GRAPHITE-MODERATED GAS-COOLED NUCLEAR FISSION REACTOR

Patent ·
OSTI ID:4768773
A reactor is designed for a high rate of heat transfer for power generation. The cooling channels are arranged horizontally, and inlet and outlet headers are provided across the core between its opposite faces so that coolant enters the channels near the center of the core where the neutron flux is greatest. The fuel elements are finned for increased heat transfer. (D.L.C )
