See full text

The invention relates to a pebble bed reactor comprising a core cavity filled with spherical fuel elements and bounded by reflector material. Spherical fuel elements pass through the core cavity under the effect of gravity. Coolant gas flows through the core cavity in a descending or ascending stream. The coolant-gas lines provided for the purpose discharge laterally above the base of the cavity bottom. In the reactor according to the invention, coolant gas can be conveyed through the pile of fuel elements without problems over long operating times.
