The development of fast reactors in France from March 1980 to March 1981; Le developpement des reacteurs a neutrons rapides en France de mars 1980 a mars 1981

Abstract

This paper describes general features concerning development in the field of fast reactors in France from March 1980 to March 1981. It concentrates mainly on: Rapsodie, Phenix NPP, prototype reactor Super Phenix 1, future fast reactor NPPs and current research and development programs in the field. The present situation is as follows. Rapsodie has restarted operation but at reduced power in July 1980 because of the problems in the primary circuit which have not yet been solved. Phenic operates in a very satisfactory manner. Construction of Super Phenix is continuing normally. Research activities are performed sometimes for the needs of Super Phenix and sometimes for the needs of future fast rector projects like Super Phenix 2. International cooperation is being continued.
