Magnetohydrodynamics equilibria with toroidal and poloidal flow
In the present work, the effects of flow on tokamak equilibria are investigated, focusing in particular on the effects of poloidal flows. It is shown that discountinuous transonic equilibria with a pedestal structure can be obtained for relatively low values of the poloidal velocity. Equilibria with poloidal flow of the order of the poloidal Alfvén speed are shown to develop inverted Shafranov ...
متن کاملStable Discretization of Magnetohydrodynamics in Bounded Domains
We study a semi-implicit time-difference scheme for magnetohydrodynamics of a viscous and resistive incompressible fluid in a bounded smooth domain with perfectly conducting boundary. In the scheme, velocity and magnetic fields are updated by solving simple Helmholtz equations. Pressure is treated explicitly in time, by solving Poisson equations corresponding to a recently developed formula for...
متن کاملA Numerical Method for General Relativistic Magnetohydrodynamics
This paper describes the development and testing of a general relativistic magnetohydrodynamic (GRMHD) code to study ideal MHD in the fixed background of a Kerr black hole. The code is a direct extension of the hydrodynamic code of Hawley, Smarr, and Wilson, and uses Evans and Hawley constrained transport (CT) to evolve the magnetic fields. Two categories of test cases were undertaken. A one di...
متن کاملDynamic Grid Adaption for Computational Magnetohydrodynamics
In many plasma physical and astrophysical problems, both linear and nonlinear effects can lead to global dynamics that induce, or occur simultaneously with, local phenomena. For example, a magnetically confined plasma column can potentially posses global magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) eigenmodes with an oscillation frequency that matches a local eigenfrequency at some specific internal radius. The c...
متن کاملAxiomatic Justification of Stable Equilibria
A solution concept that satisfies the axioms of invariance and strong backward induction selects a stable set of a game’s equilibria.
