Zusammenfassung:	In the present work, the electrical conductivity of the seeded (with K) combustion products of various gaseous fuel mixtures has been analytically evaluated when the fuel combinations are burnt in oxygen enriched air. The dependence of their electrical conductivity on the percentage of enriched air is investigated in order to obtain an optimum gaseous fuel combination which gives a desired electrical conductivity ( ⋍10 mho/m ) for MHD utility at minimum cost. It is found that the gaseous combinations of WG-LPG and WGC 3H 8, when burnt under stoichiometric conditions in 30% enriched air at atmospheric pressure, are the optimum fuel combinations that satisfy these conditions.
