COMPARISON OF OPTIMUM NATURAL URANIUM NUCLEAR POWER PLANT AND OPTIMUM ENRICHED URANIUM NUCLEAR POWER PLANT. (GAS COOLED POWER REACTORS). Report No. 58-19-RE
Technical Report
·
OSTI ID:4313046
The designs of an optimum natural uraniunn power plant and an optimum partially enriched uranium power plant, both using CO/sub 2/ as a coolant, are compared. The basis for optimization of both plants is set forth and a description of the design of each plant is included. Those features of design, construction, and economic considerations which differ between the two optimum plants are discussed in detail. The design of each of the plants incorporates new advances in technology and the best features of similar plants now operating, or under construction, to provide net plant efficiency higher than has thus far been achieved in nuclear plants.
