High temperature inert gas (argon) plasma MHD electrical power generation using a linear shaped channel with Hall and diagonal connections has been conducted. It is revealed from the observation by using a high-speed camera that the MHD power-generating plasma is almost stable regardless of the connection type. Enthalpy extraction ratios of 5.6% for the Hall connection, 6.7% for the diagonal connection (diagonal angle 53∼66 degree), and 10.1% for the diagonal connection (diagonal angle 36∼48 degree) have been achieved under the operating conditions of an inlet total temperature of 9000K, an inlet total pressure of 0.105MPa, and a magnetic flux density of 4.0T. The output power can suffer from a low electric field in the upstream region in a Hall connection, and is improved for no Hall current condition in a diagonal connection.
