  • Abstract
    The results of the conceptual design of an MHD retrofit for the Corette Plant in Billings, Montana, are presented. Canvassing over 100 utilities results in a general response that the retrofitted power plant should be over 150 MWe, have a steam reheat cycle, be base-loaded, and be operated by a utility. The consensus was that these design features would produce believable and usable results on which the utilities could base future generating plans. These factors guided the design presented here
