    摘要： A heat pipe configured to remove heat from a nuclear reactor core is disclosed herein. The heat pipe can include an inner housing defining an inner volume configured to accommodate a heat source and an outer housing configured about the inner housing and the heat source. A wick can be positioned between at least a portion of the inner housing and at least a portion of the outer housing, wherein the wick can include a capillary material, and wherein the wick can define an intermediate volume between the inner housing and the outer housing. A working fluid can be positioned within the intermediate volume, wherein the working fluid can evaporate at a first end of the heat pipe and condense at a second end of the heat pipe adjacent to a heat exchanger, and wherein the wick can return condensed working fluid to the first end of the heat pipe.

    摘要： An adjustable core assembly for a nuclear reactor is disclosed herein. The adjustable core can include a plurality of reactivity control cells configured to accommodate a reactivity control rod, and a plurality of unit cells. The plurality of unit cells defines a radial dimension corresponding to an initial power output of the core. Each unit cell of the plurality of unit cells is configured to accommodate fuel configured to generate energy and a heat pipe configured to transfer thermal energy away from the core. Each unit cell of the plurality unit cells can be coupled to an adjacent unit cell in a radial direction, thereby altering the radial dimension, wherein the altered radial dimension corresponds to an adjusted power output of the core, and wherein the adjusted power output of the core is different than the initial power output of the core.

    摘要： Disclosed is a passively cooled nuclear reactor, comprising a heat exchanger and a nuclear reactor core disposed proximal to the heat exchanger. The nuclear reactor core comprising a fuel rod, a heat pipe located proximate to the fuel rod and extending from the nuclear reactor core into the heat exchanger, a moderator monolith configured to house and space the fuel rod and the heat pipe, and a thermal bond material disposed internally throughout the moderator monolith to surround the fuel rod and the heat pipe with the thermal bond material and to facilitate heat transfer from the nuclear reactor core to the heat exchanger.

    摘要： A configurable unit cell of a core of a nuclear reactor is disclosed herein. The configurable unit cell includes a core block material and a plurality of interchangeable components configured to affect a performance parameter of the core of the nuclear reactor. The configurable unit cell further includes a plurality of channels defined within the core block material. Each channel of the plurality of channels is configured to engage an interchangeable component of the plurality of interchangeable components in an operating configuration. Each channel of the plurality of channels is separated from an adjacent channel of the plurality of channels by a predetermined pitch.
