An iterative study of time independent induction effects in magnetohydrodynamics

M Bourgoin, P Odier, JF Pinton, Y Ricard - Physics of fluids, 2004 - pubs.aip.org
When a magnetic field is applied to a flow of an electrically conducting fluid, complex
induction mechanisms occur and induced currents and magnetic field are generated. For …
