Abstract
Results of an experimental study of the flow of an ionized gas produced by a shock wave through an inhomogeneous magnetic field are presented. Braking of the gas flow produced by the end currents is determined at two fixed sections of the magnetogasdynamic channel from the value of the isolated shock wave formed in the vicinity of the hemispherical model over which the flow passes. Maximum recorded reduction in Mach number was 30%, and with a magnetogasdynamic interaction parameter greater than 1.5, a transition of supersonic flow to infrasonic at the exit of the magnetic zone was observed. Experimental results were compared with a solution of a model problem which assumed one-dimensional flow in the flow core. The gas used was argon, with a maximum magnetic field induction of 1.5 T.
