ABSTRACT
A numerical study has been carried out to investigate heat transfer by natural convection and
radiation under the effect of magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) for steady state axisymmetric twodimensional laminar flow in a vertical cylindrical channel filled with saturated porous media. Heat
is generated uniformly along the center of the channel with its vertical surface remain with cooled
constant wall temperature and insulated horizontal top and bottom surfaces. The governing
equations which used are continuity, momentum and energy equations which are transformed to
dimensionless equations. The finite difference approach is used to obtain all the computational
results using the MATLAB-7 programming. The parameters affected on the system are Rayleigh
number ranging within (102 Ra104), radiation parameter (0 Rd2) and MHD (Mn) (0 Mn2).
The results obtained are presented graphically in the form of streamline and isotherm contour plots
and the results show that heat transfer enhanced by radiation effect but decrease with the increase of
magnetohydrodynamic. A correlation has been set up to give the average Nusselt number variation
with Ra, Rd and Mn for which the results are found to be in good agreement with previously
published researches which give maximum deviation of 3.73% when compared with the results of
(Prasad, 1989).

INTRODUCTION
Various heat transfer mechanisms and
geometries have been studied by some
engineers and scientists purposely to augment
heat transfer in heat exchangers and some
other heat transfer equipments. A numerical
investigation of natural convection was
studied for vertical annulus. (Prasad and
Kulacki, 1984) studied numerically free
convection in a vertical annulus filled with
saturated porous media whose vertical walls
at constant temperatures and insulated
horizontal wall. Convective velocities wrer
higher in the upper half than the lower in the
annulus and the local rate in the heat transfer
much higher near the top edge of the cold
wall and Nu was increase with the radius
ratio. (Prasad and Kulacki, 1985) studied
numerically and experimentally the free
convection heat transfer in short cylindrical
annuli filled with saturated porous media
which was glass beads(3 and 6 mm). For an
annulus whose inner wall heated with
constant temperature and outer wall
isothermally cooled, the top and the bottom
being insulated. Heat transfer results have
been obtained numerically and experimentally
up to Ra = 104. (Prasad and Chui, 1989)
studied numerically the natural convection
inside a cylindrical enclosure filled with a
volumetrically heated, saturated porous
medium. Three cases were studied (i) both top
and bottom adiabatic, (ii) insulated bottom
and cooled top, and (iii) both top and bottom
were cooled, and the vertical wall was cooled
for all cases. The maximum temperature
decreased significantly with the change in
horizontal walls boundary conditions from
adiabatic to isothermally cool. The lower is
the aspect ratio and\or Rayleigh number, the
larger the variation in maximum temperature.
(Shivakumara and Prasanna, 2002) studied
numerically the free convection in vertical
cylinder annulus filled with fluid saturated
porous medium with the inner wall heated to
a uniform temperature, the outer wall cooled
to a uniform temperature and maintaining top
MATHEMATICAL MODEL
The schematic drawing of the geometry and
the Cartesian coordinate system employed in
solving the problem is shown in Fig.1. The
fluid flows naturally in the cylinder. This
cylinder is symmetrical about z-axis (/r=0).
Convection heat transfer through a saturated
porous media with a fluid (liquid or gas) is
based on a series of concepts; such concepts
include porosity and permeability of the
porous media, and the volume average
properties of the fluid flowing through the
medium. The governing equations for
axisymmetric, steady flow through Darcy
porous medium including the radiation and
magnetohydrodynamic effect are:

RELAXATION METHOD
As a solution method for the system of
algebraic equations (9) and (10) obtained
from the discretization of governing
differential equations, iterative relaxation
method was used. In relaxation methods, the
value of the variable to be used for obtaining
the solution in the next iteration is the value in
the current iteration plus a fraction of the
difference between the current value and the
predicted value as follows (Massarotti et. al.,

The Ra Effect
From Fig. 8 for (A=1, Rd=1 & Mn=2) its
clear that the temperature of the hotter region
was decreased with the increasing of Ra,
where this temperature equal to (0.196) at
Ra=102 and (0.088) at Ra=104, taking part (b)
of the last figures,
its clear that the
streamlines value in the internal cell
increased with the increasing of Ra, where
this streamlines equal to (0.257) at Ra=102
and (8.151) at Ra=104. This behavior was
happened because the increasing of the Ra
cause an increasing in the velocity and more
circulation between the layers of the fluid that
caused the temperature to be dropped.

CONCLUSIONS
1. Isothermal lines and the streamlines are
symmetric about vertical center line. The
maximum temperature was appeared at
the centerline of the top surface.
2. Temperature and stream were decrease,
Numean was increase, and the hot region
area and inner streamlines cells was
increased with increasing of Rd.
3. With increasing of Mn the temperature
was increased and the streamline was
dropped. Numean was decreased with Mn
increase.
4. Temperature was decreased and the
streamline and Numean was increased with
increasing of Ra, for high values of Ra the
warm region will be adjacent to the upper
wall.
5. At a low Ra there are a little change of
Tmax and Numean with Mn at constant Rd
and A.
