Helium and argon are used as driver and driven gas respectively in a shock tunnel. Equilibrium contact surface operating mode is used to obtain high temperature gas, and the conductivity is obtained by adding seed K2CO3 powder into the driven section. Under the conditions of nozzle inlet total pressure being 0.32 MPa, total temperature 6 504 K, magnetic field density about 0.5 T and nozzle outlet velocity 1 959 m/s, induction voltage and short-circuit current of the segmentation MHD power generation channel are measured, and the experimental results agree with theoretical calculations; the average conductivity is about 20 S/m calculated from characteristics of voltage and current. When load factor is 0.5, the maximum power density of the MHD power generation channel reaches 4.797 1 MW/m3, and the maximum enthalpy extraction rate is 0.34%. Finally, the principle and method of indirect testing for gas state parameters are derived and analyzed.展开更多

The numerical algorithm used is composed of an entropy conditioned scheme for solving the non-homogeneous Navier-Stokes equations, in conjunction with an SOR method for solving the elliptic equation governing the electrical potential of the electric field. It is found that Hall effects may lead to distortions in both the flow field and electric field in the MHD converging channel. The electric current lines are distorted and induce eddy currents, which will be mitigated by Hall effects. Comparisons of parameters characterizing the performance of the MHD generator for different geometry also reveal that the Hall effects may deteriorate the performance of MHD generator, especially for converging channel.展开更多

We chose the quiet CPS crossing by Cluster C1 during the interval 08:51:00–09:19:00 UT on 03 August 2001. In the central plasma sheet, thermal pressure energy per unit mass is the most important part in MBI, and kinetic energy of fluid motion and electromagnetic energy per unit mass are less important. In the MBI, there are many peaks, which correspond to isothermal or near isothermal processes. The interval lengths of homogenous MBI regions are generally less than 1 min. The polytropic indexes are calculated by linearly fitting the data of lnp and lnn within a 16 s window, which is shifted forward by 8 s step length. Those polytropic indexes with |R|≥0.8(R is the correlation coefficient between lnp and lnn) and p-value≤0.1 in the homogeneous regions are almost all in the range of [0, 1]. The mean and median effective polytropic indexes with high R and low p-value in homogeneous regions are 0.34 and 0.32 respectively, which are much different from the polytropic index obtained by traditional method(?trad=?0.15). This result indicates that the CPS is not uniform even during quiet time and the blanket applications of polytropic law to plasma sheet may return misleading value of polytropic index. The polytropic indexes in homogeneous regions with a high correlation coefficient basically have good regression significance and are thus credible. These results are very important to understand the energy transport in magnetotail in the MHD frame.展开更多
