Longitudinal electromotive forces and Hall effect for channel flow of an ionized gas

E. I. Yantovskii

Abstract
Estimates are made at the electric field that may arise along a channel containing a flow of ionized gas due to the thermoelectric effect, the electron pressure gradient, large ion slip, and the Hall effect. The author presents certain formulas characterizing energy conversion in a channel with a fixed direction of the electric fluid. Refs 3.
