Preliminary Evaluation of Operational Performance with Two Reactor Design Options for NHDD Application
- 1. Korea Atomic Energy Research Institute, Taejon (Korea, Republic of)
Description
The hydrogen production system coupled with a very high temperature gas-cooled reactor (VHTR) is considered as one of the most promising application to allow new processes of massive hydrogen production. Korea Atomic Energy Research Institute (KAERI) is considering a pebble bed modular reactor (PBR) and a prismatic modular reactor (PMR) as the candidates for the reactor type of nuclear hydrogen development and demonstration (NHDD) system. The reactors are being considered to be operated at the temperature higher than 950 .deg. C with the reduced system pressure as low as possible because the operating pressure of the hydrogen production system is expected to be not as high as that of the primary system. In this study, therefore, a preliminary evaluation of operating performance is performed with two reactor design options for NHDD application
