Connection of a hot gas line to the core barrel of a gas-cooled high- temperature nuclear reactor

摘要

A gas-cooled, high-temperature nuclear reactor includes a metallic core barrel, a graphite or carbon block lining disposed in the core barrel, a hot gas line including an outer pressure-confining metallic pipe and a ceramic flow guidance pipe, insulation separating the metallic pipe from the ceramic pipe, a stub concentric with the hot gas line, a device for detachably connecting the stub to the core barrel, the metallic pipe being tightly disposed in the stub, a device for detachably fastening the metallic pipe to the stub, a sleeve, a device for detachably fastening the sleeve to the lining, a bellows compensator being disposed in the stub and having one end tightly fastened to the stub and another end, and a device for connecting the other end to the sleeve.
