Book Description
The objective of this experimental research, started late in 1973, is to demonstrate the attainment of MHD performance ona sufficiently large scale to verify that the projected efficiency of the commercial MHD concept is attainable. To perform the experiment, an existing facility at the Arnold Engineering Development Center (USAF) was refurbished and the new systems required for performing the experiment have been designed and built. In particular, the largest systems which have required the greatest expenditure of resources are the generator channel and the 6 Tesla (T) cryogenically cooled magnet. Both of these systems are now complete and the magnet has been tested at low field strengths. During the period between April 1, 1979, and June 30, 1979, the assembly operations on the magnet and its cryogenic cooling system were completed. The pressure testing of the generator channel was completed and the channel was installed in the magnet to facilitate final alignment of the burner. The diffuser assembly operations were completed. The magnet was retested in the warm mode, repeating the tests performed in December 1978 during wich an arc-over occurred. No problems were encountered in the latest tests and the magnet was subsequently cooled to 165°K and pulsed to a peak field strength of 2.9 T. Analytic studies of the operation of the generator with supersonic flow at low magnetic fields were started and are continuing.
