... flow to or from the generator. The point at which the contacts open (around 8.5 to 11 volts) is known as the drop-off point. If the series winding contacts in the cut-out relay did not open at low generator output, the higher battery voltage would flow back through the control box, through the wirin ...

Introduction - Helically Symmetric eXperiment
... The results are displayed in Figure 8a), where the experimental and neoclassical fluxes are for the Mirror discharge of Fig. 1. Inside a normalized radius of ~0.4, the particle flux is comparable to the neoclassical value, agreeing to within a factor of ~3. This corresponds to the region in which t ...

propagation constant
... The product of E and H gives units of W/m2 (volume power density, analogous to volume current density). As shown for the uniform plane wave, the direction of E×H gives the direction of wave propagation (the direction of power flow). Thus, we seek a relationship defining the cross product of E and H. ...

Magnetohydrodynamics
Magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) (magneto fluid dynamics or hydromagnetics) is the study of the magnetic properties of electrically conducting fluids. Examples of such magneto-fluids include plasmas, liquid metals, and salt water or electrolytes. The word magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) is derived from magneto- meaning magnetic field, hydro- meaning water, and -dynamics meaning movement. The field of MHD was initiated by Hannes Alfvén, for which he received the Nobel Prize in Physics in 1970.The fundamental concept behind MHD is that magnetic fields can induce currents in a moving conductive fluid, which in turn polarizes the fluid and reciprocally changes the magnetic field itself. The set of equations that describe MHD are a combination of the Navier-Stokes equations of fluid dynamics and Maxwell's equations of electromagnetism. These differential equations must be solved simultaneously, either analytically or numerically.
