Numerical codes for MHD flows
Abstract
Numerical techniques and codes for characterizing coal combustion-operated MHD generators and diffusers were developed. The work called for four tasks; (1) development of a one-dimensional channel code; (2) development of multidimensional channel codes; (3) conduct slag layer studies and heat transfer analyses; and (4) study arc formation, migration, and electrode erosion. A summary of the current progress on these tasks is presented.
