摘要：In the present study, three-dimensional
liquid-metal magnetohydrodynamic splitting flows in a duct
with one inflow channel and two outflow channels are
numerically investigated. A uniform magnetic field is applied,
which forms an angle θ with the x-axis. The numerical
calculation is performed by using CFX code, with a structured
grid system chosen after a series of mesh independence tests.
Also, the interdependency among the current, fluid velocity,
electric potential and pressure distribution is elucidated in order
to describe the electromagnetic characteristics of the
liquid-metal flows. The result shows that higher velocities are
observed in the side layers and the pressure gradient in the
inflow channel is the largest. Meanwhile, the current flows
diagonally due to the applied magnetic field.
