Performance analysis of a diagonal MHD accelerator for space propulsion

The performance of a diagonal magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) accelerator has been numerically investigated. Studies were carried out using air plasma as a working gas in an equilibrium condition based on the MHD Augmented Propulsion Experiment channel designed by NASA. The MacCormack scheme is employed i...
