Construction of a Multi-Dimensional Lagrangian Hydrodynamics Model of a Plasma Using the Lie Group Theory of Point Transformations

The translation conservation laws were used in a two-dimensional computer simulation of the confined eddy problem to demonstrate an application of the equations. Comparison of the results produced by the code using the conservation law governing equations with previous work is limited to qualitative comparison since differences in the numerical input and graphics software make direct quantitative comparison impossible. Qualitative comparison with previous work show the results to be consistent.
