MHD_CONTROL
Magnetic Hydrodynamic Control Datasets


MHD_CONTROL is a set of velocity and magnetic field solutions to a time-dependent incompressible magnetized flow problem in a 2D region.

Here is a sample PNG image of the magnetic field at time step 15.

Related Data and Programs:

The MHD_CONTROL program was used to compute these datasets.

MHD_CONTROL_MOVIE contains MATHEMATICA scripts to animate the velocity or magnetic field data.

MHD_FLOW is an executable program for the (uncontrolled) evolution of an MHD system.

Datasets:

There are 50 files containing the data about the magnetic field, with each line containing the values of the coordinates (X,Y) and magnetic components (B1,B2):
