ABSTRACT:
Heat exchanger for a nuclear reactor of the type in which the main vessel is sealed by an upper slab, comprises a plurality of substantially straight exchange tubes mounted between on the one hand an upper annular tube plate associated with a secondary fluid discharge chamber and on the other a lower annular tube plate associated with a supply chamber, a ferrule surrounding the said tubes and provided with a discharge orifice for the primary fluid, a central shaft which communicates with the supply chamber, and a supply manifold and a discharge manifold for the secondary fluid, wherein it comprises a supporting ferrule fixed to the periphery of the upper tube plate and sealed at its upper end by a dome, said ferrule having on its outer periphery a supporting flange by the said slab, the manifolds being superimposed in the supporting ferrule and fixed to a horizontal plate, which is itself fixed to the supporting ferrule, the supply manifold being connected by at least one pipe to the upper end of the shaft, the discharge manifold being connected to the discharge chamber also by means of a pipe, whereby the pipes are positioned in the supporting ferrule.
