THE EQUATIONS OF A MAGNETOHYDRODYNAMIC ALTERNATING-CURRENT GENERATOR HAVING A ROTATING MAGNETIC FIELD

Abstract

The development of power-station engineering is the direct conversion of energy from gas flow into electrical energy in the form of alternating current in an electrodeless MHD generator with a rotating magnetic field. Alternating current from this generator can have a very high voltage, which makes it possible to dispense with step-up transformers. The power of the generator is not limited by structure, but is determined by the delivery of the working body, and can be tens of millions of kilowatts per unit. The schematics of generators with a rotating motor are described.
