THE FIRST-ORDER MHD FLOW ABOUT A MAGNETIZED SPHERE
Technical Report
·
OSTI ID:4762550
When both the velocity vector field and the magnetic vector field are axi-symmetric with no azimuthal components the system of equations for steady magnetohydrodynamic problems reduces to two scalar equations. These are used to find the flow field and magnetic field about a uniformly magnetized sphere correct to the first-order in the parameters: Hartmann number, Reynolds number, and magnetic Reynolds number. The first complete first-order M squared). A similar relation is predicted for all first-order MHD flows about symmetric magnetized bodies. The multiplier of Re depends upon body shape; that of M squared depends upon both body shape and magnetic field. (auth)
