IMPROVEMENTS RELATING TO NUCLEAR POWER PLANTS

Patent ·
OSTI ID:4684706
A nuclear power plant in which the heat developed in the reactor is removed by a fluid in the vapor phase, is provided with two circuits. One circuit comprises a prime mover, in which the vapor expands, a condenser, and a pump repressurizing the fluid. The second circuit, in which the fluid is always in the vapor phase, comprises at least one mixer in which the repressurized liquid is introduced and vaporized in contact with the vapor in this circuit. This mixture is fed into the reactor. The vapor emerging from the reactor is divided into two portions feeding the said two circuits, respectively. (NPO)
