The next generation of gas cooled small modular reactors will offer high level
process heat, useful for mobilizing oil sands and oil shale, fertilizer
production and many other industrial processes. Thus more of the waste heat may
be utilized, rather than lost to the environment.

I agree, the market will decide the optimum scale and location for these types
of generating facilities for the best economy.

Gas is the operative term. It is the expanding gas that makes internal
combustion the best choice for most transportation. Steam engines and
condensers for light transportation are just not feasible.

With air as coolant in the 10 KW space heater, the suggested narrow range of
useful reactor temps is more easily achieved - compared to water or heat
transfer fluid. The mechanics of moving air are simpler, as is the transfer
of heat to the air - compared to liquids.
Sounds like the 2.6KW element
Sure, possible, but not feasible due to economics. Just the lithium
requirements for batteries will undo this scheme. Internal combustion will win
out over steam piston generators or thermoelectric.

Doesn't the heater surround the copper tubing, and the red power cable attach
