Abstract :
Results on possible applications of generated by electrodynamics accelerator high-enthalpy plasma flows in various technological processes are presented. The possibility of using magneto hydrodynamics (MHD) plasma accelerators as tools for modification of solid surfaces and for initiation of chemical reactions due to interaction of a high-enthalpy flow with a gas medium is demonstrated. Mathematical models of these accelerators were developed and tested.
