Preliminary Design of a Magnetohydrodynamic (Mhd) Channel for the U.S.S.R. U-25Facility. Final Report.

摘要

This report portrays the results of the preliminary design effort for a magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) channel for the USSR U-25facility. It also delineates the design and engineering effort required to make this channel compatible with the High Performance Demonstration Facility (HPDF) located at the Arnold Engineering Development Center,Arnold Air Force Station,Tennessee. The channel is of a variable wall angle,single output, wndowframe design. This preliminary design provides a departure point from which both detail design and construction may proceed concurrently. A detailed program plan and schedule for the final design,construction and proof testing of the channel at the HPDF and U-25facilities is included.
