OSTI ID:4804954
Design technology for gas-cooled high-temperature nuclear reactors is described by recounting the solutions to reactor design problems used for the direct air cycle portion of the national Aircraft Nuclear Propulsion (ANP) Program. Major shield and control system design problem solutions as related to the reactor are also recounted. General characteristics of nuclear-powered gas- turbine cycles of gas-cooled reactors and of shields are discussed and means are indicated for relating those characteristics to basic requirements of the nuclear reactor. A general discussion of reactor design, including initial and final design sequences is also presented. (auth)
