Computational extended magneto-hydrodynamical study of shock structure generated by flows past an obstacle

Journal Article Zhao, Xuan ; Seyler, C. E., E-mail: ces7@cornell.edu - Physics of Plasmas

The magnetized shock problem is studied in the context where supersonic plasma flows past a solid obstacle. This problem exhibits interesting and important phenomena such as a bow shock, magnetotail formation, reconnection, and plasmoid formation. This study is carried out using a discontinuous Galerkin method to solve an extended magneto-hydrodynamic model (XMHD). The main goals of this paper are to present a reasonably complete picture of the properties of this interaction using the MHD model and then to compare the results to the XMHD model. The inflow parameters, such as the magnetosonic Mach number M{sub f} and the ratio ofmore »« less

The Magneto-Hydrodynamic Boundary Layer in the Two-Dimensional Steady Flow Past a Semi-Infinite Flat Plate. III. The Influence of an Adverse Magneto- Dynamic Pressure Gradient

Journal Article Davies, T. V. - Proceedings of the Royal Society. A. Mathematical, Physical and Engineering Sciences

The boundary-layer flow of a viscous electrically conducting liquid is investigated in the neighborhood of a semi-infinite flat plate, the flow being opposed by a magneto-dynamic pressure gradient. The plate is assumed to be unmagnetized and the magnetic field well away from the plate is parallel to the plate. This is the extension of the Falkner & Skan problem to an electrically conducting liquid. The adverse magneto-dynamic pressure gradient being given by Cxⁿ, an investigation is made of the viscous stress at the plate and also the critical values of the parameters C and n when this viscous stress vanishes.more »« less

Two-dimensional supersonic nonlinear Schroedinger flow past an extended obstacle

Journal Article El, G A ; Khodorovskii, V V ; Kamchatnov, A M ; ... - Physical Review. E, Statistical, Nonlinear, and Soft Matter Physics (Print)

Supersonic flow of a superfluid past a slender impenetrable macroscopic obstacle is studied in the framework of the two-dimensional (2D) defocusing nonlinear Schroedinger (NLS) equation. This problem is of fundamental importance as a dispersive analog of the corresponding classical gas-dynamics problem. Assuming the oncoming flow speed is sufficiently high, we asymptotically reduce the original boundary-value problem for a steady flow past a slender body to the one-dimensional dispersive piston problem described by the nonstationary NLS equation, in which the role of time is played by the stretched x coordinate and the piston motion curve is defined by the spatial bodymore »« less

The Magneto-Hydrodynamic Boundary Layer in the Two-Dimensional Steady Flow Past a Semi-Infinite Flat Plate. II. The Falkner-Skan Problem

Journal Article James, E. M. - Proceedings of the Royal Society. A. Mathematical, Physical and Engineering Sciences

The flow of a viscous liquid past a semi-infinite flat plate against an adverse pressure gradient is investigated. The method used is an iterative method suggested in a paper by Weyl. To start the iterative procedure a function is chosen that satisfies some of the boundary conditions and by using this function the first iterative solution was obtained analytically in terms of confluent hypergeometric functions. Two different starting functions were considered. In the first case it was found possible to compare the results obtained with the well-known Hartree numerical solution and even at the first iteration close agreement is achieved.more »« less
