Zero Mach number limit to compressible quantum magnetohydrodynamic equations with vanishing viscosity coefficients

The connection between the compressible viscous quantum magnetohydrodynamic model with low Mach number and the ideal incompressible magnetohydrodynamic equations is studied in a periodic domain. More precisely, for well‐prepared initial data, we prove the convergence of classical solutions of the compressible viscous quantum magnetohydrodynamic model to the classical solutions of the incompressible ideal magnetohydrodynamic equations with a convergence rate when the Mach number, viscosity coefficient, and magnetic diffusion coefficient simultaneously tend to zero.     

The Zero Mach Number Limit of the Three-Dimensional Compressible Viscous Magnetohydrodynamic Equations

This paper is concerned with the zero Mach number limit of the three-dimension- al compressible viscous magnetohydrodynamic equations. More precisely, based on the local existence of the three-dimensional compressible viscous magnetohydrodynamic equations, first the convergence-stability principle is established. Then it is shown that, when the Mach number is sufficiently small, the periodic initial value problems of the equations have a unique smooth solution in the time interval, where the incompressible viscous magnetohydrodynamic equations have a smooth solution. When the latter has a global smooth solution, the maximal existence time for the former tends to infinity as the Mach number goes to zero. Moreover, the authors prove the convergence of smooth solutions of the equations towards those of the incompressible viscous magnetohydrodynamic equations with a sharp convergence rate.     

The combined quasineutral and low Mach number limit of Euler–Poisson equations coupled to a magnetic field

In this paper, we consider the combined quasineutral and low Mach number limit of compressible Euler–Poisson system coupled to a magnetic field. We prove that, as the Debye length and the Mach number tend to zero simultaneously in some way, the solution of compressible Euler–Poisson system coupled to a magnetic field will converge to that of ideal incompressible magnetohydrodynamic equations with a sharp convergence rate.     

The combined inviscid and non-resistive limit for the nonhomogeneous incompressible magnetohydrodynamic equations with Navier boundary conditions

In this paper, we establish the existence of the global weak solutions for the nonhomogeneous incompressible magnetohydrodynamic equations with Navier boundary conditions for the velocity field and the magnetic field in a bounded domain ? ? R3. Furthermore,we prove that as the viscosity and resistivity coefficients go to zero simultaneously, these weak solutions converge to the strong one of the ideal nonhomogeneous incompressible magnetohydrodynamic equations in energy space.     

A note on incompressible limit for compressible Euler equations

This paper presents a simple justification of the classical low Mach number limit in critical Besov spaces for compressible Euler equations with prepared initial data. As the first step of this justification, we formulate a continuation principle for general hyperbolic singular limit problems in the framework of critical Besov spaces. With this principle, it is also shown that, for the Mach number sufficiently small, the smooth compressible flows exist on the (finite) time interval where the incompressible Euler equations have smooth solutions, and the definite convergence orders are obtained.

The low Mach number limit in Besov spaces for compressible magnetohydrodynamics equations

In this paper, we develop a continuation principle for general hyperbolic singular limit problems in more general Besov spaces, which covers the cases of usual Sobolev spaces with higher regularity in and the critical Besov space. As an application, we give a simple justification for the low Mach number limit of compressible magnetohydrodynamics equations. More precisely, for the Mach number sufficiently small, the smooth compressible flows exist on the (finite) time interval where the incompressible magnetohydrodynamics equations have smooth solutions, and the definite convergence orders are also obtained.

Vanishing vertical limit of the incompressible combined viscosity and magnetic diffusion magnetohydrodynamic system

In this paper, we consider the incompressible combined viscosity and magnetic diffusion magnetohydrodynamic system with Dirichlet boundary condition in a half space of . We establish the asymptotic expansions of this system by multiscale analysis and obtain the horizontal alone viscosity and magnetic diffusion magnetohydrodynamic equations and the boundary layer equations. And then we study the well‐posedness of the 2 equations. At last, we get the vanishing limit when the vertical viscosity and magnetic diffusion coefficient tends to zero.     

On the regularity of weak solutions to the magnetohydrodynamic equations

In this paper, we study the regularity of weak solution to the incompressible magnetohydrodynamic equations. We obtain some sufficient conditions for regularity of weak solutions to the magnetohydrodynamic equations, which is similar to that of incompressible Navier-Stokes equations. Moreover, our results demonstrate that the velocity field of the fluid plays a more dominant role than the magnetic field does on the regularity of solution to the magneto-hydrodynamic equations.     

Compactness of weak solutions to the three-dimensional compressible magnetohydrodynamic equations

The compactness of weak solutions to the magnetohydrodynamic equations for the viscous, compressible, heat conducting fluids is considered in both the three-dimensional space R³ and the three-dimensional periodic domains. The viscosities, the heat conductivity as well as the magnetic coefficient are allowed to depend on the density, and may vanish on the vacuum. This paper provides a different idea from [X. Hu, D. Wang, Global solutions to the three-dimensional full compressible magnetohydrodynamic flows, Comm. Math. Phys. (2008), in press] to show the compactness of solutions of viscous, compressible, heat conducting magnetohydrodynamic flows, derives a new entropy identity, and shows that the limit of a sequence of weak solutions is still a weak solution to the compressible magnetohydrodynamic equations.     

