The basic equations to be solved are the magnetohydrodynamical equations
and the Poisson equation for the gravitational potential.
In cylindrical coordinates (, , )
with
, the equations are expressed as follows:
|
(B.11) |
|
(B.14) |
|
(B.15) |
|
(B.16) |
|
(B.17) |
|
(B.18) |
where the variables have their ordinary meanings.
Equation (B.11) is the continuity equation;
equations (B.12), (B.13) and (B.14) are the
equations of motion.
The induction equations for the poloidal magnetic fields are
equations (B.15) and (B.16) and for the toroidal magnetic field
is equation (B.17).
The last equation (B.18) is the Poisson equation.
