Abstract

Abstract In this paper, we first establish a novel first-order, fully decoupled, unconditionally stable time discretization scheme for the MHD system with variable density. This scheme successfully decouples all the coupling terms by combining the gauge-Uzawa method and the scalar auxiliary variable (SAV) method. And we prove its unconditional energy stability. Then we give the first-order finite element scheme and its implementation. Furthermore, we perform a rigorous error analysis of the proposed numerical scheme. Finally, we perform some numerical experiments to demonstrate the effectiveness of the decoupling scheme.
