NUCLEAR REACTOR
Patent
·
OSTI ID:4837163
In a graphite structure of a reactor, comprising a pile of layers of vertically positioned graphite blocks provided with axial coolant channels, the side faces of these blocks are hollowed out over the greatest part of their length, so that adjacent blocks are only in contact over narrow strips at the upper and lower ends of the side faces. The structure comprises retaining organs to press the blocks together centripetally at the level of these strips. The ends of the blocks are provided with interlocking means for keeping the coolant channels of succeeding blocks connected, even in case of a deviation of alignment of the channels caused by the difference in Wigner growth of succeeding layers of blocks.
