4 . . PROTOTYPE FAST BREEDER REACTOR
114 BARC HIGHLIGHTS REACTOR Technology & EngineeringPrototype fast BREEDER ReactorThe second stage of Indian nuclear power programme involves establishing fast BREEDER Reactors for power generation. The PROTOTYPE FastBreeder REACTOR is being developed to demonstrate the techno-economic viability of fast BREEDER REACTOR technology. This chapter highlightsthe recent activities carried out in the fields of radiation shielding and design of inclined fuel transfer 4 4 4 4 .. PROTOTYPE fast BREEDER REACTORINTRODUCTION115 REACTOR Technology & Engineering BARC HIGHLIGHTSP rototype fast BREEDER ReactorThe PFBR is a 500 MWe, sodium cooled, pool type, mixed oxide (MOX) fuelled REACTOR having two secondary loops. The primary objective ofthe PFBR is to demonstrate techno-economic viability of fast BREEDER reactors on an industrial scale. The entire primary sodium circuit iscontained in a large diameter vessel ( 12900 mm) called main vessel and consists of core, primary pumps, intermediate heat exchanger andprimary pipe connecting the pumps and the grid plate.
