Abstract
A pressurized water reactor (PWR) includes: a pressure vessel divided into an upper plenum containing primary coolant, a lower plenum containing primary coolant, and a steam generator plenum interposed between the upper plenum and the lower plenum and containing secondary coolant; a nuclear reactor core comprising fissile material disposed in the lower plenum; one or more risers arranged to convey primary coolant upward from the nuclear reactor core to the upper plenum; and a plurality of tubes passing through the steam generator plenum and arranged to convey primary coolant downward from the upper plenum to the lower plenum. A steam separator is operatively connected with the steam generator plenum to separate secondary coolant in the steam phase from secondary coolant in the water phase.
