ABSTRACT:
A calandria for use in conducting the hot coolant of a nuclear reactor transversely. The calandria includes an upper plate and a lower plate which support tubes. The plates and tubes are enclosed in a shell which extends above the upper plate and has a supporting flange. The lower plate has holes for transmitting coolant into the region between the plates. The shell has openings whose boundaries mate with the outlet nozzles of the reactor. The tubes are of stainless steel and are dimensioned so that they have mass, stiffness and strength such that they are not subject to failure by the transverse flow of the coolant even at a high velocity.
