Abstract
A nuclear reactor with a liquid metal coolant includes a housing having a separating shell disposed therein. In the annular space between the housing and the separating shell are disposed at least one steam generator and at least one pump. Inside the separating shell there is an active region, above which a heat collector is disposed. The heat collector is in communication with the vertically central portion of the steam generator in order to separate a stream of liquid metal coolant into ascending and descending flows. Alternatively, the heat collector is in communication with the upper portion of the steam generator in order to create a counter-flow heat exchange regime. Below the reactor head is an upper horizontal cold collector with an unfilled level of coolant, and below the steam generator is a lower accumulating collector in communication with the upper cold collector.
