Constraint preserving boundary conditions for the Ideal Newtonian MHD equations
We study and develop constraint preserving boundary conditions for the Newtonian magnetohydrodynamic equations and analyze the behavior of the numerical solution upon considering different possible options. We concentrate on both the standard ideal MHD system and the one augmented by a pseudo potential to control the divergence free constraint. We show how the boundary conditions developed significantly reduce the violations generated at the boundaries at the numerical level and how lessen their influence in the interior of the computational domain by making use of the available freedom in the equations.
