The fluid flow parameters associated with increase or decrease in heat transfer is identified from the
literature. Control of heat and mass transfer processes by means of external force effects is one of the most
important problems in many specialized process and manufacturing applications. The Lorentz force effect
inducing the formation of side layer jets in magnetohydrodynamic flows can potentially result in significant
variations of the heat transfer properties. Recent developments in computational modeling and experimental
methods have given better understanding in several areas which were indistinct in earlier studies. This study
is aimed at reviewing the recently reported developments and consolidating the progress in the area of heat
transfer in magnetohydrodynamic flows. This includes natural convective fluid flows due to the combined effect
of buoyant and magnetic forces as well as magnetic effects on liquids flowing through conduits of different
geometry. The different approaches used are briefly discussed.
