Fluid Dynamic Studies with a Magnetohydrodynamic Generator

Abstract: The results of a study of fluid mechanics of a large linear magnetohydrodynamic generator with a field strength of 33 000G are presented. The experiment was designed to fulfill three requirements; predominant Lorenz force, important Hall effects, and substantial changes in the electrical and thermodynamic properties of the gas. Studies of the electrical properties of the fluid of the effects of the surface temperature and geometry of the electrodes are described. The performance of the generator… Show more

“…In an MHD generator, aerodynamic steady state is achieved approximately one second after full burner flow has been established (Ref. 7). Since this is the case, and in order to minimize cost and thermal expansion effects and maximize flexibility, a heat-sink, peg-wall channel will be provided for initial examination of generator efficiency.…”

“…Magnetohydrodynamic (MDH) effect is a physical phenomenon that describes the motion of charge conducting fluid flowing which his influenced by an external magnetic field. Its applications have been studied extensively across multiple disciplines ranging from the study of solar winds [1,2] to MHD-driven biomedical sensors [3] and actuators [4][5][6][7]. This chapter narrows the focus of MHD applications to biomedical sciences.…”

“…Adaptive optics (AO) enables correcting of complex aberrations for a broad range of applications [1,2]. Conventional AO systems use spatial light modulators [3,4] or solid deformable mirrors (DM) [5,6] to compensate the phase changes resulting from non-uniformity in the properties of the medium through which light travels or from faults in the geometry of the component. There is two types of spatial light modulators operating in reflective and transmission modes.…”
