Operational and Maintenance Experience with the Dragon Reactor Experiment

Creators

Description

The vital importance of reliability in nuclear power plants is stressed and the general principles of failure are used to select areas of Dragon operating experience for discussion. This approach emphasises the need to consider negative as well as positive information and on both counts the Dragon experience indicates that the High Temperature Reactor possesses inherent qualities which favour the achievement of reliability.
