Effect of an External Oriented Magnetic Field on Entropy Generation in Natural Convection

The influence of an external oriented magnetic field on entropy generation in natural convection for air and liquid gallium is numerically studied in steady-unsteady states by solving the mass, the momentum and the energy conservation equations. Entropy generation depends on five parameters which ar...
