No abstract.<>15:030269Estimated capital and power generation costs are compared for nine steam-cooled power reactor concepts. The reactor concepts studied are the Graphite-Moderated Boiling and Superheating Reactor (GBSR), the Integral Boiling and Superheating Reactor (IBSHR), the Integral Nuclear Superheat Reactor (ISR), the Mixed Spectrum Superheater Reactor (MSSR), the Once-Through Superheat Reactor (OTSR), the Pressure Tube Superheat Reactor (PTSR), the Steam-Cooled D/sub 2/O-Moderated Reactor (SCDMR), the Steam-Cooled Fast Breeder Reactor (SCFBR), and the Separate Superheater Reactor (SSR). Each of these is analyzed at a nominal plant size of 300 Mw(e); in addition, the ISR, the SCDMR, and the SCFBR are studied at 40 Mw (e). (auth)
