The key interest of the present study is an attempt of passive control of flow regimes developed under magnetic field and thermal loads by applying specially shaped conditions, such as swirling, at the duct inlet. In this paper, we report results of numerical simulations of the interaction of swirling flow and transverse magnetic field in a square duct flow. Analysis of the obtained regimes might be important for the development of an experimental setup, in order to design corresponding inlet sections. %0Journal Article
