Abstract

As introduced in Chap. 1, the bubbly driven flows are encountered frequently in the metallurgical engineering and the casting engineering, where the bubbles are injected into the molten metal to stir and homogenize the liquid metal (Bai and Thomas, Metall Mater Trans B 32(6):1143–1159, 2001, [1]). For such type of two-phase flows, the MFs are used to control the bubble motion through a contactless way. In addition, in the fusion reactor, the MHD effect will greatly suppress the turbulence of the flow in the energy transfer section, and a possible remedy is to inject gas bubbles into the coolant to enhance the flow disturbances. From this perspective, the bubble behaviors in the fluids subjected to the external MF has became a topic of considerable interest.
