891,852. Gas-turbine plant. BABCOCK & WILCOX Ltd. June 3, 1958 [June 3, 1957], No. 17607/57. Class 110 (3). [Also in Groups XIII and XL (a)] Gas, e.g. (CO 2 , H 2 , He) is circulated through nuclear reactor 102 and heat-exchanger tower 103 by a compressor 163 coupled to a turbine 203 driven by the gas leaving the reactor. The gas is cooled in tower 103 before compression and is re-heated in section 127 of the tower after compression. Turbine, compressor and starting motor 194 are in a common pressure shell 201.
