IMPROVEMENTS RELATING TO NUCLEAR REACTORS

OSTI ID:4843840
The pressure vessel of a nuclear reactor is suspended from rigid support means by a plurality of suspension members attached to the pressure vessel at points distributed around the vessel and situated below the top of the vessel. These members may be pivotally attached at both ends to the pressure vessel and support means respectively. Preferably the pressure vessel is so shaped that the pressure of fluid within the vessel opposes the bending stress induced in the vessel at the points of attachment of the suspension members. In the latter case the support structure for the reactor core may be suspended from corresponding points on the inner wall of the vessel. The said support structure may also be suspended within the vessel in such a manner as to oppose the stress induced in the vessel at the points of attachment of the suspension members to the vessel.
