| Abstract: | In contrast with conventional gasdynamics, in magnetogasdynamics there are several types of mixed flows. A detailed study of such plane flows was first made by Kogan 1]. After this, intensive work was done on the magnetogasdynamic mixed flows 2–13], with the plane case being considered in all the studies except 9]. In 9] the equations of the possible mixed flows for the axisymmetric case were obtained in terms of the disturbance velocity components.The axisymmetric mixed flows are studied in detail in the present paper. The exact equations of motion are obtained for the velocity potential and the streamfunction, and the corresponding approximate equations are obtained for all the transitional regimes (transonic, hypercritical, trans-Alfvenic, transonic-trans-Alfvenic). Simple particular solutions are obtained for these approximate equations.For greater generality the entire study is made simultaneously for the plane and axisymmetric cases.The author wishes to thank S. V. Fal'kovich for his interest in the study and for valuable discussions. |
