CYLINDRICAL WALL TO CONTROL THE WATER DISCHARGE AND TO CANCEL OUT THE DRIVING FORCE OF THE NATURAL CIRCULATION IN A BOILING WATER REACTOR
Patent

OSTI ID:4843855
To control the water discharge and to cancel out the driving force of the natural circulation in a boiling water reactor that comprises a plurality of cells extended by risers containing steam separators, these cells are surrounded by a perforated cylinder having openings that regulate the water flow from the separators to the reflecting water jacket in such a way that the jacket has a level of water sufficiently low to cancel out the natural circulation of the water. In consequence of this, there is no fluctuation of natural circulation with change in position of the reactor. In addition a thick layer of water inside the cylinder protects the top of the reactor core. (NPO)
