Figure 1

Sketches of a three-dimensional model of the heat removal system of a 50 MW hybrid nuclear facility with a beryllium reflector located in the pool: (1) reactor vessel; (2) neutron reflector; (3) outlet (hot) pipeline; (4) supply (cold) pipeline; (5) volume compensator; (6) steam generator; (7) steam pipe; (8) air heat exchanger; (9) condensate return; (10) air heat exchanger housing; (11) chimney; (12) valves of the shortened natural circulation circuit; (13) reactor pool; (14) pipelines of the pool cooling circuit; (15) natural circulation valve through the reflector.
