The influence of oriented magnetic field on the incompressible and electrically conducting flow is investigated in a square cavity with a moving top wall and a no-slip constricted bottom wall. Radial basis function (RBF) approximation is employed to velocity-stream function-vorticity formulation of MHD equations. Numerical results are shown in terms of streamlines for different values of Hartmann number M, orientation angle of magnetic field θ and the height of the constricted bottom wall hc with a fixed Reynolds number. It is obtained that the number of vortices arises as either hc or M increases. However, the increase in θ leads to decrease the number of vortices. Formation of vortices depends on not only the strength and the orientation of the magnetic field but also the constriction of the bottom wall.
