Abstract

Super-Alfvénic supersonic aligned magnetogasdynamic flow over a cone of finite semi-apex angle, with an attached fast shock wave, is solved numerically. We obtain ‘almond curves’ in the plane of magnetic induction vector variation, analogous to Busemann's ‘apple curves’ for supersonic cone flows, to describe the flow field near the cone. Total surface pressure coefficients, current and vorticity distributions are presented. A closed-form solution of the flow is obtained when a switch-on shock occurs.
