ABSTRACT:
In a liquid metal cooled fast neutron nuclear reactor plant, surfaces (12) which are immersed in the flowing liquid metal and are vulnerable to liquid metal temperature fluctuations are provided with fins (20) defining cavities (22) for at least temporarily trapping the liquid metal to produce a thin layer of the liquid metal on the surface and thereby attenuate the effect of temperatures fluctuations occurring in the liquid metal flow.
