Original Abstract

The presented article describes a simulation of an electrochemical reaction in a presence of a magnetic field using a custom model implemented into Ansys Fluent. The influence of electrode size and the effect of scan rate is investigated further. The results show that the magnetic field can significantly increase mixing and transport of species towards the electrode, which results in higher obtained current densities. Additionally, this method can be used to control fluid flow in microfluidic devices.
