TEPLATOR DEMO: Basic Design of the Primary Circuit

Original language description

The TEPLATOR is an original way of district and industrial heating using nuclear power using spent nuclear fuel from nuclear power plants. The spent nuclear fuel is the one that did not reach its regulatory and design limits. This fuel can be taken either from spent fuel pool or interim storage. The fuel for TEPLATOR is already manufactured and thus no additional cost for fuel arises. This one of a kind design will be tested in a demonstration unit “TEPLATOR DEMO”. This DEMO unit has 50 MW of thermal power with 55 spent fuel assemblies of VVER-440 in the core. The fluid output temperature from the core is 98 °C, thus the whole unit can work on atmospheric pressure. It is constructed as three loop system with three main pumps and three heat exchangers. This paper describes the basic design of the primary circuit. The main idea concerning the design is explained first. Then the evolution of the design from the first steps to current 3D model is included. Next discussion is focused on individual components of the TEPLATOR (i.e., heat exchangers, pumps etc.) Briefly the construction and operation of compensation means are presented. Finally, the whole concept of the TEPLATOR DEMO and its design is summarized.
