• All electric operation would bypass electrolyzer HX
- Cycle efficiency is 60.2%
• Extracting 375 MWt from HX lowers efficiency to 57.3%
- Maximum helium temperature is maintained at 1100°C with same thermal power input
- Less heat is recovered in recuperator
- Lower temperature coolant to divertor and blanket
- Reduced coolant flow rate
1100°C/1100°C
704°C/ 687°C
