Hartmann number

The Hartmann number (Ha) is the ratio of electromagnetic force to the viscous force first introduced by Julius Hartmann. It is frequently encountered in fluid flows through magnetic fields. It is defined by: where * B is the magnetic field intensity * L is the characteristic length scale * σ is the electrical conductivity * μ is the dynamic viscosity
