     the competition of buoyancy with electromagnetic body forces is examined numerically in terms of flow structure transitions by means of a two-dimensional unsteady, finite volume model. in the present numerical study, we consider a low-prandtl liquid metal heated by joule effect in a rectangular cavity with an aspect ratio of 2. the direct current provides heat to the process medium by a pair of plate electrodes, located at the cavity sidewalls. the simulations have been carried out for fixed values of the prandtl number,pr = 0.01, and of the rayleigh number, ra = 1.5 × 104, while the hartmann number, ha, varies from 0 to 104. the variation of ha is found to have considerable effects on flow patterns and heat transfer inside the cavity. several hitherto unknown flow structures are revealed, increasing in complexity with increasing ha. amongst the oscillatory flows predicted, intermittency and chaos are detected. the effect of ha on the overall heat transfer performance of the system is also assessed.
