High Pressure Gas Driven Liquid Metal MHD Homopolar Generator

Method for Pressure Driven Mhd Duct Flow

In this paper, ve investigate the flov of a viscous, Incompresslble, electrlcally conducting fluld through a rectangular duct in the presence of a magnetic fleld, when one of the boundaries perpedlcular to the umgnetlc field is partly conducting and partly Insu/atlng, by a modified Boundary Integral Hethod. Three problems are considered (1) flov through an infinite channel, (li) flov through a ...

Computational studies of thermoelectric MHD driven liquid lithium flow in metal trenches

The LiMIT system (Lithium/Metal Infused Trenches) is an innovative plasma-facing component for tokamak divertors, recently proposed at the University of Illinois. Thanks to the coupling of two metals having different Seebeck coefficients, the device is able to generate internal thermoelectric currents as a response to an incoming heat flux from the plasma. One of the two metals is liquid lithiu...

MHD Simulations for Studies of Disruption Mitigation by High Pressure Noble Gas Injection

The problem of disruptions is a major challenge for ITER which establishes engineering and operational limits. MHD simulations including radiation and atomic physics have the capability of extending results of mitigation experiments on present devices to accurate predictions for ITER. The role of MHD in cases where impurity penetration is shallow is seen in a series of Alcator C-Mod simulations...
