THE MHD-PLASMA GENERATORS AND IONIC LEVITATING VEHICLES
(Magneto-hydrodynamics) - Plasma power generating technology was designed by the Company
primarily for aerospace and space propulsion systems. In addition, directed energy technology for high
power lasers gave an opportunity for new domestic markets. These were addressed for the
automotive industry for electric cars that not only could drive without traditional fuels (including
hydrogen as in the fuel cell) or charges, but also with ZERO EXHAUST for up to three (3) years
without recharge or refueling, (just under 500,000 miles with a single charge).
Peeker Aerospace, Transportation Division, designs power generating cells for automobiles, trucks
and buses that are pre-packed to last three years of continuous operations with power capacities from
120 hp (89 kWe) for DC motors and up to 620 hp (460 kWe). Custom designed units are developed on
special order for OEM customers.
The transport vehicle of the future is the ionic levitating vehicles without wheels. The principal of
specially designed vehicles that can levitate and flow on air with distributed thrust over the bottom
area of the vehicles has been demonstrated as early as 1964 by a Russian-American engineer.
Seversky demonstrated in 1964 (US Patent No. 3,130,945) that a body heavier than air could levitate
at low and high altitude by means of ionic propulsion using high electrical systems for ionization. His
wood frame vehicle was connected via a cable to a ground generator and it was flown, as
witnessed and photographed in the Popular Mechanics Magazine (August 1964), inside a large New
York aircraft hangar. Seversky demonstrated that a power source of 0.96 hp (0.716 kW) from a
DC generator can lift straight up and levitate an object of one (1) lb (454 grams) in weight. This
means that in reality, if one can have an electrical generator that can lift itself and then some
additional weight the problem of levitating heavier than air objects is resolved without polluting or
damaging the environment.
Peeker designers developed a concept vehicle that should theoretically lift at least 2,200 pounds of
wight or 1000 kilograms, using a 2,000 kWe MHD-Plasma generator. Such a unit would be silent
and lift itself , as per above design, with less than 0.350 pound force of pressure per square inch or
less than 25 grams per square centimeter.
Such an Ionic Levitating Vehicles (ILV) would be a simple and light weight electrically steered device
and unlike conventional vehicles will have no transmission, and no regular engine. An acceptable
transport automobile, without wheels, using ionic levitation would hover some 2-3 feet above ground,
with no need of traditional highways and/or paved roads, it will hover above any type of terrain, and will
have a cruse limitation measured in years, not miles. Given the power capacity between 2 and 3 MW,
such a device can also be used to network power generation into any grid via a Power Generation
Networking System.
The cost to drive this type of vehicle on air would be equivalent to the consumption of electricity
provided by the MHD-Plasma power generators. Since the IPAC generators may provide power for
as much as three years the cost to operate such a vehicle should be very affordable and much less
than the conventional devices available on the market today, including the hybrids.
Peeker Aerospace - Transportation Division is also developing MHD-Plasma pumps technology and
MHD engines for marine propulsion applications. The MHD-Plasma generators can be integrated
with large electromagnets or superconductor magnets to move large amount of liquids that conduct
electricity for a variety of applications, from sea water pumping, to molted metal transportation, to
marine power engines.
