The technique is based on a method of generation of a volumetric magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) force in a fluid affected by constant electric currents and constant magnetic field supplied by the open external magnetic systems of various geometries. Examples of the generation of two- and three-vortex structures are used for consideration of their interaction peculiarities in conditions of variable MHD forces excited in rectangular and triangular flat containers. Discussion is provided to verify that the technique simulating the hydrodynamic phenomena can be broadly encountered in nature and in various applications. %8 1999-06-01
