Neutron shieldings

  • 1. Nippon Atomic Industry Group Co. Ltd., Tokyo

Description

Purpose: To decrease the stresses resulted by the core bendings to the base of an entrance nozzle. Constitution: Three types of round shielding rods of different diameter are arranged in a hexagonal tube. The hexagonal tube is provided with several spacer pads receiving the loads from the core constrain mechanism at its outer circumference, a handling head for a fuel exchanger at its top and an entrance nozzle for self-holding the neutron shieldings and flowing heat-removing coolants at its bottom. The diameters for R1, R2 and R3 for the round shielding rods are designed as: 0.1 R1 < R2 < 0.2 R1 and 0.2 R1 < R2 < 0.3 R1. Since a plurality of shielding rods of small diameter are provided, soft structure are obtained and a plurality of coolant paths are formed. (Furukawa, Y.)
