Magnetohydrodynamic flow in channels with cross-channel pressure interaction

Abstract eng:
A transverse magnetic field of finite and large strength is applied to a hydrodynamic channel flow that has asymmetric channel wall distortions and a cross-channel pressure interaction. As the magnetic field strength is gradually increased, the basic character of the hydrodynamic interaction is preserved but on a shorter stream-wise length scale. At a sufficiently large value of the magnetic field strength, a new flow structure emerges, where the stream-wise length of the interaction is comparable to the channel width. Linear free interactions are used to investigate the properties of these structures.
