Abstract

1,006,799. Generators operating by electromagnetic interaction with fluids. ELECTRITE DE FRANCE. Feb. 28, 1963 [March 13, 1962], No. 8166/63. Drawings to Specification. Heading H2A. At least one electrode of a magnetohydrodynamic generator is designed to have an increased area of contact with the plasma and furthermore a surface shape to increase its power to inject electrons into the plasma. The electrode surface is provided with parallel grooves, the direction of the grooves being perpendicular to that of the magnetic field, i.e. they lie in the direction of flow of the gas. The grooves may be rectangular, semi-circular or hexagonal.
