Abstract
Similarity solutions are obtained for one-dimensional flow under the action of monochromatic radiation behind a cylindrical magnetogasdynamic shock wave propagating in a non-ideal gas in presence of an axial magnetic field. The initial density of the medium and initial magnetic field are assumed to be constant. It is investigated that the presence of the magnetic field or the non-idealness of the gas decays the shock wave, and when the initial magnetic field is strong the non-idealness of the gas affects the velocity and pressure profiles significantly. Also, it is observed that the flow-variables behind the shock are affected significantly, by an increase in the parameter of radiation, when the initial magnetic field is strong. It is, therefore, inferred that the effect of the non-idealness of the gas and of the monochromatic radiation on the shock propagation become more significant when the strength of the initial magnetic field is increased.
