CS-030: HIGH TEMPERATURE GAS COOLED REACTOR CYCLE
This case study demonstrates the steady-state simulation of a High Temperature Gas-Cooled Reactor (HTGR) nuclear power plant (NPP). The HTGR is one of the most promising reactor concepts of the Nuclear Renaissance, offering advantages such as improved safety and economics, shorter construction times, distributed generation and high temperature availability for process heat applications such as hydrogen production.
