It is extremely important to clarify the deviations from the ordinary laws of hydrodynamics caused by magnetic fields. W. HEISENBERG, in Problems of Cosmical Aerodynamics, Proceedings of Symposium "Problems of motion of gaseous masses of cosmical dimensions", Paris, August 1949.
A clearer understanding of turbulent hydromagetic flows will result in greater insight into stricty hydrodynamic turbulence and into the mechanism of transition between laminar and turbulent flow regimesL.P. HARRIS, Hydromagnetic channel flows, Wiley, 1960, p.2

Compared with some other branches of fluid mechanics, there is relatively litle basic research in turbulence at the moment, yet it may be more than any time in the past. Probably not more than fifty people in the world are active in the field. This is in sharp contrast, for example, to the fascinating, fashionable and important new area of "magnetohydrodynamics" or plasma dynamics", probably pursued by thousands. S. CORRSIN (1961) Turbulent flow, American scientist, 49, p. 322.

We may say that the two-dimensional flow "does not see" a uniform field. In a strong external field, the turbulence degenerates just into this two-dimensional form. LANDAU AND LANDAU AND LIFSHITZLIFSHITZ , 1981
Flows in such configurations (i.e. without Hartmann walls) are of particular interest due to the well known fact that a pure 2D flow does not interact with a homogenous magnetic field orthogonal to the plane of the flow. In other words, the 2D flow in such a configuration is a solution of the ordinaryNavier-Stokes equations at arbitrary Rm.
The cleanest way to observe the process of two-dimensionalization can be achieved in the total absence of the Hartmann walls. Experimentally this can be done in an axi-symmetric configuration with an azimuthal magnetic field in the form B � r. Such a not curl-free field can be realized by applying an uniform electric current by means of electrodes located up/downstream of the working section with the expectation that their influence on the flow in the working section would be negligible (Tsinober 1990)

ANISOTROPY IS DIVERSEQ2D MHD turbulent flows created in different conditions may be essentially qualitatively different, e.g. inertialess and nonlinear and different from pure two-dimensional flows.
The problem of the relation(s) between Q2D and P2D turbulent flows is complicated further by the multiplicity of Q2D states: there exist several Q2D flows such as flows in rotating frames, flows with stable density stratification, MHD-flows and some others, which along with being similar kinematically (geometrically) in many respects are very different dynamically. There is little doubt about the qualitative difference between Q2D states produced by physically different processes, e.g. the ones in MHD are of dissipative nature (Joule dissipation), whereas those with rotation are not. Strong anisotropy is a necessary condition only for Q2D and/or low dissipative behavior, e.g. shear turbulent flows with strong shear are both strongly anisotropic and strongly dissipative. Similarly, strong correlations along some direction, i.e. Q2D behavior, do not exclude the possibility of vorticity stretching in this direction.
