ABSTRACT:
Heat exchanger of a nuclear reactor, whose vessel is sealed by a slab, the exchanger being of the type which has within a vertically axed outer ferrule a plurality of heat exchange modules with substantially straight tubes, each of the said modules having a secondary fluid inlet chamber and a secondary fluid outlet chamber and means for introducing and removing the primary fluid with respect to the exchange modules, wherein it comprises a base plate peripherally fixed to the said outer ferrule, means for supporting the outer ferrule by the slab, supporting ferrules for the modules, each ferrule traversing the base plate and being connected on the one hand to the upper end of the module and on the other to the said base plate, a plurality of pipes for the supply and removal of the secondary fluid sealingly traversing the base plate, a supply manifold and a discharge manifold for the secondary fluid positioned within the outer ferrule above the base plate, said manifolds being respectively connected to the supply and discharge pipes of the secondary fluid, means for supporting the manifolds and a plurality of biological protection plates positioned within the outer ferrule above the base plate and level with the slab, said protection plates being supported by the manifold supporting means and permitting the passage of the secondary fluid and discharge pipes.
