Abstract
⺠Turbulent passive scalar transport in an MHD flow in a channel is studied using DNS. ⺠Magnetic fields of wall-normal, spanwise, and streamwise orientations are considered. ⺠Magnetic fields suppress turbulent transport and modifies scalar distribution. ⺠The effect is particularly strong at wall-normal and spanwise magnetic fields. ⺠Decrease of Nusselt number is approximated by a linear function of magnetic interaction parameter.
