Abstract
This paper considers the origin of electrically induced vortical flow theory as one aspect of magnetohydrodynamics. We consider the physical principles of theory associated with the presence of the critical value of electrically induced vortical flow parameter, the possible origin of this critically, the properties of both converging and diverging electrically induced vortical flows, the flow structure in internal magnetic fields, the characteristics of heat transfer and the behaviour of bodies and gaseous inclusions in current-carrying liquid. The results of experimental study of electrically induced vortical flows including those at multi-electrode current supply have been presented. Promising developments have been outlined.
