Highly efficient numerical simulations

Newly developed MHD numerical simulations will guide the experimental development and provide a framework for a detailed analysis of the physics at work. These 3D MHD simulations, based on parallelized volume penalization methods are described in section Numerics, and are carried out at Laboratoire de Mécanique de Fluides et d'Acoustique, Ecole Centrale de Lyon

Preliminary results

Preliminary calculations give insight of the physical processes at lead in driving the plasma flow. More informations will be found here
