Summary of design studies leading to preliminary design of 2-MWt reactor and shield (PWAR-20)
Technical Report
·
OSTI ID:4315617
Declassified 30 Aug 1973. The present SNAP-50/SPUR power plant development program concentrates on a system designed for unattended operation in space for 10,000 hours which produces a net electrical output of 300 kW(e). The reactor and shield for this power plant have been designated as the PWAR-20. The purpose of the design studies conducted since 1962 which led to the present reactor and shield concept are reviewed. (auth)
