| 摘要 |
A method and an apparatus are disclosed which enable conversion of geothermal energy into electrical energy using the principles of magnetohydrodynamics (MHD). A hot, electrically conductive fluid produced from a geothermal resource either naturally or by artificial means, is passed under pressure through a suitable nozzle designed to increase the kinetic energy of the fluid, and then into a MHD duct where a portion of the kinetic energy is converted into electrical energy and extracted.
