In this paper the authors analyze the influence of the type of superconducting (s.c.) magnet (in air or in iron) on the behavior of one same MHD device for different shapes of duct. The features of the device are evaluated by means of a code which analyses a 3D lumped-parameter electrical network, equivalent to the fluid flow.
