Simplified Variational Principles for Barotropic Magnetohydrodynamics
Variational principles for magnetohydrodynamics were introduced by previous authors both in Lagrangian and Eulerian form. In this paper we introduce simpler Eulerian variational principles from which all the relevant equations of barotropic magnetohydrodynamics can be derived. The variational principle is given in terms of six independent functions for non-stationary barotropic flows and three ...
متن کاملSimplified Variational Principles for Barotropic Fluid Dynamics
We introduce a three independent functions variational formalism for stationary and non-stationary barotropic flows. This is less than the four variables which appear in the standard equations of fluid dynamics which are the velocity field ~v and the density ρ. It will be shown how in terms of our new variable the Euler and continuity equations can be integrated in the stationary case.

Variational principles for magnetohydrodynamics were introduced by previous authors both in Lagrangian and Eulerian form. In a previous work Yahalom & Lynden-Bell introduced a simpler Eulerian variational principles from which all the relevant equations of magnetohydrodynamics can be derived. The variational principle was given in terms of six independent functions for non-stationary flows and ...
متن کاملSmoothed Particle Magnetohydrodynamics – II. Variational principles and variable smoothing-length terms
In this paper we show how a Lagrangian variational principle can be used to derive the Smoothed Particle Magnetohydrodynamics (SPMHD) equations for ideal Magnetohydrodynamics (MHD). We also consider the effect of a variable smoothing length in the Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics (SPH) kernels, after which we demonstrate by numerical tests that the consistent treatment of terms relating to the g...
