Réacteur nucléaire produisant autant de combustible fissile qu'il en consomme. 3, record 1, French, - r%C3%A9acteur%20iso%2Dg%C3%A9n%C3%A9rateur
Record number: 1, Textual support number: 1 CONT
Dans le cas d'un réacteur iso-générateur, la masse de matière fissile est constante dans le cœur, et seule la matière fertile diminue. Ainsi, chaque fission qui a lieu dans le réacteur provient d'un noyau de fertile (non fissile) qui aura auparavant capturé un neutron pour produire un noyau fissile. On ne consomme donc que de la matière fertile. 4, record 1, French, - r%C3%A9acteur%20iso%2Dg%C3%A9n%C3%A9rateur
