摘要:
A gas cooled, high temperature nuclear reactor is provided with a base plate arranged under the reactor core and over the bottom of the prestressed concrete pressure vessel serving as the bottom shield. The bottom shield comprises at least two plates arranged coaxially with respect to each other, one above the other. Each plate comprises several partially interconnected parts with the lower plate being placed at an axial and vertical distance from the bottom liner of the prestressed concrete pressure vessel and also from the upper plate.

An improved design for shielding the component parts of a gas turbine power plant from radiation in a gas transport conduit is disclosed. The radiation shield and shielded gas conduit utilize a shielding arrangement comprising a displacement body arranged centrally within the conduit and a shielding annulus surrounding the displacement body. A shielding device provides for a first annular flow path for reactor cooling gas between the displacement body and shielding annulus and a second annular flow path for reactor cooling gas between the shielding annulus and the conduit housing. The shielding device provides protection against radiation without significantly disrupting the flow of the cooling gas in the conduits.

Disclosed is an angled gas conduit for a gas flowing under high pressure and at an elevated temperature which comprises a first conduit part and second conduit part connected at an angle forming an area of deflection for gas flowing within said conduit parts, an apertured plate arranged at an oblique angle within said conduit in the area of deflection, the apertured plate having a plurality of circular passages for directing the flow of gas in the conduit. A mounting arrangement for the apertured plate is also disclosed.

A support structure for a nuclear reactor is disclosed comprising a primary support element connected with the roof of the pressure vessel and a secondary support element joined with the primary support element. The thermal roof shield and the roof reflector are connected to the secondary support element.
摘要:
A supporting floor for the core of a nuclear reactor utilizes a plurality of independent support columns forming the floor of the reactor and resting on the bottom layers of the reactor. The support columns are surrounded by a side reflector which is in turn surrounded by a thermal side shield. Between the thermal side shield and the side reflector are disposed retaining means for maintaining the columns close together and preventing the formation of large gaps during operation.

A gas-cooled high temperature reactor is equipped with a supporting structure for the reactor core having a gas conduit passing through the support structure from a hot gas collecting space beneath the supporting structure. The supporting structure itself rests on a floor plate in a columnar arrangement. The floor plate also rests on support columns and possesses a disk-like center portion indirectly supporting the reactor core and an outer annular portion supporting a lateral thermal shield around the reactor core.

The invention relates to a gas cooled high temperature reactor located in the cavity of a pressure vessel, with spherical fuel elements, and removal apparatus for fuel elements. The latter is made of at least one ceramic pebble outlet tube extending through the graphite structural parts of the nuclear reactor (bottom reflector, bottom layers) and a number of metal pebble outlet tubes installed through the bottom of the pressure vessel. They are arranged coaxially in the liner of the passage through the vessel. To be able to dismantle the metal pebble outlet tubes, they are constructed of several releasably interconnected tube segments. Between the uppermost tube segment and the corresponding ceramic pebble outlet tube a compensating tube is provided and connected with the tube segment by means of a sliding joint. The other end of the compensating tube is fastened to the thermal bottom shield. Relative movements caused by the thermal expansion of the bottom shield and the pebble outlet tubes are compensated by the slide joints. Simultaneously, the necessary tight sealing is assured.
摘要:
A gas cooled high temperature reactor with spherical fuel elements surrounded by a reflector utilizes at least one ceramic tube and at least one metal tube for removal of pebbles from the core of the reactor. Each cermaic tube is surrounded directly by a ring of graphite columns wherein a plurality of recesses house a number of rod-shaped boron bodies. Additional plate-shaped boron bodies may advantageously be located in the bottom layes of the reflector.
摘要:
It is desirable to being able to vary the temperature of a loop exposed to a flow of hot gases in gas cooled nuclear reactor installations without thereby affecting the gas temperature in the other loops. It should be possible in an extreme case to take the affected loop out of service. This is achieved by arranging under the heat absorbing components in the hot gas channel a means for mixing gas connected with a cold gas line.
摘要:
An inspection device for the inspection of internal spaces in nuclear reactor installations requires extremely small dimensions while being capable of use at high temperatures and exposures to radiation during shutdown periods of the reactor. The device is designed so that it is readily adapted to a particular inspection purpose. The particular device meeting these requirements comprises a camera arranged in a tube and cooled in such tube. The objective of the camera and/or a mirror are each connected with means for relative movement. A source light and the movement means are designed as separate structural elements which may be assembled in different combinations in a modular fashion.
