    This document summarizes a seminar on magneto hydro dynamic (MHD) power generation delivered by Atul S. Kapre and conducted by Dr. Surendra Kothari of the Department of Renewable Energy Engineering at CTAE, MPUAT, Udaipur. The topics covered include the introduction, principle of working, types of MHD systems, design problems and development, and advantages of MHD power generation. MHD directly converts the heat energy of fuel into electrical energy using a conducting fluid such as ionized gas that flows through a magnetic field.

    TOPICS TO BE COVERED

    T INTRODUCTION
    O PRINCIPLE OF WORKING
    P TYPES OF MHD SYSTEMS
    I DESIGN PROBLEMS AND DEVELOPMENT
    C ADVANTAGES
    INTRODUCTION

    Total electricity energy production:


    - 80% by Thermal, hydral
    - 20% by MHD, nuclear, Solar,
    In India constructed at Trichi in Tamilnadu by
    BARC and BHEL.
    MHD is a flow of conducting fluid in presence of
    magnetic and electric field.
    MHD generator is a device for converting heat
    energy of fuel directly into electrical energy.
    It is having design output of 1000 MW.
    Principle of MHD generation

    Based on faraday law of


    electromagnetic
    induction.

    Use gaseous conductor-


    an ionized gas.

    Plasma
    Induced e.m.f.
    Magnetic field

    Principle of MHD conversion


    SEEDING

    Way of increasing the conductivity of gas.


    Without an increase in temperature.
    Introducing a material with ionization potential
    lower than that of gas atoms.
    Seeding material used cesium, potassium.
    Conductivity achieved between 10-100 mhos/m in
    temperature 2000-2400 oK.
    MHD SYSTEM

    Types:
    OPEN CYCLE SYSTEM
    CLOSED CYCLE SYSTEM

    OPEN CYCLE SYSTEM


    Working fluid is used as once through basis
    Discharge to atmosphere through stack

    CLOSED CYCLE SYSTEM


    Working fluid is continuously recerculated
    Fuel is reheated and supplied to converter
    OPEN CYCLE SYSTEM
    OPEN CYCLE SYSTEM

    Outline

    Working fluid used – heated, ionized air.

    Hot gases offer seeding and can be directly used


    as a working fluid.

    High working efficiency and better thermal


    efficiency can achieved.

    Produce a direct current converted to A.C. by


    converter.
    CLOSED CYCLE SYSTEM
    CLOSED CYCLE SYSTEM

    Outline

    Heat source and working fluid are independent.

    Working fluid is Argon and Helium with Cesium


    seeding.

    Gas is compressed and heat is supplied by fuel.

    Heat source used is gas cooled nuclear reactor.

    Heat is transferred to the fluid through heat


    exchanger.
    MHD DESIGN PROBLEMS AND
    DEVELOPMENT
    Problems:

    Lower efficiency attained.


    Life of equipment is short due to corrosion by hot
    combustion gases e.g. generator channel, electrode,
    air preheater.
    Separation of seed material from fly ash is difficult
    and re-conversion is difficult.
    Development:

    To use hydrogen gas made from coal and water,


    when it burned with oxygen the product is high
    temperature steam to drive the turbine.
    Advantages of MHD system

    A HIGH CONVERSION EFFICENCY


    D LARGE AMOUNT OF POWER GENERATION
    V NO MOVING PARTS
    A POWER POLLUTION FREE
    N ABILITY TO REACH FULL POWER LEVEL
    T SIZE OF PLANT IS SMALLER

    A LOWER OPERATIONAL COST

    G
    REDUCE LOSSES OF ENENRGY

    E
    BETTER FUEL UTILIZATION
