- Summary
- This volume describes the reference Atomics International--Burns and Roe LMFBR Target Plant employing a hybrid primary system configuration. The hybrid design presented was selected after careful consideration of all the major subfeature options possible, the major tradeoffs being between the hot leg vs cold leg primary pump, and the fixed vs moving component pipe expansion compensation. The design employs a cold leg primary pump and the loops have a fixed IHX with the pipe expansion being taken up by expansion loops. The design incorporates design features considered to be the most economical overall approach for the hybrid concept. The design is based on the current state-of-the-art of U.S. and foreign LMFBR technology. The required development can be accomplished on a schedule compatible with the PLBR schedule.
