Abstract
The local and integral characteristics of flat MHD channels are studied with allowance for longitudinal and transverse edge effects and heterogeneities in the distributions of conductivity and stream velocity. An analysis is made of the effect of the finite dimensions of the insulating inserts in the longitudinal edge effect and of the modular construction of the side wall in the transverse edge effect on the output parameters of MHD channels. The solution of the problem is based on reduction of the initial quasilinear elliptical equation for the electrical potential with allowance for Ohm's law to an integral equation of the Fredholm type relative to the current density.
