Description

The experimental program presented is concerned with the nuclear equipment working in sodium: development of a metallic thermal insulation to protect the lower part of the top shield of the main vessel, control rod drive mechanisms, sodium pumps, sodium intermediate heat exchangers, sodium purification, quality control of the sodium valves, fuel handling system

Abstract (French)

Le programme des essais presente concerne les materiels equipant la chaudiere nucleaire et qui sont destines a fonctionner en presence de sodium: mise au point d'un calorifuge metallique destine a proteger la face inferieure de la dalle de fermeture de la cuve principale, mecanismes de commande du reacteur, pompes a sodium, echangeurs intermediaires a sodium, purification du sodium, qualification des vannes des circuits sodium, chaine de manutention du combustible
