THE PRACTICAL SIGNIFICANCE OF THE EXICTING INFRASTRUCTURE OF THE SCIENTIFIC AND EXPERIMENTAL COMPLEX IN VODERN PROCESSES OF REFORMING THE ENERGY INDUSTRY OF UKRAINE

This article reviews scientific and practical role and context of experimental magnetic-hydrodynamic (MHD) generator K-1 (Kyiv-1) in its past fundamental power research causes. Here we describe: hi-temperature MHD conversion features; basic elements and intersections of K-1 unit; structure and special tecchnological supplies of MHD generator. We assume contemporary actuality, perspective and practical value of MHD K-1 scientific research facility infrastructure which is currently available for purposes of innovative reforming of Ukrainian energy production. Strategy to make use of facility infrastructure is proposed: in a form of scientific hub for new energy projects development in cooperation of research, educational and commercial entities interested in research and practical solutions in the energy domain.
