Abstract
In the three years that have elapsed since the last Symposium on Magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) Electrical Power Generation, held in Warsaw, substantial progress has been made in the research and development of plasma and liquid-metal closed-cycle MHD systems. Both of these systems have relevance to the potential application of advanced, high-temperature nuclear power reactors as heat sources for MHD energy conversion. For fossil-fuelled open-cycle systems, engineering development has advanced to the prototype stage. Such were the conclusions made at the Fifth International MHD Conference, which was held in Munich from 19 to 23 April 1971 and attended by over 250 participants from 25 countries. At this conference, which brought together experts from all the major MHD development programs in the world, notably those in the USSR, USA, F.R. of Germany and Japan, 115 papers were presented.
