Description
The hydrogen isotope tritium is of particular interest as related to high-temperature gas-cooled reactors (HTR), because it is the only radionuclide which can permeate from the primary circuit through heat exchanger walls into secondary circuits and there cause an unwanted contamination. The AVR-reactor started its operation in December 1967 and since then numerous measurements have been made in the helium coolant and on the steam side. Moreover, a series of in-pile and laboratory experiments has been performed aimed at a better understanding of tritium behaviour in a HTR. The view we have got by these studies shall be discussed in this paper
