For decades Russia has devoted considerable resources to develop a light compact propulsion as well as power system for future space ships. Over the years Russia has developed a number of different ...

Electric-power production is a conservative business; it makes electricity just as it did more than a century ago—by driving copper wires through magnetic fields. That is all that happens in the huge, ...

MHD Generators could make zero emission coal generators affordable and efficient and MHD generators could also make nuclear power for space very light with an energy density of one to three kilograms ...

Scientists in Beijing say they have developed a generator that can turn hot gas moving at hypersonic speeds into an intense electric current capable of powering futuristic weapons. The electricity ...

MHD or Magnetohydrodynamic generators are a scientific curiosity. They promise power generation using a fully green, zero maintenance, zero moving part power method. Nothing, but the power of ...
