New
design solutions have been proposed for a BRS-GPG type reactor circuit, which
are different from transport and stationary low and medium-powered reactor
installations cooled with heavy liquid-metal coolants, and which correspond to
the evolutionary development of such installations. While developing these
solutions, the available experience in creating and operating Soviet pilot and commercial power plants cooled with
lead-bismuth coolants was used, including investigations, primarily
experimental ones, carried out by team of authors in justification of a
capacity range (50-250 MW) of low and
medium-powered reactor plants with horizontal steam generators (BRS-GPG) proposed and
elaborated at the NNSTU.
