Has there been a demonstration with it producing 400 C steam? Do you know who witnessed it? If it's true, it changes a lot of aspects which have been discussed here, and throws out a lot of assumptions and speculation that's been floated about regarding the tight temperature band in which the device was believed to operate. > Carnot efficiency will not be an issue. > > The 1 MW reactor will be used to produce hot water.
