Exact two-dimensionalization of low-magnetic-Reynolds-number flows subject to a strong magnetic field
Exact two-dimensionalization of low-magnetic-Reynolds-number flows subject to a strong magnetic field
We investigate the behaviour of flows, including turbulent flows, driven by a horizontal body force and subject to a vertical magnetic field, with the following question in mind: for a very strong applied magnetic field, is the flow mostly two-dimensional, with remaining weak three-dimensional fluctuations, or does it become exactly …
