HTGR Applications Program. Semiannual report, April 1, 1982-September 24, 1982
Description
This report summarizes the current progress of the GA commercial HTGR application program, which includes studies of three basic nuclear heat source categories related to core outlet temperatures of 7500C (13820F), 8500C (15620F), and 9500C (17470F). These categories in turn define the supporting technical systems and the potential process applications. The heat sources are presented in the report as the HTGR-SC/C, the HTGR-PH (monolithic plant), The HTGR-MRS-PH and SC/C plants, and the HTGR-GT/C plant concept. Emphasis is placed on the 2240-MW(t) HTGR-SC/C plant, which can provide for the cogeneration production of process steam and electric power. The status of plant performance, NSSS component and core nuclear density, plant control and instrumentation, dynamics, availability and maintainability, safety/reliability, licensing, fuel cycle cost, and economics and BOP interfacing is included
