So, I look at the default module: 104kW RTG (the 100kg one with Polonium). Polonium claims 141kW/kg. There is 10kg of it, so it should have a heat input of 1.41MW.
Now, its outputs: 574kW thermal and 104kW electrical (with 9.2kW lost at the pump). That sums up to about 680kW, or 48% or the claimed input.
Either the 141kW/kg is calculated incorrectly and unused, or the math for the RTG has a bug in it.
