Two-dimensional plasma flows are calculated in the approximation of strong magnetic field for the case of stationary reconnection in a thin current layer with attached MHD discontinuities. The specific features of this approximation (Somov B.V., Plasma Astrophysics, Part I, Fundamentals and Practice, Second Edition, Chapter 14, Springer SBM, 2012, New York) are discussed. The global structure of magnetic field in the reconnection region is taken from the analytical solution by Bezrodnykh et al. (Bezrodnykh S.I., Vlasov V.I., Somov B.V., “Generalized analytical models of Syrovatskii's current sheet”. Astronomy Letters, 37 (2), 113-130, 2011).
