Sodium cooled fast reactors
Daňhel, Aleš ; Katovský, Karel (referee) ; Foral, Štěpán (advisor)
This bachelor’s thesis deals with the sodium-cooled fast reactors. It comprehensively describes the problem of sodium-cooled fast reactors. Attention was paid to the basic specifications and parameters of these reactors. There was briefly described nuclear reactions which are under way in core of sodium-cooled fast reactors but also chemical reactions which are linked to function of liquid sodium as a coolant and heat transfer substance. Attention was also paid to the differences in the reactor core configuration and to the machine device specific for sodium-cooled fast reactors. Further on this bachelor’s thesis puts on the overview of sodium-cooled fast reactors that have worked, are still working or are under construction in each country all over the world. There was briefly described generation IV nuclear reactors, particularly its history and reasons that originate generation IV. Under generation IV was also described nuclear reactor SFR and highlighted differences compared to existing sodium-cooled fast reactors. In the practical part of this bachelor’s thesis is easily made a calculation of the heat transfer from the fuel rod to the cooling sodium and there is also mentioned course of the heat transfer coefficient along the fuel rod. This calculation was made by computing program MATLAB.
