A conceptual design study of the MHD/steam plant that incorporates the use of oxygen enriched air preheated in a metallic heat exchanger as the combustor oxidant showed that this plant is the most attractive for early commercial applications. The variation of performance and cost was investigated as a function of plant size. The contractors' result...

This paper considers the behavior of an MHD/steam-comined cylce plant under the dynamic operating conditions prescribed by the transient stability regime (50 msc to 10 sec after a disturbance on a power system). Using a three-phase fault to ground to test the model developed, it is shown that: (1) in this regime, the MHD generator acts as a current source to provide damping and consequent increased network stability; (2) the low energy storage capability of the MED generator reduces fault currents and plant surges relative to those of a similarly rated conventional plant; and (3) load tripping introduces special requirements which are discussed in the paper.
