AbstractAbstract
[en] Phenix is a 250 MWe prototype power plant of the type of sodium-cooled fast breeder reactors. It is siting in the Marcoule Center, in southern France. Begun in 1968, the construction ended at the end of 1973. After severe tests have been completed, the industrial exploitation was pronounced on July 14, 1974. Then, this power plant has been operated for three years and contributes to the French programme of fast power plants. These three years can be divided into two parts. The first two years specially characterized by satisfactory operation allowed the plant 'reactions' to be perfectly known and the utilization procedure to be improved. The third year devoted to an important intervention made necessary after on sodium leak on one exchanger was interesting in view of the new original experience thus afforded with regard to reactor components

La centrale Phenix est une centrale prototype de type surregenerateur a neutrons rapides refroidi au sodium, d'une puissance de 250 MWe. Elle est implantee sur le centre de Marcoule, dans le sud de la France. Commencee en 1968, la construction a ete terminee a la fin de l'annee 1973. Apres des essais tres complets, la mise en service industrielle a ete prononcee le 14 juillet 1974. Il y a donc trois ans que cette centrale est en fonctionnement, et contribue au programme francais de centrales a neutrons rapides. Ces trois annees peuvent etre divisees en deux periodes. Les deux premieres annees, au fonctionnement particulierement satisfaisant, ont permis de connaitre parfaitement les reactions de l'installation, et de parfaire les procedures d'utilisation. La troisieme annee, consacree a une intervention importante necessitee par une fuite de sodium sur les echangeurs, a apporte une connaissance interessante sur des operations encore jamais faites sur des composants du coeurOriginal Title
