Abstract

An apparatus, system and method are provided for self-generating electricity in a residential or commercial appliance that combusts a fuel to form a flame for generating heat in the appliance. A burner is coupled to the appliance and receives the fuel, and nozzle(s) are provided on the configured to emit one or more flames for proving a source of heat to the appliance. A magneto-hydrodynamic generator is disposed proximate the burner and includes a first magnet and a second magnet configured to create a magnetic field, and a first power-electrode and a second power-electrode arranged in parallel to one another and perpendicular to the magnets to define a channel therebetween. A power take-off coupled to the magneto-hydrodynamic generator is configured to receive electric power from the power-electrodes for use in supplying at least a portion of the electrical requirements of the appliance when the flame enters the channel.
