Abstract
We have considered finitely segmented, Faraday-type and combustion gas driven MHD generators. Accounting for the finite electrode segmentation effect and the nonuniformity of gas in the channel, we have derived an expression for the gas dynamic drop for a turbulent boundary layer. Combining the electrical sheath drop, discussed in brief, with the gas dynamic drop, we have evaluated the electrode voltage drop for two experimental runs of MHD generators. The computed results are compared and found to be in good agreement with other evaluations.
