Magnetoplasmadynamics

Term · Industrial and trades · MLC-T-IND-003495

The study of the motion of electrically conducting fluids, such as plasmas, in the presence of magnetic fields. This field investigates the interaction between magnetic forces and the flow of ionized gases. It is relevant to advanced propulsion systems for spacecraft, where electromagnetic forces accelerate propellant to high velocities.
