ABSTRACT:
An all metal pipe coupling assembly especially suitable for fluid connecting together certain components submerged within liquid metal in a pool type nuclear reactor is disclosed herein. This coupling assembly which is also submerged within the pool of liquid metal connects the reactor components together using three tubular sections and two joint arrangements which eliminate thermal expansion stresses. The joint arrangements also maintain low seismic stresses and are pressure energized to minimize leakage.
