OpenFOAM computational fluid dynamics (CFD) solver for magnetohydrodynamic open cycles, applied to the Sakhalin pulsed magnetohydrodynamic generator (PMHDG) [PDF]
In the current study, we present a mathematical and computational fluid dynamics (CFD) model for simulating open-cycle linear Faraday-type continuous-electrode channels of magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) power generators, operating on combustion plasma.

Swift generator for three-dimensional magnetohydrodynamic turbulence
Magnetohydrodynamic turbulence is central to laboratory and astrophysical plasmas, and is invoked for interpreting many observed scalings. Verifying predicted scaling law behavior requires extreme-resolution direct numerical simulations (DNS), with needed computing resources excluding systematic parameter surveys.

Seawater Magnetohydrodynamics Power Generator / Hydrogen Generator [PDF]
A seawater magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) power generator / hydrogen generator is expected to become popular with the development of superconducting technology because of low loss and high efficiency. We have designed a new helical-type seawater MHD generator using a solenoid superconducting magnet, by considering the experimental results for a helical ...

Magnetohydrodynamic generators using two-phase liquid-metal flows [PDF]
Two-phase flow generator cycle of a magnetohydrodynamic /MHD/ generator uses a working fluid which is compressible and treated as an expanding gas. The two-phase mixture passes from the heat source through the MHD generator, where the expansion process ...
