Abstract

In [L. Li, M. Ni, and W. Zheng, SIAM J. Sci. Comput., 41 (2019), pp. B796--B815] a charge-conservative finite element method is proposed for solving inductionless and incompressible magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) equations. The purpose of this paper is to propose a robust solver for the discrete problem. Using the framework of field-of-values-equivalence, we first study the preconditioned Krylov space method for the continuous problem in the setting of Hilbert spaces. The algebraic preconditioner for the discrete problem is then obtained by representing the preconditioner for the continuous problem in finite element spaces. By three numerical examples, the optimality of the solver to the number of unknowns is demonstrated for both stationary and time-dependent MHD problems.
