Abstract
Magnetohydrodynamic generator channel scaling analyses have been performed to establish the effect of generator size and oxygen enrichment on channel performance. These studies have shown that MHD generator channels can be designed to operate efficiently over the range of 250 to 2135. The optimum design conditions for each of the thermal inputs were established by investigating various combinations of electrical load parameters, pressure ratios, magnetic field profiles, and channel lengths. From these parameter variations the set of conditions producing the optimum performance was selected for the design point. These results provide design flexibility for the baseload combined cycle MHD/steam powerplant.
