Thermoelectric magnetohydrodynamics in dendritic solidification
… liquid metal melt. The principle is that thermoelectric currents that are naturally inherent to solidification processes will interact with this magnetic field, resulting in a Lorentz force. This force will exist in a microscopic region in the vicinity of the solidification front, …

Heat transfer analysis of thermoelectric driven swirling flow
… conditions as CDX-U and in recent experiments thermoelectric magnetohydrodynamics (TEMHD) was proved to be the dominant driven force of this kind of swirling flow. Its fluid properties were fully investigated later and a group of equations have been developed to describe the velocity field. …

Experimental and numerical analysis of thermoelectric magnetohydrodynamic driven liquid lithium flow in open channels for fusion applications
… concept successfully demonstrated that the thermoelectric effect can drive liquid lithium flow within horizontally placed metallic open trenches when an external magnetic field is transverse to the trench walls. Experiments at the University of Illinois have yielded experimental lithium …

Advancement of liquid lithium plasma-facing components for next-generation fusion devices
… the plate, experiments studying Thermo-Electric MagnetoHydroDynamics (TEMHD) drive began. This involved the re-commissioning of an electron beam assembly to generate fusion relevant heat fluxes at the lithium PFC. The heat flux produced at the PFC was determined using a calorimeter and a maximum …

Flow control and associated technologies to advance the application of TEMHD-driven liquid lithium in fusion devices
… at Urbana-Champaign (UIUC), utilizes the thermoelectric magnetohydrodynamic (TEMHD) effect to passively drive liquid lithium through solid metal trenches. The LiMIT device has been successfully tested at UIUC and in devices around the world, such as the HT-7 tokamak and the Magnum PSI …

Characterization of ion properties in a linear pulsed plasma-material interaction test stand
… plasma accelerator has been developed[1-3]. The ThermoElectric-driven Liquid-metal plasma-facing Structures (TELS) device will provide fusion-relevant plasma flux incident on structures with flowing liquid metal surfaces. In order to accurately quantify the ability of TELS to provide a simulated …
