@zero: so...

1. Reactor produces 1MW, assumedly 10% is electric energy and 90% is thermal(?)

2. MHD accepts heated cooling fluid and extracts electronic energies via hall-effect therefore reducing overall energy and probably temperature(relatively) assuming another 30% drop from the remaining 90% thermal energy retained.

3. remaining 60% energy now is treated as waste heat and has to be rejected or has the alternative to be run through a conventional thermal boiler turbine engine?

counting 1MW, if I run through my own version of the numbers.

100kW from the reactor.
300kW from the MHD
(.3)600kW = 180 kW from the conventional boiler turbine engine

that about right?

o.o????
