High-Temperature Gas-Cooled Reactor Steam-Cycle/Cogeneration Lead Plant Heat Transport System Design Description

摘要

The Heat Transport System consists of the pressurized helium primary coolant volume enclosed within the prestressed concrete reactor vessel liner and of the components associated with the transfer of heat emerging from the core to the feedwater in the steam generators. Specifically, the Heat Transport System helium is that contained within the four main and the three auxiliary loops (including the ducts), the plenum above the core, the core itself and the plenum below the core. This helium interfaces with the prestressed concrete reactor vessel liner and its closures, the core, the thermal barriers and the portions of the Heat Transport and Auxiliary Heat Removal Systems components which form the primary coolant pressure retaining boundaries. Specifications are presented. (ERA citation 09:004635)
