Abstract

In this paper, some recent work on the flow induced by an external magnetic field acting on electrochemical cell is reviewed. Although the influence of the magnetic field on the hydrodynamics has been studied for over 5 decades, the magneto-hydrodynamics (MHD) remain relatively unfamiliar to all but a few research groups. There are nearly countless number of dimensionless parameters in electrolytic flow (bubble induced flow) and MHD, but they have been introduced for convenience by different authors. The similitude parameter proposed by [1] and [2] have been modified to provide a full set of parameters for electrolytic cell operating under external magnetic field. The bubble sliding characteristics underneath an inclined plane are studied using copper sulphate solution (as an electrolyte) in lab-based-scale and discussed.
