Similarity solution for isothermal flow behind the magnetogasdynamic cylindrical shock wave in a rotating non-ideal gas with the effect of the gravitational field Swati Chauhan, Deepika Singh, Rajan Arora Physics of Fluids, 2022 In this paper, we investigate a system of quasilinear hyperbolic partial differential equations, which describes the propagation of cylindrical shock waves in a rotating non-ideal gas with the effects of the gravitational field and the axial magnetic field. It is assumed that the flow is isothermal. The Lie group of transformations is used to generate the self-similar solutions of the considered problem in the medium of uniform density. The axial and azimuthal components of fluid velocity and magnetic field are supposed to be varying. We find the generators of the Lie group of transformations by employing the invariant surface criteria. We discovered four alternative solutions by selecting the arbitrary constants indicated in the generators' phrase. Only in three out of these four cases, the self-similar solutions exist. Two types of shock paths appear while solving the above cases. The power-law shock path appears in the first and third cases, while the exponential-law shock path appears in the second case. To find self-similar solutions, these cases have been solved numerically. We graphically show the distributions of flow variables behind the shock wave so that we can observe the effect on flow variables of the various values of the non-ideal parameter, Alfvén Mach number, adiabatic exponent, gravitational parameter, and ambient azimuthal velocity exponent. For the computational task, we used “MATLAB” software.
Study of shocks in a nonideal dusty gas using Maslov, Guderley, and CCW methods for shock exponents Swati Chauhan, Antim Chauhan, Rajan Arora Zeitschrift Fur Naturforschung Section A Journal of Physical Sciences, 2021 In this work, we consider the system of partial differential equations describing one-dimensional (1D) radially symmetric (i.e., cylindrical or spherical) flow of a nonideal gas with small solid dust particles. We analyze the implosion of cylindrical and spherical symmetric strong shock waves in a mixture of a nonideal gas with small solid dust particles. An evolution equation for the strong cylindrical and spherical shock waves is derived by using the Maslov technique based on the kinematics of 1D motion. The approximate value of the similarity exponent describing the behavior of strong shocks is calculated by applying a first-order truncation approximation. The obtained approximate values of similarity exponent are compared with the values of the similarity exponent obtained from Whitham’s rule and Guderley’s method. All the above computations are performed for the different values of mass fraction of dust particles, relative specific heat, and the ratio of the density of dust particle to the density of the mixture and van der Waals excluded volume.
