Thermal fluid modeling of a magnetic-boiling pump

In the present study, a magnetic-boiling based heat transport pump has been introduced and modeled numerically. The numerical modeling of the problem has been carried out using a two fluid model and control volume technique. The numerical results showed that a flow of magnetic nanofluid can be induced and drove inside a horizontal tube in the presence of magnetic field due to variations made in the magnetization of the ferrofluid by generation of the vapor bubbles during boiling process.
