Abstract

A treatment is presented of the possibility of using a high-velocity ionized gas stream in magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) power generation. The processes leading to abnormal ionization in flames are discussed. Some of the problems involved in gaseous MHD generators are outlined. The energy transfer mechanism between charged and uncharged particles in a strong magnetic field is considered. It is concluded that a more sophisticated thermodynamic cycle than that of the simple linear, crossed field MHD generator is needed. (D.L.C.)
