INTERPRETATION OF MAGNETOGASDYNAMIC FLOW PATTERNS,

Abstract

For a twodimensional potential flow of an inviscid, neutral plasma of infinite conductivity, a potential equation was given which was transformed from the flow plane into the hodograph plane by means of a Legendre transformation. Using the graphic representation of these characteristics and the velocity curves, twodimensional MGD problems were solved in analogy to the Prandtl Busemann method of gasdynamics.
