NEW MODE OF CONNECTION OF THE SOLID MODERATOR OF A NUCLEAR REACTOR WITH VERTICAL CHANNELS ARRANGED IN A HEXAGONAL LATTICE
Patent

OSTI ID:4085414
In order to guarantee the alignment of the channels crossing the core of a nuclear reactor constituted by a pile of hexagonal prismatic graphite blocks (these blocks being arranged in a regular hexagonal lattice), the blocks are stacked one above the other in such a way that their central holes form the said channels. Keys with parallel side faces fitted in radial slots grooved in the side faces of the blocks connect succeeding blocks of the same column to the corresponding blocks of an adjacent column. Because of the anisotropic expansion of the blocks, the columns must be separated by free spaces; the keys must have a sufficient clearance to be able to slide freely in the slots. (NPO)
