Abstract

1,072,512. Cooling reactors. BABCOCK & WILCOX Ltd. June 21, 1965 [June 19, 1964], No. 25533/64. Heading G6C. The core of a gas cooled nuclear reactor is mounted together with heat exchangers within a concrete pressure vessel. An inverted capshaped biological shield separates the core and heat exchangers. Water is supplied to the exchangers by pipes through the concrete and emerges as steam through further piping. Provision is made at the heat exchangers to accommodate movements due to thermally induced dimension changes. The gas ducts between the exchangers and the biological shield include flexible bellow-type couplings. Similarly, the water and steam tubes include flexible bellows between the concrete vessel walls and the heat exchangers. In addition, each heat exchanger is supported from the vessel wall by a ball or roller and groove mounting. The gas pumps are mounted within bores in the concrete wall.
