Turbo Generator Vs MHD Generator

Important aspects of MDH 1. Accelerate fluids through Lorentz force, which refers to MHD accelerators. 2. Convert the kinetic energy of a fluid and its enthalpy into electric energy, which refers to MHD generators.

Principle of Operation The underlying principle of MHD power generation is elegantly simple. An electrically conducting fluid is driven by a primary energy source (e.g., combustion of coal or a gas) through a magnetic field. This results in the establishment of an electromotive force within the conductor in accordance with the principle established by Faraday. If the conductor is an electrically conducting gas, it will expand, and so the MHD system constitutes a heat engine involving an expansion from high to low pressure in a manner similar to that of a gas turbine.

The gas turbine operates through the gas interaction with the surfaces of a rotating blade system. The MHD system, however, involves a volume interaction between a gas and the magnetic field through which it is passing. It is a system that depends on volume rather than surface interaction.

General Characteristics The MHD generator can properly be viewed as an electromagnetic turbine. Output is obtained from the conducting gas-magnetic field interaction directly in electrical form rather than in mechanical form. Electrical conduction in gases occurs when electrons are available to be organized into an electric current in response to an applied or induced electric field. The electrons may be either injected or generated internally, and, because of the electrostatic forces involved, they require the presence of corresponding positive charge from ions to maintain electrical neutrality.

An electrically conducting gas consists in general of electrons, ions to balance the electric charge, and neutral atoms or molecules. Such a gas is termed a plasma.

Electro Static Forces Principles of Electrostatic Precipitator Supplying high voltage between the Collecting Electrode and Discharge Electrode generates a Corona Discharge that produces minus ions. The electrically charged dusts are attracted towards the Collecting Electrodes by an electrostatic force

The accumulated dusts, due to the impact strength of hammer rapping to the Collecting Electrodes, are dropped and collected in the hopper.

The Surface Forces on A Fluid Flow The Surface forces are characterized by length scales relevant to the microscopic dynamics. This would mean that such forces decay extremely rapidly with distance on the macroscopic scale. The short-ranged forces will decay on distances of the order of a mean free path. Any infinitesimal element in a continuum description is, by definition, must be much larger than all microscopic scales. The effect of such forces would be negligible unless two interacting elements are directly in contact. These forces are expected to act across the contact surface. In other words, the short-ranged forces manifest as surface forces, in a continuum description.

The fluid packets close to a solid wall tend to reach mechanical equilibrium with the wall.

The fluid particles will exchange maximum possible momentum flux with the solid wall. A small layer of fluid particles close the the wall come to Mechanical, Thermal and Chemical Equilibrium With solid wall. Fundamentally this fluid layer is in Thermodynamic Equilibrium with the solid wall.

Flux Nature of Surface Forces The surface forces act to transport momentum across the boundaries of an infinitesimal element. In dilute gases, the momentum transport occurs due to molecules randomly crossing the boundary. Carry momentum across in the appropriate direction. Often referred to as the kinetic contribution to the stress. In liquids, the transport of momentum can occur without physical translation of molecules via short-ranged forces acting between pairs of molecules on either side of the boundary. Separated by a distance comparable to the range of the inter- molecular potential. Considered as the potential contribution to the stress. Clearly, the total effect of short-ranged forces acting on a differential element is decided by its surface area rather than the volume.

Surface Forces The Second term on the right-hand side of above equation represents the resultant surface force acting on the entire control surface. As discussed before, force is an extensive quantity and hence surface force is proportional to surface area. Depending on the global surface under study, this gives a force vector which can be decomposed into a normal and a shear forces. dF s is written as a scalar product of the stress tensor and area vector acting on the surface element ds:

Components of Forces n is the normal unit vector that points away from the surface. t is the tangential unit vector. The negative signs of n and t have been chosen to indicate that the pressure p and the shear stress  are exerted by the surroundings on the surface S. Thus, the surface force acting on a differential surface is:

Dealing with Surface Forces In above equation, the integration must be carried out over the entire control surface. Fora control surface consisting of inlet, exit, and wall surfaces, the second integral on the left-hand side gives:

Momentum Conservation Equations for Fluid Flows The surface forces are those applied by external stresses on the sides of the element. Thus the total vector surface force is defined as surface force per unit volume

Differential Form of Momentum Conservation Equations for Fluid Flows

From the definition of a fluid, the stresses parallel to planes must vanish if the fluid is at rest. Thus the shear stresses are zero, and the normal stresses become equal to the hydrostatic pressure: We must ensure that the stresses in general flow reduce to this special case when the velocity is zero.
