Study of the dynamics of conductive fluids in the presence of localised magnetic fields. Application to the "Lorentz Force Flowmeter".
When an electrically conducting fluid moves through a magnetic field, fluid mechanics and electromagnetism are coupled. This interaction is the object of magnetohydrodynamics, a discipline which covers a wide range of applications, from electromagnetic processing to plasma- and astro-physics. In thi...
