ABSTRACT:
A corrosion preventing device for use in an in-pile structure of a helium gas-cooled reactor for removing gaseous oxidating components from a primary cooling gas in a pressure vessel of the reactor to thus prevent oxidation of graphite members of the reactor pile. An oxidation product consuming member is provided in series with a primary cooling gas supply pipeline or a bypass pipeline thereof along with a device for heating the oxidation product consuming member. The oxidation product consuming member may be a single cylindrical member or a bundle of rods having a large number of through holes formed therein in a honeycomb pattern in the lengthwise direction thereof or a large number of balls. The material of the oxidation product consuming member should have a high affinity for oxidizing impurities at elevated temperatures. Preferably, the material of the oxidation product consuming member is carbon or graphite.
