COOLING MEANS FOR CONTROL RODS IN A NUCLEAR REACTOR

Patent ·
OSTI ID:4839588
In order to guarantee an appropriate cooling of the control rods in a nuclear reactor, these rods are arranged in channels in which the coolant is guided through a diaphragm having a passage variable as a function of the position of the channel in the reactor. The flow section presented by the channels to the coolant is greater the more deeply the control rods reach into the reactor. The channels therefore consist of a series of tubes of successively increasing diameters. (NPO)
