LOW PRANDTL NUMBER MAGNETOHYDRODYNAMIC NATURAL CONVECTION IN A STRONG CROSS FIELD

The low Prandtl number flow of a conducting fluid about a semi-infinite vertical plate in the presence of a strong cross magnetic field is investigated numerically. The range of Prandtl numbers examined extends down to values appropriate to liquid-metal reactor coolants. A numerical scheme is employed that takes advantage of the established limiting similarity states at the leading edge and downstream.
