Abstract
The present collection of papers on MHD-related uses of liquid metal
flows and their applications discusses topics in laminar MHD flows, MHD
power generation, metallurgical MHD applications, and two-phase MHD
flows. Attention is given to MHD flows with closed streamlines,
nonlinear waves in liquid metals under a transverse magnetic field,
liquid-metal MHD conversion of nuclear energy to electricity, the
testing of optimized MHD conversion ('OMACON') systems, and aspects of a
liquid-metal induction generator. Also discussed are MHD effects in
liquid-metal breeder reactors, a plasma-driven MHD powerplant, modeling
the recirculating flows in channel-induction surfaces, the hydrodynamics
of aluminum reduction cells, free-surface determination in a
levitation-melting process, the parametric interactions of waves in
bubbly liquid metals, and the occurrence of cavitation in water jets.
