Introduction
Concept given by Michael Faraday in 1832 for the first time.
MHD System widely used in advanced
countries.
Under construction in INDIA.
Need of MHDs
At present a plenty of energy is needed to sustain industrial and agricultural production, and the existing conventional energy sources like coal, oil, uranium etc are not adequate to meet the ever increasing energy demands. Consequently, efforts have been made for harnessing energy from several nonconventional energy sources like Magneto Hydro Dynamics(MHD) System.
Principle Of MHD Power Generation
Faraday’s law of electromagnetic induction : When an electric conductor moves across a magnetic field, an emf is induced in it, which produces an electric current .
Lorentz Force
F = q(v × B)
on the charged particle (vector),
where, v = velocity of the particle (vector) q= charge of the particle (scalar) B = magnetic field (vector)

Types of MHD SYSTEM
OPEN CYCLE MHD SYSTEM
HYBRID MHD STEAM PART OPEN CYCLE
CLOSED CYCLE MHD SYSTEM
DIFFERENCE BETWEEN OPEN CYCLE AND CLOSED CYCLE SYSTEM
Open Cycle System
Closed Cycle System
Working fluid after generating electrical energy is discharged to the atmosphere through a stack . Operation of MHD generator is done directly on combustion products . Temperature requirement : 2300˚C to 2700˚C. More developed.
Working fluid is recycled to the heat sources and thus is used again. Helium or argon(with cesium seeding) is used as the working fluid. Temperature requirement : about 530˚C. Less developed.
