Technical Report ·
DOI:https://doi.org/10.2172/4741852· OSTI ID:4741852
The history of gas-cooled reactor developmert is reviewed. The 40-Mw HTGR r the Peach Bottom Power Plart is described. Other projects to follow this prototype are outlined. Fuel development and progress in graphite core technology are discussed. The program sponsored by the Empire State Atomic Development Associates for a high-temperature gas-cooled reactor with an output of 300 to 500 Mw(e) is described. (M.C.G.)
