Influence of electrode commutation on magnetohydrodynamic flow in a supersonic diffuser

The slowing of an ionized gas in a supersonic diffuser operating as a magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) generator is investigated by numerical simulation. The calculation results, which reveal a significant dependence of the static pressure level and the Mach number distribution in the exit cross section of the diffuser on the design of the electrode system, are presented.
