Numerical Study on the Effect of Anode Position on the Performance of Disk MHD Generator
DEStech Transactions on Environment, Energy and Earth Sciences, 2018 The unsteady-state quasi-one-dimensional numerical simulations of the disk MHD generator have been conducted for various anode position. The results indicate that the non-equilibrium ionization instability of the plasma can be effectively suppressed by ...
