In 1999 the new method for generation of modulated or pulsing jets was proposed based on magnetohydrodynamic phenomenon. The basic theoretical analyses were presented and the next steps of the idea elaboration were outlined. The experimental channel simulating the "Hartmann" problem was then designed and some preliminary tests were performed. Simultaneously, the numerical experiments based on more precise theory then that presented in 1999 were processed in last years. Finally, the set of experiments was realized aimed at determination of the magnetohydrodynamic effects in various liquids under several conditions in testing "Hartmannlike" channel. The conductivity, liquid velocity and magnetic field were changed and resulting electric voltage was measured. The results are discussed with regard to their application for liquid jet modulation.
