Description
Solver for magnetohydrodynamics (MHD): incompressible, laminar flow of a
conducting fluid under the influence of a magnetic field.
An applied magnetic field H acts as a driving force,
at present boundary conditions cannot be set via the
electric field E or current density J. The fluid viscosity nu,
conductivity sigma and permeability mu are read in as uniform
constants.
A fictitous magnetic flux pressure pH is introduced in order to
compensate for discretisation errors and create a magnetic face flux
field which is divergence free as required by Maxwell's equations.
However, in this formulation discretisation error prevents the normal
stresses in UB from cancelling with those from BU, but it is unknown
whether this is a serious error. A correction could be introduced
whereby the normal stresses in the discretised BU term are replaced
by those from the UB term, but this would violate the boundedness
constraint presently observed in the present numerics which
guarantees div(U) and div(H) are zero.
