Jed,

The JLN's MAHD does NOT disassociate water! The water is merely a cooling medium for the anode.

Well, I figured as much.


The heat in the MAHD is generated in a gaseous hydrogen at 0.1atm pressure between inner heated cathode and outer cold anode. This is essentially a vacuum tube, but without electrical HV polarization between cathode and anode. . . .

Thanks. That is clearer than anything I can find on Naudin's website. Can you tell us why they vary the flow of water? And how? It must be a feedback mechanism.

They should make this thing self-sustain. At these temperatures and power levels it should not be hard to find a Stirling engine generator or something like that.
