Abstract
1,015,170. Generators operating by electromagnetic interaction with fluids. WESTING- HOUSE ELECTRIC CORPORATION. Oct. 13, 1964 [Oct. 23, 1963], No. 41720/64. Heading H2A. A magnetohydrodynamic generator has an annular duct formed by concentric outer and inner tubular walls and with electrodes disposed on the walls and means for producing a circumferential flux in the duct. Generating duct portion 10 of the system shown comprises concentric cylindrical inner and outer walls 14, 16 of stainless steel lined with zirconia, with electrode layers 22, 24 of zirconium boride or fluidcooled metal, bounding annular duct 42. Inlet and outlet extensions 26, 28 are connected to the generating portions through insulating spacers 30, 32. A circumferential magnetic field is produced in the duct by current flowing in longitudinal wires 44 housed in the inner tubular wall space 12. Seeded combustion products from combustion chamber 11 are used as the working fluid and the seed may be reclaimed prior to exhaust. In a modification the duct walls may be cone-shaped to provide a duct with increasing cross-sectional area. A number of ducts may be connected in electrical series and use a common magnetizing conductor.
