We study the effect of nova magnetodipole fields on the dynamics and structure of ejected shells by using a numerical model based on the kinetic-hydrodynamic description of plasma dynamics. Our calculations show that characteristic nonuniformities appear in the distribution of field and plasma perturbations during super-Alfvén shell expansion in the circumstellar medium.
