Abstract: | An analytical solution to electrodynamic equations for the electric potential in a locally ionized magnetohydrodynamic (MHD)
flow in the nonuniform magnetic field produced by a straight-line conductor is found. Analytical formulas are obtained to
evaluate the volume density of the Lorentz force and the integral Lorentz force acting on the locally ionized region of the
MHD flow. It is shown that the MHD action on the locally ionized flow in the nonuniform magnetic field can be used to control
the elevating force as well as the ratio of the elevating force to the drag force. |
