A closed-loop Brayton-cycle topping system (10) operates at maximum temperatures greatly in excess of conventional steam Rankine-cycle. The topping system (10) can thus act as an addition to the Rankine-cycle base system (11). Carbon-carbon composite is used to make the Brayton-cycle topping system's turbine rotor and piping for ducting the working fluid between a "firebox" (25) and the Brayton-cycle topping system's turbine (30). An inert gas working fluid is used to provide a nonoxidizing environment for the carbon-carbon. A shielding-cooling-insulating system provides a structural cooling loop which permits use of conventional metal for containment and ducting of high-temperature working fluids. In a system heated by fossil fuel, tubular ceramic heat exchanger elements capable of withstanding high temperatures are used. All energy put into the topping system (10) is productively utilised either in the topping system (10) as shaft power output or by the base system (11) as input. | ||||||
