Abstract

The results of experimental studies of the magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) effect on the flow around an axisymmetric model of a supersonic nitrogen stream are presented. The magnetic field was created by a solenoid located on the cylindrical part of the model under the influence of a pulsed electric current flowing through the solenoid. A pulsed gas discharge was ignited on the conical surface of the model, acquiring rotation in the solenoidal magnetic field around the model axis. The effect of the magnetic field on the gas-dynamic structure of the flow near the model and the heat flux to its surface were investigated. In the experiments, schlieren pictures,fast photographic scans of the discharge glow were recorded, and heat flux was measured. The effect of a magnetic field on the gasdynamic structure of the flow near the model and the heat load to its surface were found. Also, the dependence of MHD effects on the polarity of external voltage source connecting was found.
