The radial planar guide is the perfect configuration for a magnetohydrodynamic power generator, which would both accelerate the plasma, and induce electric energy from it. ("The Plasma State" J.I. Shohet (1971) p145)

The combination of the radial planar wave guide, the capacitive configurations, and the coiled up cycloconstrictive fields (of stored electro-magnetic energy) are the main component parts, along with a plasma of ionized particles, that make up a plasma acceleration device (broadly similar to a coaxial plasma gun - but, of course, more refined and much bigger). The plasma, of mainly positive ions and protons would be set in motion by the recoiling action of the repulsed cycloconstrictive fields and then accelerated by the oppositely-charged planar wave guide electrodes, out in a tangential flow through the toroid’s radial magnetic field. Confinement (which amplifies its force even more) in the wave guide would be in all directions except at the circumferential duct, where the aerodynamic shaping of the duct (and like-charges repulsion) would constrict the plasma and then direct it downward and outward, whereupon the plasma would blast its way through the toroid’s magnetic confining field - as a propagated wave of kinetic energy - at almost the speed of light.

Some comparative figures from a small 8cm diameter hydromagnetic plasma gun might give an idea of the energies involved. Using a coaxial tube to accelerate a hydrogen plasma, and where the conversion of electrical input to kinetic propulsive energy was rated at 40% efficient;
