Abstract

844,188. Nuclear reactors. GENERAL ELECTRIC CO. Ltd., and SIMON-CARVES Ltd. Jan. 29, 1959 [Feb. 5, 1958], No. 3770/58. Class 39(4). A pressure vessel for a heterogeneous reactor comprises a barrel-shaped middle part 12 and curved end caps 13, 14, continuous at the joint lines. The parts of the vessel may be generated by arcs of circles, ellipses, or other curves.
