Coolant systems for nuclear reactors
Patent
·
OSTI ID:4371064
In some reactors the fuel can be run at temperatures above that required by the heat utilization plant to which the coolant is supplied. In these reactors a saving in pumping power may be achieved by raising only part of the coolant to core inlet pressure and bypassing the rest around the heat emitting part of the core. The by-pass stream is mixed with the hot outlet coolant at the core outlet to give a bulk coolant at the required temperature. (Official Gazette)
