T-shaped coupling with a thermal sleeve

Description

A T-junction is described; it has an outer wall structure with a tubular input piece which can be connected to an intake pipe or another container, and an inner thermal sleave assembled to the outer structure inside the tubular piece in such a way as to form an annular space closed at one end. The distinctive feature of this joint is that the above annular space is closed at another end to stop the circulation of fluid in this space. The joint is designed in particular for the intake of cold water to compensate the high temperature supply water of nuclear reactors

Abstract (French)

On decrit un raccord en forme de T comprenant une structure externe de paroi comportant une piece tubulaire d'admission pouvant etre raccordee a un conduit de prise, cette piece tubulaire pouvant etre reliee a un autre recipient, et un manchon thermique interieur assemble a la structure externe dans la piece tubulaire de maniere a former un espace annulaire referme a une extremite. Ce raccord est caracterise en ce que cet espace annulaire est ferme a une autre extremite de facon a empecher la circulation de fluide dans cet espace. Ce raccord est notamment destine a introduire de l'eau froide de compensation dans l'eau d'alimentation a temperature elevee de reacteurs nucleaires
