Abstract
Heat transfer in a MHD flow between two infinite eccentric disks rotating with different speeds is considered when the plates are maintained at different temperatures. The results for the corresponding nonmagnetic case presented wrongly by Banerjee and Borkakati [7] are corrected. It is observed that the eccentric rotation reduces the heat transfer on the disks.
Zusammenfassung
Der Wärmeübergang in MHD-Strömung wird untersucht zwischen zwei unendlichen exzentrischen Platten, die mit verschiedenen Geschwindigkeiten rotieren und verschiedene Temperaturen haben. Die Ergebnisse im nichtmagnetischen Fall bringen eine Richtigstellung der von Banerjee und Borkakati [7] gefundenen Resultate. Man beobachtet eine Abnahme des Wärmeüberganges bei der exzentrischen Rotation.
