TLDR
In this article, the effects of an axial magnetic field on the flow and heat transfer about a rotating disk were analyzed, and it was found that the presence of the magnetic field significantly decreases the flow velocities; but increases the torque required to maintain steady rotation of the disk.Abstract:
The effects of an axial magnetic field on the flow and heat transfer about a rotating disk were analyzed. It was found that the presence of the magnetic field significantly decreases the flow velocities; but increases the torque required to maintain steady rotation of the disk. The heat transfer was also decreased by the magnetic field, with greater reductions occurring for low Prandtl number fluids. (auth)read more

Unsteady mixed convection flow from a rotating vertical cone with a magnetic field
TL;DR: In this paper, an analysis was developed to study the unsteady mixed convection flow over a vertical cone rotating in an ambient fluid with a time-dependent angular velocity in the presence of a magnetic field, and the coupled nonlinear partial differential equations governing the flow were solved numerically using an implicit finite-difference scheme.
