Through a Cone. After ten years of study, Avco scientists built a laboratory model MHD that produces 10 kw. of 55-volt electricity. This is hardly enough to run a gadget-filled kitchen, but ten big U.S. power companies have now joined with Avco to help develop MHD generators big enough to supply commercial power. A major advantage: an MHD generator has no primary moving parts, with the exception of those in the relatively simple compressor...
Pyrographite can be deposited in sheets up to ½ in-thick, can be shaped to form rocket nozzles and caps for nose cones. Both these parts get punishing heat concentrated on rather small areas. The beauty of Pyrographite is that it conducts heat away from these danger points as fast as copper can, but it does not permit nearly as much heat to pass through it. A Pyrographite nose cone, for instance, spreads the heat of air friction over a large area and permits it to be radiated harmlessly away, but it does not let heat strike through the cone...
