A time-averaging procedure is applied for all physical parameters in order to obtain the quasi-gas-dynamic system of equations for magnetohydrodynamics. Evolution of all physical variables is presented in an unsplit divergence form. Divergence-free evolution of the magnetic field is provided by using a constrained transport method based on Stokes theorem. Accuracy and convergence of this method are verified on a large set of standard 1D and 2D test cases.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2013-05-23T05:30:03.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "65M06", "65M22", "76N15", "76W05" ], "keywords": [ "quasi-gasdynamic approach", "numerical solution", "2d test cases", "ideal magnetohydrodynamic equations", "unsplit divergence form" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 13, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2013arXiv1305.5317P" } } }
