The Trawsfynydd 500 Mw nuclear power station will employ two natural uranium, graphite-moderated, gascooled reactors. Improvements in design include the use of 31/2-in.-thick plate In the pressure vessel walls, linked butterfly valves for coolant control, and an improved ratio in core to pressure vessel volume. The fuel elements are natural uranium encased in magnesium alloy cans. A dual steam cycle is utilized.
