Electrical conduction in metals and the Hall Effect are two examples. In an electric motor
for example, the magnetic field produced by the armature current affects the operation of
the motor in an important way, so that the mechanical and electrical analyses are coupled,
just as in MHD. Electromagnetic forces are an essential part of motors and generators,
though they generally do not produce significant elastic deformations and the motions
occur with the help of rotating and sliding contacts. Homopolar generators (ones that produce
DC currents) are, indeed, closely related to MHD systems.
Our Systems (PMG Technology):
A number of proprietary mixed materials are exposed to atomic deformation through internal
radiation which are later exposed while migrating from one end to the other to a strong
magnetic field (MHD). This magnetic field yields a current potential and voltages exceeding
1,000 volts per meter. With cycling length of 200 meter per second, the generator yields very
large power outputs per device ~0.02 cubic meter volume (or approximately 18 inches by 12
inches by 6 inches) - 1 MW.
In practice a number of issues must be considered in the implementation of a conventional MHD
generator; these are:
Generator efficiency,
Technical engineering problems, and
Toxic byproducts.
This closed-cycle MHD generation of electricity through atomic conversion of energy resoles
these issues and offers the potential for high efficiency (up to 70%) with considerably lower
peak cycle temperatures, lower pressure ratios, and lower average magnetic-flux density.
Furthermore, the super-heated gases passing the magnetic field are cooled internally and
returned for repetitive cycle of atomic energy conversion. Beside potential and optional
external cooling by gases or liquids, the process of internal cooling would allow
the construction of relatively small but scalable power-cell devices, which could operate in a
lower as well as a higher electrical and kinetic energy generation spectrum. In general, the
device as described here can be used in many applications:
A number of products for generation of electricity have been proposed from powers starting
around 10 kW to 12 MW, in modules. Due to their very compact nature, it is possible that
these units may be stacked to powers up to 3,000 MW in a single cluster.
The lack of on-line fueling reduces the cost of electricity production giving the PMG
generator the designed logistic mobility for a number of applications including defense and
significant advantage over the present competition.
