CHARACTERISTIC EQUATIONS FOR A SUPERSONIC FLOW PROBLEM WITH MAGNETOHYDRODYNAMIC EFFECTS

Abstract

A derivation of the characteristic equations for supersonic inviscid flow with magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) forces present is given for the two- dimensional and axisymmetric cases. Workable forms of the equations relating the MHD effects are indicated for the axisymmetric problem.
