Curvature Effects on the Electromagnetic Force, Efficiency, and Heat Transfer of a Weak Low Profile Magneto-Hydrodynamic Blanket Propulsion System

The present study concerns the numerical assessment of the effects of longitudinal and lateral curvature of a flexible low profile magneto-hydrodynamic blanket on its thrust, performance, and heat transfer. To this end, after validating the solver with the analytical solution of the Hartman problem,...
