👉 The M-B fluid, also known as magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) fluid, is a theoretical model used to describe the behavior of electrically conducting fluids, such as plasmas or liquid metals, in the presence of magnetic fields. This fluid combines properties of both liquids and gases but is distinguished by its ability to conduct electricity, allowing it to interact with magnetic fields in a way that classical fluid dynamics cannot. In MHD, the movement of charged particles within the fluid generates electric currents, which in turn produce magnetic fields that influence the fluid's motion. This interplay is crucial for understanding phenomena in astrophysics, such as solar dynamics and stellar magnetic fields, as well as in industrial applications like liquid metal cooling in nuclear reactors and fusion devices.
