NUCLEAR REACTOR

摘要

The invention provides a mixing device which defines a mixing chamber having two inlets leading into the mixing chamber at angularly spaced positions. Th e device further includes an outlet leading from the mixing chamber. The mixin g chamber is typically generally spherical in shape with the outlet being positioned diametrically opposite one of the inlets. The invention further provides a nuclear power plant having a core conditioning system including a pair of heat exchangers, namely a recuperator and a water cooled heat exchanger. The recuperator has a hot side and a cold side and the plant includes a mixing device positioned upstream of the inlet on the hot side of the recuperator to permit the temperature of gas being fed to the recuperato r to be restricted to a predetermined maximum by mixing hot and cold gas in th e mixing device prior to feeding the mixture into the hot side of the recuperator.
