Abstract

926,615. Nuclear power plant. ROLLS-ROYCE Ltd. June 2, 1960 [May 1, 1959], No. 15052/59. Class 39 (4). [Also in Group XIII] A nuclear reactor is used to superheat steam, of which a first part is fed from the reactor to two parallel steam generators where it is used to generate and superheat steam which is supplied to the reactor, and of which a second part is fed to a location of use, for example, in turbines where it is condensed, the condensate being returned to the steam generators by a single feed-water pump. The Figure shows a reactor 10 which supplies steam to steam generators 13; the generated steam is expanded through a nozzle and mixed with the steam from the reactor in a thermopump 17, and the mixture is returned to the reactor. The rest of the steam from the reactor is used in secondary steam generators 29, from which condensate is returned by way of heaters 51 and a pump 50 to the generators 13. The pressure at the pump inlet is held constant by means of a mixing chamber 73 connected to a pressurizing tank 76 to which are fed controlled amounts of steam and water. The pump is driven by steam from generators 29. In an emergency, water is forced from tank 130 into the reactor, after which coolant is allowed to flow by convection through tanks 131. Various auxiliary and emergency pumps 60, 65, 115 are provided, and so is a start-up steam generator 100. The pump 50 is driven by steam from generators 29. There is a water treatment plant 90 and a make-up water tank 83 which acts as an emergency condenser. Specifications 907,708 and 926,616 are referred to.
