METHOD FOR THE PRODUCTION OF ELECTRIC ENERGY AND MHD GENERATOR THEREFOR

摘要

The invention is directed at increasing output, reliability and environmenta l safety of MHD generators as well as at simplifying the design of said generators. The inventive method for the production of energy comprises the following steps: a polar liquid (8) is circulated in a predetermined directi on along a hermetically sealed toroidal channel (1) by means of a travelling magnetic field, and electric power is collected by means of electromagnetic winding. The liquid is ionized at least at the stage of launching, by means of electrodes (4), for example. The internal walls (2) of the channel have a dielectric constant which is higher than the dielectric constant of said liquid.
