Fast reactor power plant design having heat pipe heat exchanger

Patent Huebotter, Paul R. (Western Springs, IL); McLennan, George A. (Downers Grove, IL)

The invention relates to a pool-type fission reactor power plant design having a reactor vessel containing a primary coolant (such as liquid sodium), and a steam expansion device powered by a pressurized water/steam coolant system. Heat pipe means are disposed between the primary and water coolants to complete the heat transfer therebetween. The heat pipes are vertically oriented, penetrating the reactor deck and being directly submerged in the primary coolant. A U-tube or line passes through each heat pipe, extended over most of the length of the heat pipe and having its walls spaced from but closely proximate to andmore »« less

Heat pipe array heat exchanger

Patent Reimann, R.C.

A heat exchanger is described for transferring heat between a first fluid and a second fluid in an absorption refrigeration system comprising: a first shell having an inlet for receiving the first fluid at a first elevated temperature and an outlet for discharging the first fluid at a first reduced temperature with the shell defining a free flow path for the first fluid flowing there through; a second shell located at a higher elevation than the first shell and having an inlet for receiving the second fluid at a second reduced temperature near an upper portion of the second shellmore »« less
Fluidized bed heat exchanger utilizing angularly extending heat exchange tubes

Patent Talmud, Fred M. (Berkeley Heights, NJ); Garcia-Mallol, Juan-Antonio (Morristown, NJ)

A fluidized bed heat exchanger in which air is passed through a bed of particulate material containing fuel disposed in a housing. A steam/water natural circulation system is provided and includes a steam drum disposed adjacent the fluidized bed and a series of tubes connected at one end to the steam drum. A portion of the tubes are connected to a water drum and in the path of the air and the gaseous products of combustion exiting from the bed. Another portion of the tubes pass through the bed and extend at an angle to the upper surface of themore » bed.« less

Heat transfer mechanism with thin filaments including ceramic high temperature heat exchanger

Patent Im, Kwan H. (Naperville, IL); Ahluwalia, Rajesh K. (Burr Ridge, IL)

A radiative heat transfer mechanism in a furnace having burners through which pulverized coal and air are burned producing combustion gases and contaminants. A plurality of elongated conduits are positioned inside the furnace proximate to the burners generally parallel to the flow of combustion gases in the furnace. A plurality of thin filaments are inside each of the elongated hollow conduits, the filaments having diameters in the range of from about 1 micrometer to about 1,000 micrometers and having an infrared radiation cross-section sufficient to cause the filaments to heat upon exposure to infrared radiation. Blower mechanism is associated withmore »« less

Heat exchanger device and method for heat removal or transfer

Patent Koplow, Jeffrey P [San Ramon, CA]

Systems and methods for a forced-convection heat exchanger are provided. In one embodiment, heat is transferred to or from a thermal load in thermal contact with a heat conducting structure, across a narrow air gap, to a rotating heat transfer structure immersed in a surrounding medium such as air.
