Sodium-cooled fast reactors

Soviet Atomic Energy, 1964
Based on the operational experience of the experimental fast reactor BR-5, the prototype of a full-scale fast-reactor power station of 350 Mwe and 1000 Mwt is being designed. Fuel elements are stainless steel tubes filled with uranium and plutonium dioxides, ribbed for spacing, and inserted into subassemblies. The radial blanket consists of cylindrical
