Reactor pressure vessel

Description

The invention concerns the layout of a reactor pressure vessel, where a pressure-loaded steel vessel is pressed by a surrounding concrete cylinder in the axial direction so as to be pressure-resistant. The vessel described is itself pressure-resistant in the radial direction, i.e. the individual boiler rings are resistant to tension, it has a closure head domed to the inside and a flat floor. While the pressing takes place over the domed closure head, all important coolant pipes are taken through the floor of the steel vessel (protection against bursting). (HP)

Abstract (German)

Die Erfindung betrifft den Aufbau eines Reaktordruckgefaesses, wobei ein druckfester Stahlbehaelter von einem diesen ungebenden Betonzylinder in axialer Richtung druckfest zusammengepresst wird. Der beschriebene Behaelter ist in radialer Richtung in sich druckfest, d.h. die einzelnen Kesselschuesse sind zugfest, er besitzt einen nach innen gewoelbten Deckel und einen ebenen Boden. Waehrend die Zusammenpressung ueber den gewoelbten Deckel erfolgt, werden alle wesentlichen Kuehlmittelleitungen durch den Boden des Stahlbehaelters gefuehrt. (Berstschutz). (HP)
