Abstract

A double walled container, with neutron absorber between the walls, contains a number of elongated cells, plugged with lead stopper and these are filled with esp He for transport. The space between the cells and the inner wall of the casing is water filled wand a central heat exchanger assembly with lead shields between it and the cells, is connected detachably to external radiators. Air pipes in the neutron shielding of the casing provide a reverse current thermosyphon for additional heat dissipation. A cover is bolted to the casing.
