Preliminary results in the NASA Lewis H2-O2 combustion MHD experiment [PDF]
MHD (magnetohydrodynamic) power generation experiments were carried out in the NASA Lewis Research Center cesium-seeded H2-O2 combustion facility. This facility uses a neon-cooled cryomagnet capable of producing magnetic fields in excess of 5 tesla.

Solar driven liquid metal MHD power generator [PDF]
, 1983 A solar energy collector focuses solar energy onto a solar oven which is attached to a mixer which in turn is attached to the channel of a MHD generator. Gas enters the oven and a liquid metal enters the mixer.

Effect of velocity overshoot on the performance of magnetohydrodynamic subsonic diffusers [PDF]
The evolution of an overshoot velocity distribution was studied in a plane two dimensional diffuser as a function of diffuser divergence angle. The diffuser performance for velocity overshoot was compared to that for a fully developed inlet velocity ...
