A consistent and conservative scheme designed by Ni
et al. for the simulation of MHD flows with low magnetic
Reynolds number has been implemented into a 3D
parallel code of HIMAG based on solving the electrical
potential equation. The scheme and code are developed
on an unstructured collocated mesh, on which velocity (u),
pressure (p), and electrical potential ( ) are located in
the cell center, while current fluxes are located on the cell
