ABSTRACT:
The invention relates to a secondary heat transfer circuit for a liquid metal nuclear reactor.
Each loop of the main circuit has in order a steam generator, a pump, and at least one heat exchanger positioned in the reactor vessel. A downstream buffer tank is located in the pipe connecting the generator to the pump, whilst the upstream buffer tank can be positioned either in the generator, or outside the latter.
Application to the generation of electric power by means of a fast neutron reactor.
