Abstract: In the present study, thermosolutal convection of fluid in a cubic enclosure filled with a binary mixture is numerically investigated in a strong magnetic field. The physical model is heated from left-hand side vertical wall and cooled from opposing wall. Above this enclosure an electric coil is set to generate a magnetic field. The numerical method in the present work is the formalism vector potential vorticity in a three-dimensional configuration using the finite volume method. The influence of the intensity of magnetic field on the three-dimensional flow, the distributions of temperature and concentration and the characteristics of heat and mass transfer are revealed. The results show that the magnetic force has significant effect on the three-dimensional flow structure and heat and mass transfer.
