Design and fabrication experiences at Argonne National Laboratory (ANL) with the pioneering U-25B five tesla superconducting MHD magnet, the six tesla CFFF superconducting MHD magnet, and the operational experiences with the U-25B magnet in an open-cycle MHD environment at the Institute for High Temperatures in Moscow, USSR, have provided unique data for critical aspects of superconducting magnet development for the generation of electrical power using open cycle MHD energy conversion.
