The electromagnetic pumping (EMP) of electrically-conducting fluid is of growing interest for many industrial applications requiring precise flow control, enabling stopping or reversing flow direction without any moving parts or mechanical devices.

Presented in this work are the results of a 3D numerical magneto-hydrodynamic (MHD) simulation of direct current (DC) EMP for liquid aluminum at large Reynolds number under externally imposed non-uniform magnetic field.

Several pumping operation conditions are applied to study the deformations of the initial flow velocity profile in the magnetic field region.
