NUCLEAR REACTOR PRODUCING SUPERHEATED STEAM

Patent ·
OSTI ID:4839420
A reactor core divided into two concentric sections is described. It has an outer boiling section and a central superheating section. Both sections contain fuel elements. The steam formed in the boiling section rises into the top of the reactor vessel and passes down through hollow fuel elements in the central section where it is superheated. The boiling liquid is water, which is in connection with the water constituting the moderator in the superheating section, and which circulates between this section through perforations in a cylinder separating the said two sections.
