ABSTRACT:
A nuclear reactor is described in which a core having a plurality of columnar fuel regions with coolant passages therein and valve means for each fuel region regulating, separately, the flow of coolant therethrough, is provided with collecting means at the downstream ends of the passages. The collecting means define a plurality of discharge orifices and a plurality of intake means, one for each of the discharge orifices. Each of the intake means commingles a portion of the coolant from each of a plurality of adjacent fuel regions in a respective one of the discharge orifices.
