Book Description
The condensing injector has been proposed as a major component in previous studies of liquid-metal magnetohydrodynamic (LMHD) power cycles. In this application, the condensing injector would be required to generate large stagnation pressures. Efficient conversion of the vapor to the liquid state with minimum loss of kinetic and potential energy would be required. A review of the literature has indicated that a more realistic appraisal of the condensing injector was needed to determine the future potential of this device for large pressure augmentation in such applications.
