摘要: An energy production device may include a core configured to heat a heat transmission fluid, an energy harnessing device configured to convert heat into electrical energy and a heat transfer device positioned over the core configured to receive the heat transmission fluid and transfer the heat to the energy harnessing device. The energy production device may further include a vibration isolator positioned between the energy harnessing device and the heat transfer device. The vibration isolator may be configured to secure the energy harnessing device to the heat transfer device and substantially prevent the transmission of motion from the energy harnessing device to the heat transfer device.

摘要: An energy production device may include a core and a heat exchanger positioned over the core. The core may include one or more fuel rods. The core may further include a heat transmission fluid configured to flow through natural convection upwards through the one or more fuel rods and collect heat therefrom. The core may also include a reaction control device including a neutron-absorbing material. The heat exchanger may be configured to receive the heat transmission fluid and transfer the heat to an energy harnessing device positioned on an opposite side of the heat exchanger from the core.
