Abstract

A heat exchanger and method for making such a heat exchanger suitable for use in a nuclear reactor. The heat exchanger comprises a first conduit for a first fluid and a second conduit for a second fluid. The first and second conduits are embedded in a heat conductive solid matrix formed in situ around the conduits. The matrix may be formed of copper. The use of a solid matrix between the conduits creates multiple barriers between the first and second fluids, i.e. between a liquid metal coolant used to cool a reactor core and water/steam.
