Magnetohydrodynamic channel flows with weak transverse magnetic fields.
نویسنده
چکیده
Magnetohydrodynamic flow of an incompressible fluid through a plane channel with slowly varying walls and a magnetic field applied transverse to the channel is investigated in the high Reynolds number limit. It is found that the magnetic field can first influence the hydrodynamic flow when the Hartmann number reaches a sufficiently large value. The magnetic field is found to suppress the steady and unsteady viscous flow near the channel walls unless the wall shapes become large.

Magnetohydrodynamic Free Convection Flows with Thermal Memory over a Moving Vertical Plate in Porous Medium
The unsteady hydro-magnetic free convection flow with heat transfer of a linearly viscous, incompressible, electrically conducting fluid near a moving vertical plate with the constant heat is investigated. The flow domain is the porous half-space and a magnetic field of a variable direction is applied. The Caputo time-fractional derivative is employed in order to introduce a thermal flux consti...
متن کاملb-PLANE MAGNETOHYDRODYNAMIC TURBULENCE IN THE SOLAR TACHOCLINE
This Letter discusses the role of a weak toroidal magnetic field in modifying the turbulent transport properties of stably stratified rotating turbulence in the tachocline. A local two-dimensional b-plane model is investigated numerically. In the absence of magnetic fields, nonlinear interactions of Rossby waves lead to the formation of strong mean zonal flows. However, the addition of even a v...
متن کاملInteractions between magnetohydrodynamic shear instabilities and convective flows in the solar interior
Motivated by the interface model for the solar dynamo, this paper explores the complex magnetohydrodynamic interactions between convective flows and shear-driven instabilities. Initially, we consider the dynamics of a forced shear flow across a convectivelystable polytropic layer, in the presence of a vertical magnetic field. When the imposed magnetic field is weak, the dynamics are dominated b...
متن کاملMagnetohydrodynamic Simulations of Hypersonic Flow over a Cylinder Using Axial- and Transverse-Oriented Magnetic Dipoles
Numerical simulations of magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) hypersonic flow over a cylinder are presented for axial- and transverse-oriented dipoles with different strengths. ANSYS CFX is used to carry out calculations for steady, laminar flows at a Mach number of 6.1, with a model for electrical conductivity as a function of temperature and pressure. The low magnetic Reynolds number (<<1) calculated ba...
متن کاملGlobal Three-Dimensional MHD Simulations of Black Hole Accretion Disks: X-ray Flares in the Plunging Region
We present the results of three-dimensional global resistive magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) simulations of black hole accretion flows. General relativistic effects are simulated by using the pseudo-Newtonian potential. Initial state is an equilibrium model of a torus threaded by weak toroidal magnetic fields. As the magnetorotational instability (MRI) grows in the torus, mass accretes to the black h...
