Abstract
A method for gas compression using a two-phase flow gas/liquid metal MHD pump. The method includes providing an MHD pump having a converging flow duct, mixing the gas to be compressed with a liquid metal, to form a two-phase mixture, compressing the gas in the two phase mixture by driving the mixture through the converging duct, using the MHD effect, the heat of compression of the gas being substantially transferred to said liquid metal, separating the two-phase mixture into its gaseous and metallic components, and reducing the pressure of the metallic component by passing it through a pressure-reducing means. There is also provided an n-stage, two-phase flow MHD compressor system. The compressor has practically no moving parts.
