A Magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) converter is a device that converts thermal energy directly into electrical energy through the motion of a conductive fluid in the presence of a magnetic field. MHD technology exploits the principles of magnetohydrodynamics, which studies the behavior of electrically conducting fluids (like plasmas, liquid metals, or salty water) in magnetic fields.
