This paper presents a two-dimensional model for describing the dynamics of partially ionized air compression plasma flows, generated by a magnetoplasma compressor. The model is based on the large-particle method together with the introduction of a magnetic field. The results of calculations of the dynamics and structure of compression plasma flows are studied and compared with experimental data.
