Abstract
We report measurements of convective heat transfer in gases (air, O-2, N2O and freon-22), liquids (kerosene, silicon oil and distilled water ) and a colloidal suspension (hematite (alpha-Fe2O3) in distilled wate r) under the influence of electric, magnetic and electromagnetic field s. The corresponding heat transfer coefficients indicate a complicated development of heat convections which appeal to be strongly interacti ng. A quantitative interpretation of the results is furnished using di mensional analysis.
