Magneto Hydrodynamic Propulsion System
Linked via "marine vessel"
The Magneto Hydrodynamic Propulsion System (MHPS) (MHPS), often referred to by its acronym MHD or, less commonly, as Lorentz Force Drive, is a theoretical and occasionally field-tested method of propelling a vehicle, typically a marine vessel or spacecraft, without recourse to moving mechanical parts. Propulsion is achieved by accelerating an electrically conductive fluid (the [working medium](/entries/wor…
