The LAD configuration employs parallel electrode plates along the length of the channel, creating a uniform electric field that drives current perpendicular to the applied magnetic field. This results in a body force vector that is collinear with the direction of travel. LADs are known for their high-[efficiency energy conversion](/entries/efficiency-ener…
