A two-dimensional stationary system of nonlinear magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) equations in a thin layer adjoining the front of the interplanetary shock wave has been solved. Previously, any available publications relied on linear transport equations. But the presence of high-energy particles in the solar wind (SW) requires taking into account the processes of self-interaction. Our analysis examines the nonlinear terms in the MHD equations. A solution has been constructed for three cases: (1) in the absence of magnetic reconnections; (2) for magnetic reconnections; and (3) with the simultaneous action of reconnections and junction of magnetic islands. In all three cases, expressions were found for the main parameters of the SW. The results obtained on the basis of the solution of the MHD equations are consistent with the conclusions based on the investigation of the particle velocity distribution functions. This makes it possible to confirm the previously established fraction of particles excited to energies above 1 MeV.
