Abstract
This work deals with the evaluation of the efficiency and optimal control of conductive fluids by using electromagnetic forces. An electromagnetic actuator based on a succession of electrodes and magnets annuli is implemented on the surface of the rotating cylinder of a Taylor-Couette device. Considering a laminar flow, the magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) problem is formulated and solved analytically. The different MHD powers, control efficiency and optimal values of the control parameters are evaluated.
