ANALISIS KARAKTERISTIK MAGNETOHYDRODYNAMICS GENERATOR DENGAN CHANNEL DIAGONAL

Abstract

Magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) is science which studies the dynamic movement of electrically conductive fluid to the influence of a magnetic field around it. Fluid conductors include plasma, liquid metal, and salt water that can conduct electricity. Magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) generator is now being developed to become one of alternative energy sources. The system used to calculate the HVEPS Scramjet driven MHD generator. HVEPS is a program developed by the AIAA (American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics) for a detailed conceptual analysis required for this MHD concept. This analysis produces a profound influence on the Diagonal Channel slope angle of the power generated. In previous studies the data obtained with an angle 60 o output of 13.6 kW, the data is almost equal to that produced in the present study is equal to 13.64 kW. As for the optimal output data contained in the large angle that is equal to 37,81 o and output power is equal to 21.63 kW.
