Heat-to-electricity thermoacoustic-magnetohydrodynamic conversion
A design for the conversion of heat into electricity is proposed. The conversion is based on the combined effects of a thermoacoustic prime mover coupled to a magnetohydrodynamic generator where different working fluids can be optimally chosen for each process. The results of preliminary experiments...
