Magnetoconvection in a Long Vertical Enclosure With Walls of Finite Electrical Conductivity
Ali Akhtari, Oleg Zikanov, Dmitry Krasnov
Magnetoconvection in a tall vertical box with vertical hot and cold walls, and an imposed steady uniform magnetic field perpendicular to the temperature gradient, is analyzed numer…
Experimental study of submerged liquid metal jet in transverse magnetic field
Ivan A. Belyaev, Ivan S. Mironov, Nikita A. Luchinkin +5
A liquid metal flow in the form of a submerged round jet entering a square duct in the presence of a transverse magnetic field is studied experimentally. A range of high Reynolds a…
Turbulent Rayleigh-Bénard convection in a strong vertical magnetic field
Ruslan Akhmedagaev, Oleg Zikanov, Dmitry Krasnov +1
Direct numerical simulations are carried out to study flow structure and transport properties in turbulent Rayleigh-Bénard convection in a cylindrical cell of aspect ratio one with…
Numerical simulation of rolling pad instability in cuboid liquid metal batteries
Linyan Xiang, Oleg Zikanov
The rolling pad instability is caused by electromagnetic interactions in systems of horizontal layers with strongly different electric conductivities. We analyze the instability fo…

Oleg Zikanov, Dmitry Krasnov, Thomas Boeck +1
Decay of honeycomb-generated turbulence in a duct with a static transverse magnetic field is studied via direct numerical simulations. The simulations follow the revealing experime…
Computational modeling of magnetoconvection: effects of discretization method, grid refinement and grid stretching
A. Gelfgat, O. Zikanov
The problem of natural convection in a laterally heated three-dimensional cubic cavity under the action of an externally imposed magnetic field is revisited. Flows at the Rayleigh…
Instabilities in extreme magnetoconvection
Oleg Zikanov, Yaroslav Listratov, Xuan Zhang +1
Thermal convection in an electrically conducting fluid (for example, a liquid metal) in the presence of a static magnetic field is considered in this chapter. The focus is on the e…
Mixed convection in a downward flow in a vertical duct with strong transverse magnetic field

Thermal convection in a horizontal layer with uniform internal heating and stress-free constant-temperature boundaries is analyzed numerically. The work is motivated by the questio…
Metal pad instabilities in liquid metal batteries
Oleg Zikanov
A mechanical analogy is used to analyze the interaction between the magnetic field, electric current and deformation of interfaces in liquid metal batteries. It is found that, duri…
Thermal convection in a liquid metal battery

Generation of thermal convection flow in the liquid metal battery, a device recently proposed as a promising solution for the problem of the short-term energy storage, is analyzed…
Large-scale intermittency of liquid-metal channel flow in a magnetic field
Thomas Boeck, Dmitry Krasnov, Andre Thess +1
We predict a novel flow regime in liquid metals under the influence of a magnetic field. It is characterised by long periods of nearly steady, two-dimensional flow interrupted by v…
MHD turbulence in a channel with spanwise magnetic field
Dmitry Krasnov, Oleg Zikanov, Joerg Schumacher +1
The effect of a uniform spanwise magnetic field on a turbulent channel flow is investigated for the case of low magnetic Reynolds number. DNS and LES computations are performed for…
