Magnetohydrodynamics
- 1968 ----- b & w ----- 27 min ----- 16mm
- Experiments using transparent electrolyte, mercury and liquid sodium-potassium allow scientists to demonstrate the interactions between electromagnetic and velocity fields which are central to magnetohydrodynamics. Explanations are based on simple flux-linkage arguments. Topics include changes in pressure fields due to irrotational j x b forces, changes of vorticity by rotational j x b forces, induced currents and time constants for their decay, Hartmann boundary layers and Alfven waves.
- Topics: (Engineering, Fluid Mechanics, Physics)
