Abstract

Using the controlled divertor plasma, a new tensorial form for the plasma electrical conductivity is derived, and design criteria are obtained for the induced current density, power output and efficiency for an ideal MHD generator. Taking into account end effects of the MHD generator channel and with controlled tensorial electrical conductivity due to perfect divertor role, improved design conditions for the induced current density, power output, and efficiency as well as conditions for peak limits are established. Under an intensive applied magnetic field and with ideal divertor performance, including total removal of impurities from divertor channel, the principle of magnetic boundary layer in securing voltage induced in the MHD generator is verified.
