    Abstract

    A lamellar pattern can form in a thin magnetic fluid layer when the applied electric field is above a critical value. A 2D simulation is performed to study the field-induced phase separation and the pattern by using the mass continuity equation. The simulation produces the similar structure in field but does not match the experimental growth law.
