ABSTRACT:
In combustion fired magnetohydrodynamic power systems conventional fuels such as coal, oil, natural gas and the like are first completely burned, and then shock waves are generated in the combustion products by means of small amounts of explosives which are preferably initiated by pulsed lasers. Thus, highly ionized particles of great flow velocities are obtained which are supplied into a usual MHD generator to induce a ripple current in a load circuit at high efficiency.
