mechanical Engineering. Engineers and academicians from disciplines of Power Plant Engineering, Energy Engineering, Building Services Engineering, HVAC Engineering, Solar Engineering, Wind Engineering, Nanoengineering, surface engineering, thin film technologies, and Computer Aided Engineering will be expected to benefit from this journal’s outputs.
