INTERNALLY COOLED MOLTEN-SALT REACTORS [PDF]

, 1959
The initial and long-term nuclear characteristics of two internally cooled heteroingeneous graphite-moderated two-region molten-salt reactors were studied. The reactors have doubling times of 22.5 and 27.5 years. Methods of decreasing the doubling times by removing the Pa/sup 233/ from the core and by increasing the specific power of the reactor are ...

MOLTEN-SALT BREEDER REACTORS

, 1960
The problems involved in buildiing a molten-salt thermalbreeder reactor are reviewed, and it is concluded that the most feasible construction is an externally-cooled reactor with the fuel salt passing through the reactcr core in graphite tubes. A reactor with 15% of the core vollume occupied by fuel salt and 5% occupied by fertile salt would have a net
