The modular reactor-A deployment strategy for the long-term HTGR goal of very high temperature operation
Description
From the onset of high temperature gas-cooled cooled reactor (HTGR) activities in the 1950s, the ultimate application of very high temperature operation for process heat use was recognized. When developed, it is projected that the very high temperature reactor (VHTR) will meet the needs of the synthetic fuel industry in the early decades of the 21st century. This paper highlights an orderly deployment strategy for advancing from an established reactor technology base to VHTR operation
