“…The generator is the core of the oil power generation system, and its performance directly affects the operation of the oil power generation system. The performance comparison of various motors is shown in Table 1 [6][7][8]. By comparing the performance of various types of motors in the above table, it can be seen that the permanent magnet synchronous generator has great advantages.…”

“…Moreover, a new series of numerical and experimental research has been presented recently in [18], where another conduction-type liquid metal MHD generator, coupled with a thermoacoustic motor, is constructed with InGaSn as a working body. In [19], a three-stage thermoacoustic engine implementation into the MHD power generator is described. In [20], a mathematical model for the MHD plasma generator, coupled with thermoacoustics, is provided.…”

In this paper, an electrical generator is presented for the exploitation of alternating energy. Some renewable sources are directly available in such forms, such as the wave power obtainable from the sea, but most of them can be converted to alternative forms; therefore, the proposed generator can be applied to different kinds of renewable sources. In particular, the proposed system is thought to be coupled with a thermoacoustic engine, which converts heat into mechanical vibration without using solid moving parts. This opens the proposed system to the use of most thermal sources, such as solar radiation, waste recovery, geothermic, car exhaust, and others. The object of of this present work concerns the transformation of alternating mechanical energy into electricity by using a specific type of magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) disk generator. The functioning of this generator is based on the interaction between a DC magnetic field embedded in a disk structure and a conducting fluid held in an inner channel. A simplified model of the generator is presented here, and a sensitivity analysis is performed. It is shown that, under specific operating conditions, the efficiency of the system can reach 70% with a level of power of hundreds of watts.
