MagnetoHydroDynamic propulsion (MHD) uses electromagnetism without moving parts to move water and propel the submarine forward. Though believed to be silent and stealthy (in large part due to the Clancy novel "Hunt for Red October", which featured an MHD Type drive) in reality the gases and electromagnetic signature would be detectable by a range of ASW sensors commonly in use. In other words, sounds great, but in practical application for blue water ops, it's not realistic. It could be good for coastal defense though.
Its primary disadvantage is speed - it's slow compared to boats of Diesel Electric or Nuclear propulsion with conventional screws. In any combat situation, speed is critical, especially when you've got a 55 knot torpedo aimed up your stern. Speed is one of the primary reasons that the U.S. and other major countries moved to Nuclear Power for their submarine fleets. Speed equals overall tactical advantage in any engagement, or when time is a factor in getting to a global hot spot. Only nations without real blue water navies, save for Russia, still operate DE boats. Most who use them are for coastal defense only, though modern technology gives them comparable speed to older nuclear submarines. However, top speed is still limited by battery consumption, and at some point they still need to recharge their batteries. Running a diesel is an instant target acquisition for any nuclear submarine Sonar gang on the ball.

use of MHD generator's concept in power generation will lead the power sector to increase the efficiency to approx.80%,specially for thermal power plants whose efficiency lies in 35-40%. as we are knowing that,In MHD power generation kinetic energy or thermal energy is directly converted to electrical energy and also it has no moving parts.so,it is more advantageous.

Hey, the answer to your question is "Ants Marching"
MHD stands for Magnetohydrodynamics, which is a branch of physics that studies the dynamics of electrically conducting fluids like plasmas, liquid metals, and salt water. It combines principles from fluid dynamics and electromagnetism to understand the behavior of these types of fluids in the presence of magnetic fields.

In a sense, yes. Magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) makes use of a conducting plasma 'jet' passing through a magnetic field to produce a voltage. It works on the same principle as generator -i.e. a conductor moving through a magnetic field will have an emf. induced into that conductor. In the case of MHD, the 'conductor' is the plasma jet.
