Magnetohydrodynamic Heat Transfer for Fusion Energy

This thesis uses measurements from a new experimental flow loop and new analysis of existing literature data to provide a heat transfer correlation for turbulent magnetohydrodynamic flows. Fluids used as breeder/coolant in fusion power plant blankets must provide adequate heat transfer of up to 10 M...
