A two-phase MHD energy conversion unit is proposed to a liquid metal cooled fast reactor. Using supercritical CO 2 as the working fluid in the gas cycle without considering friction and heat losses, the optimized cycles efficiency is obtained, which is about 5% higher than that of the gas turbine Brayton cycle with the same regenerator/compressor configurations. Based on a simple MHD power...
