Two different orderings for the flow velocity, comparable to the poloidal Alfv?n velocity and comparable to the poloidal sound velocity, are considered. For a poloidal-Alfv?nic flow, the two-fluid equilibrium equations with hot ion effects are shown to have a singularity that is shifted by the gyroviscous cancellation from the Alfv?n singularity found in singlefluid magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) when the poloidal flow velocity equals the poloidal Alfv?n velocity. For a poloidal-sonic flow, a reduced single-fluid model is used to derive a set of equilibrium equations that includes higher-order terms. The singularity at a poloidal flow velocity equal to the poloidal sound velocity is recovered in the higher order equations.}, title = {High-beta axisymmetric equilibria with flow in reduced single-fluid and two-fluid models}, volume = {Vol.3}, year = {2008} }
