| 11. | DFR was a loop-type FBR cooled by primary and secondary NaK circuits, with 24 primary coolant loops.
|
| 12. | This economizer preheats the steam generator feedwater at the steam generator inlet using the lowest-temperature primary coolant.
|
| 13. | In the rare occurrence of a fuel failure during normal operation, the primary coolant can enter the element.
|
| 14. | The lithium captures neutrons from the reactions to breed tritium, and also acts as the primary coolant loop.
|
| 15. | If the fuel cladding around the fuel develops holes, then fission products can leak into the primary coolant.
|
| 16. | I'm assuming you mean primary coolant.
|
| 17. | Thus, in boiling water reactors, in contrast to pressurized water reactors, there is only a single, primary coolant loop.
|
| 18. | Primary coolant pumps also have been added to the list of equipment detailed in the annex of the agreement.
|
| 19. | In contrast to a boiling water reactor, pressure in the primary coolant loop prevents the water from boiling within the reactor.
|
| 20. | Therefore, if the primary coolant is removed, there are not enough slow neutrons to sustain the reaction and the core cools.
