the paper presents the semi-numerical solution for the magnetohydrodynamic (mhd) viscous flow due to a stretching sheet caused by boundary layer of an incompressible viscous flow. the governing partial differential equations of momentum equations are reduced into a nonlinear ordinary differential equation (node) by using a classical similarity transformation along with appropriate boundary cond...

A volume penalization approach to simulate magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) flows in confined domains is presented. Here the incompressible visco-resistive MHD equations are solved using parallel pseudo-spectral solvers in Cartesian geometries. The volume penalization technique is an immersed boundary method which is characterized by a high flexibility for the geometry of the considered flow. In the p...

in this research ideal magnetohydrodynamics equations (mhd) has been solved in a channel of quasi one dimensional plasma flow. magnetohydrodynamics equations, including continuity, momentum, energy and induced magnetic field equations are with the respect of the gauss magnetic condition. the implemented numerical solution is based on harten, lax, vanleer (hlld) discontinuities solution methods....

Magnetohydrodynamic MHD flow of a RedOx electrolyte in a straight conduit is investigated theoretically. Inert electrodes are deposited along segments of the opposing walls of a straight conduit that is filled with a RedOx electrolyte solution. The conduit is positioned in a uniform magnetic field. When a potential difference is applied across the opposing electrodes, the resulting current inte...

We demonstrate a close analogy between a viscoelastic medium and an electrically conducting fluid containing a magnetic field. Specifically, the dynamics of the Oldroyd-B fluid in the limit of large Deborah number corresponds to that of a magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) fluid in the limit of large magnetic Reynolds number. As a definite example of this analogy, we compare the stability properties of ...

We present two-dimensional, cylindrically symmetric simulations of hydrodynamic and magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) wide-angle winds interacting with a collapsing environment. These simulations have direct relevance to young stellar objects (YSOs). The results may also be of use in the study of collimated outflows from proto-planetary and planetary nebulae. We study a range of wind configurations con...

We describe a time-dependent three-dimensional magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) simulation of plasma flow past Jupiter's satellite Io. The simulation starts with a uniform, magnetized flow interacting with a finite conducting sphere (representing Io), and the integration is carried forward in time until a quasi-steady state develops. Previously we have reported on the presence of standing slow mode pe...

Parker problem in Hall magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) is considered. Poloidal shear into the toroidal flow generated by the Hall effect is incorporated. This is found to lead to a triple deck structure for the Parker problem in Hall MHD, with the magnetic field falling off in the intermediate Hall-resistive region more steeply (like 1/x) than that (like 1/x) in the outer ideal MHD region. ∗Permanen...

We study the MHD boundary layer flow of an incompressible viscous fluid over a continuously stretching sheet using more suggestive schemes. The fast convergent Dirichlet series solution of governing nonlinear differential equation of MHD flow over nonlinear stretching sheet is obtained. This method has advantages over pure numerical methods in obtaining the derived quantities accurately for var...

The lowest-order description of a magnetized plasma is given by magnetohydrodynamics (MHD). However, many astrophysical plasmas (as well as some laboratory plasmas) are relativistic, in that either the thermal speed or the fluid flow speed approaches the speed of light, and conventional MHD is not consistent with special relativity. Beginning with exact laws of motion, this work derives a gener...
