ABSTRACT:
There is provided a magnetohydrodynamics system which utilizes liquid metal or alloy moving in a channel through a magnetic field to generate electricity. Energy is put into the system by pumping the liquid metal to an elevated collection zone. A portion of the liquid metal is collected in a cooling zone where a solid metal outer skin is formed in the shape of a piston. Pressure is applied to the bottom of the piston to move the piston and a portion of the remaining liquid metal to the collection zone where the metal is heated thus remelting the piston and cycle is repeated.
