Abstract

Improvements in nuclear reactors, characterized by comprising a reactor core structure generally cylindrical in shape; a pressure vessel that encloses the reactor core and limits a generally "D" shaped section ring with the sides of the reactor core; means limiting openings in the walls of the pressure vessel in the region of the ring; Radially long coolant circulation ducts from said openings, and screens arranged between the openings and the reactor core, such that the ducts are exposed only to tolerable activation when the reactor operates, and to tolerable gamma radiation when the reactor remains idle.
