Abstract
Early power runs of the closed cycle MHD blowdown facility at Eindhoven University of Technology yielded significant enthalpy extractions; subsequently, however, power output varied from run to run. While the pressure increase at the end of the generator was in the past considered a major cause of power extraction limitation, recent data analyses support the conclusion that this pressure increase is not due to power extraction, but to electrical shortcircuiting in the supersonic diffuser. Low self-inductance is also found to be important.
