| Реферат: | eng: The so-called reduced magnetohydrodynamics, which deals with the motion of incompressible fluids and is usually applied to describe plasma flows in a strong toroidal magnetic field, has a number of drawbacks and, in some cases, fails to produce correct results. The equations proposed here are simpler than the original MHD equations and are free of these drawbacks. These equations, like reduced MHD equations, make it possible to remove from consideration fast magnetosonic waves and to introduce the vector potential for the poloidal magnetic field. However, our equations differ from the reduced MHD equations in that they completely incorporate slow magnetosonic waves, the specific features of the toroidal geometry, and the effects of the toroidal velocity.
