Analysis of the Process of Energy Transformation in Magnetohydrodynamic Stirrer of Liquid Metals with Nonsinusoidal Current

Abstract

This article describes the electromagnetic field analytical model of magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) stirrer with nonsinusoidal current, built with the account of the longitudinal edge effect. The solution is obtained in the form of a Fourier series in a comprehensive way. Differential and integral properties of the system have been defined. There have been received differential and integral characteristics, which are the basis for building the power supply source and control systems for the liquid metal stirring process.
