Abstract

Laminar MHD flows are discussed, taking into account laminar duct flows in strong magnetic fields, approximate side layer solutions for a liquid metal flow in a rectangular duct with a strong nonuniform magnetic field, applications of MHD flows between rotating disks, and unsteady magnetoaerodynamic supersonic flows past oscillating thin bodies and lifting surfaces. Other topics explored are related to MHD and HD turbulence, two-phase flows, MHD power generation and application to fission and fusion reactors, and metallurgical applications. Attention is given to Hartmann layers in slowly solidifying liquids, shaping of liquid metal cylinders, the electromagnetic force of narrow stirring inductors, high-temperature liquid metal MHD solar thermal systems, streamer dynamics in MHD generators, a tin-water Faraday generator, an analytical model for bubbly flow, the stability of two-phase liquid metal MHD channel flow, and the transition from three-dimensional to quasi-two-dimensional MHD grid turbulence.
