Abstract

See full text

A high temperature reactor has a downflow type nuclear reactor provided at the top portion thereof with a gas inlet and a plurality of steam generators provided around the nuclear reactor. The steam generator has a heat insulation tube provided vertically from the bottom portion of the nuclear reactor to a level higher than the top gas inlet of the reactor, a heat exchanger provided in a descending gas flow path formed around the heat insulation tube, and a gas circulator provided at the bottom portion thereof for feeding a gas coolant to the gas inlet of the nuclear reactor, whereby said gas coolant, after being used for cooling the reactor core, delivered from the bottom portion of the reactor, flows into the heat insulation tube, flows upward to the top portion of the tube, is reversed in direction at the top end of the tube, then flows downward through the descending gas flow where the heat exchanger is provided, and is then recycled to the gas inlet flow path of the reactor by the gas circulator.
