Abstract:We present compatible finite element space discretizations for the ideal compressible magnetohydrodynamic equations. The magnetic field is considered both in div- and curl-conforming spaces, leading to a strongly or weakly preserved zero-divergence condition, respectively. The equations are discretized in space such that transfers between the kinetic, internal, and magnetic energies are consistent, leading to a preserved total energy. We also discuss further adjustments to the discretization required to additionally achieve magnetic helicity preservation. Finally, we describe new transport stabilization methods for the magnetic field equation which maintain the zero-divergence and energy conservation properties, including one method which also preserves magnetic helicity. The methods' preservation and improved stability properties are confirmed numerically using a steady state and a magnetic dynamo test case.
