An ultrasonic velocity profile (UVP) method has been successfully applied to the investigation of a liquid metal channel flow under the influence of an inhomogeneous magnetic field. Using velocity profiles obtained by the ultrasonic velocimeter and their numerical post processing, two-dimensional time-averaged flow maps were efficiently produced. A single transducer immersed directly into the working fluid was used in order to simplify alignment of measurement lines and avoid the undesirable refraction of the acoustic beam on the walls. An M-shaped flow and wake behind a magnetic obstacle were reconstructed as the patterns of shear and large-scale vortical flows.
