COMPARISON OF GASES FOR USE AS THE COOLANT IN A GAS-COOLED REACTOR

Description: The expression STAM(Pr) /sup 2/3//(M Cp)/sup 3/! which is often used to compare the merits of various gas coolants is derived and the errors involved in using this term are discussed. An example using CO/sub 2/ and He is shown to illustrate the difference between the true pumping power required and that predicted by the above expression. (auth)

THE HGCR-1, A DESIGN STUDY OF A NUCLEAR POWER STATION EMPLOYING A HIGH- TEMPERATURE GAS-COOLED REACTOR WITH GRAPHITE-UO$sub 2$ FUEL ELEMENTS

Description: The preliminary design of a 3095-Mw(thermal), helium-cooled, graphite- moderated reactor employing sign conditions, 1500 deg F reactor outlet gas would be circulated to eight steam generators to produce 1050 deg F, 1450-psi steam which would be converted to electrical power in eight 157-Mw(electrical) turbine- generators. The over-all efficiency of this nuclear power station is 36.5%. The significant activities released from the unclad graphite-UO/sub 2/ fuel appear to be less than 0.2% of thos… more
