Abstract

See full text

The present invention relates to an outlet nozzle of a nuclear reactor. More specifically, in the outlet nozzle of a nuclear reactor which is provided to a reactor vessel and into which the coolant discharged from the nozzle of a structure in the reactor is introduced, the outlet nozzle of a nuclear reactor has an inclination part formed at one side of the outlet nozzle such that the inclination part is inclined at a predetermined angle from the outside end to the inside thereof. The present invention has an effect, wherein the one side of the outlet nozzle into which the coolant is introduced from the nozzle of a structure in the nuclear reactor is inclined or rounded such that an inspection robot (ASME Sec XI IWB-3512) for inspecting the presence of a defect in the coupling state of the reactor while moving along the inside surface of the reactor vessel in the reactor can move to the lower side of the reactor, and thus the volumetric inspection of the reactor by the inspection robot can be freely and continuously advanced such that the volumetric inspection can be carried out to 100% without any excluded portion for welded parts. In addition, the stability of the nuclear reactor can be more effectively verified as the volumetric inspection is carried out to 100%.