A stabilized finite element method for the incompressible magnetohydrodynamic equations

Summary. We propose and analyze a stabilized finite element method for the incompressible magnetohydrodynamic equations. The numerical results that we present show a good behavior of our approximation in experiments which are relevant from an industrial viewpoint. We explain in particular in the proof of our convergence theorem why it may be interesting to stabilize the magnetic equation as soon as the hydrodynamic diffusion is small and even if the magnetic diffusion is large. This observation is confirmed by our numerical tests. Received August 31, 1998 / Revised version received June 16, 1999 / Published online June 21, 2000     

A note on the zero Mach number limit of compressible Euler equations

This note presents a short and elementary justification of the classical zero Mach number limit for isentropic compressible Euler equations with prepared initial data. We also show the existence of smooth compressible flows, with the Mach number sufficiently small, on the (finite) time interval where the incompressible Euler equations have smooth solutions.

     

Vanishing viscosity limit for the 3D magnetohydrodynamic system with generalized Navier slip boundary conditions

In this paper, we investigate the vanishing viscosity limit problem for the 3D incompressible magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) system in a general bounded smooth domain of R ³ with the generalized Navier slip boundary conditions. We also obtain rates of convergence of the solution of viscous MHD to the corresponding ideal MHD. Copyright © 2016 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

On two-dimensional magnetohydrodynamic equations with fractional diffusion

We consider the existence of the smooth solution for two-dimensional magnetohydrodynamic equations with fractional diffusion in the fluid equations. In particular, we prove the global-in-time existence of fractional diffusion with power greater than 1/2.     

Global strong solution to the three dimensional nonhomogeneous incompressible magnetohydrodynamic equations with density‐dependent viscosity and resistivity

In this paper, we consider an initial boundary value problem for the 3‐dimensional nonhomogeneous incompressible magnetohydrodynamic equations with density‐dependent viscosity and resistivity coefficients over a bounded smooth domain. Global in time unique strong solution is proved to exist when the L² norms of initial vorticity and current density are both suitably small with arbitrary large initial density, and the vacuum of initial density is also allowed. Finally, we revisit the Navier‐Stokes model without electromagnetic effect. We find that this initial boundary problem also admits a unique global strong solution under other conditions. In particular, we prove small kinetic‐energy strong solution exists globally in time, which extends the recent result of Huang and Wang.     

Low Mach limit to one-dimensional nonisentropic planar compressible magnetohydrodynamic equations

This paper is concerned with a one-dimensional nonisentropic compressible planar magnetohydrodynamic flow with general initial data, whose behaviors at far fields x→±∞ are different. The low Mach limit for the system is rigorously justified. The limit relies on the uniform estimates including weighted time derivatives and an extended convergence lemma.     

Convergence to steady state of solutions of the euler equations,I

In this paper we analyze the convergence to steady state of solutions of the compressible and the incompressible isentropic Euler equations in two space dimensions. In the compressible case, the original equations do not converge. We replace the equation of continuity with an elliptic equation for the density, obtaining a new set of equations, which have the same steady solution. In the incompressible case, the equation of continuity is replaced by a Poisson equation for the pressure. In both cases, we linearize the equations around a steady solution and show that the unsteady solution of the linearized equations converges to the steady solution, if the steady solution is sufficiently smooth. In the proof we consider how the energy of the time dependent part developes with time, and find that it decrease exponentially.     

Haar wavelet approximation for magnetohydrodynamic flow equations

This study proposes Haar wavelet (HW) approximation method for solving magnetohydrodynamic flow equations in a rectangular duct in presence of transverse external oblique magnetic field. The method is based on approximating the truncated double Haar wavelets series. Numerical solution of velocity and induced magnetic field is obtained for steady-state, fully developed, incompressible flow for a conducting fluid inside the duct. The calculations show that the accuracy of the Haar wavelet solutions is quite good even in the case of a small number of grid points. The HW approximation method may be used in a wide variety of high-order linear partial differential equations. Application of the HW approximation method showed that it is reliable, simple, fast, least computation at costs and flexible.

Global existence and the low Mach number limit for the compressible magnetohydrodynamic equations in a bounded domain with perfectly conducting boundary

We study the compressible magnetohydrodynamic equations in a bounded smooth domain in ${{\mathbb{R}}^2}$ with perfectly conducting boundary, and prove the global existence and uniqueness of smooth solutions around a rest state. Moreover, the low Mach limit of the solutions is verified for all time, provided that the initial data are well prepared.     

Low Mach number limit for the full compressible magnetohydrodynamic equations with general initial data

The low Mach number limit for the full compressible magnetohydrodynamic equations with general initial data is rigorously justified in the whole space R³${\mathbb{R}}^3$. First, the uniform-in-Mach-number estimates of the solutions in a Sobolev space are established on a finite time interval independent of the Mach number. Then the low Mach number limit is proved by combining these uniform estimate with a theorem due to Métivier and Schochet (2001) [45] for the Euler equations that gives the local energy decay of the acoustic wave equations.
