Abstract

The establishment of a supersonic one-dimensional flow of a dual-temperature, partially ionized plasma is investigated in the channel of a disk-MHD generator, taking account of nonequilibrium ionization and recombination reactions. A detailed formulation of the problem is given in [1]; flows are considered in the absence of ionization and recombination reactions and in the case of equilibrium reactions.
