MHD power generation experiments have been conducted by using a single‐pulsed shock‐tunnel facility, where a high‐temperature inert gas (pure argon) at a fixed total temperature of 9000 K is introduced into a linear Faraday generator without seeding. The fluctuations in the output power and light emission from the plasma are found to be small, and the pure inert gas plasma seems to be rather consistently free of ionization instability. The output power is improved by increasing the magnetic flux density in near‐quadric fashion and the enthalpy extraction ratio does not depend on the inlet total pressure (11.2% to 12.9% for 0.063 MPa to 0.105 MPa). The generator performance obtained is competitive with or superior to that of existing seed plasma MHD generators.
