Description

There is a re-emerging interest in small and medium size nuclear power plants, particularly in the developing countries. At the same time, especially since the three Mile Island accident, there has grown a greater concern about the safety of the present day nuclear power reactors. These have caused the emergence of many new nuclear reactor concepts. A new nuclear reactor design based on the fluidized bed concept is proposed. (Author)

Abstract (Portuguese)

Existe im interesse novo sobre usinas nucleares de pequeno e medio porte, particularmente em paises em desenvolvimento. Ao mesmo tempo desde o acidente de Three Mile Island, existe um grande consenso sobre a seguranca dos reatores nucleares nos dias de hoje. Isto tem causado o aparecimento de muitos novos conceitos de reatores nucleares. Apresenta-se um novo projeto de reator nuclear baseado no conceito de leito fluidizado. (E.G.)
