Key conclusion
Improvement of heat transfer is related to better mixing once the gravity effect is reduced
Free surface images (gray scale) taken directly via high speed imaging (4000 fps) along with analyzed images (right pairs) using image processing technique for Q=5 liters/sec and inclination angle of3.5
High surface deformation turbulence modeling pushing for higher Re
• Cases being run now include Re ~1000 at various inclination angles

Test problem : based on Sterl [1990]
91x91 cells in the y-z plane,Total of 496,860 cells
Solved on 8 processors
Sample grid with 8 partitions for Ha = 10,000
Velocity carpet plot showing Hartmann layers and side-jets
Note that the wall layersare extremely sharp, and also well resolved
Pressure drop in high Ha flows
M-shaped velocity profiles for Ha = 1,000 and 10,000
1-(10000)-1/2 1-(1000)-1/2
Good agreement with standard sidelayer 1/Ha scaling
Inclusion of solution in conductingwall, Streamwise pressure drop
Needs to be compared and evaluated closely for accuracy
Benefits to complex problems such as: insulation with crack
At high Hartmann numbers, to simulate cracksin insulating coatings, it is often desired to clusteran enormous numbers of cells in the crack andwall layer regions. This number can frequentlyrun into several hundreds of thousand cells,and can approach a million cells even for relatively simple looking cases. Parallel processingis inevitable for such cases.
Future Development of HIMAG at Hypercomp
Possible funding sources for the immediate future to continue the development of HIMAG:
(a) Potential Phase-II SBIR activity: (starting June 2004 ? )
(b) Integration with ITER TBM program to ITER related work (effort to the level of about $ 100 K / year)
(c) Independent funding from DOE on super-computing initiatives,
Proposed work over next ~6 months
• Finalize papers based on reviews • Finish up experiments and DNS study of surface
turbulence with high deformation (UCLA and UCSB)• Continue HIMAG benchmark (Hypercomp and UCLA)
– Push high Hartmann no. limits in closed channels– Test against 3D interfacial MHD benchmark exps.– Application to MTOR NSTX exps and DIMES– Continue development of multi-material problems (including crack)
• Apply k-e MHD model to more advanced closed channel flow geometries – 3D MHD pipe flow
• Apply channel flow instability calculations to real cases, assess impact and prospect for continued work
• Oversee MTOR upgrades and J2 magnet
Blue indicates overlap into TBM program
Lessons learned in task II
• It takes a long time and dedication to do good (safe) experiments and develop and utilize sophisticated modeling codes
• Coordination is needed in fielding and continueing experiments - guidance and input from modeling and design.
• Not all experiments and codes end up working as planned (or when planned). Risk is an necessary element
