In the monolithic type pebble bed reactor, the dimension of the reactor core diameter becomes large, and nuclear control for a large-sized reactor having a large output scale is insufficient in a cooled state using only control elements(control rod, boron sphere) inserted into the reflector region. Furthermore, a reactor core control rod, which is forcibly inserted directly into the reactor core, is required in addition to the control elements inserted into the reflector region by gravity drop only. Moreover, cases have been reported that fuel spheres are broken if the control rod is inserted forcibly into the core because the pebble reactor core is full of fuel spheres accumulated inside the reactor core, which causes a serious drawback. 1, record 3, English, - pebble%20bed%20reactor%20core

As silver, indium, and cadmium control rods are extracted from the core, the fuel heats up. Water circulated through the fuel rod area at 2000 psi [pounds per square inch] is heated to 600°F.

La caractéristique essentielle d'un réacteur surgénérateur est qu'il produit plus de combustible qu'il n'en consomme grâce à l'absorption des neutrons excédentaires par un matériau qui, lui-même, se transformera en matériau fissile. Plusieurs types de réacteurs surgénérateurs sont techniquement réalisables. [...] Le système de surgénérateur sur lequel se sont concentrés les plus grands efforts de développement est le réacteur rapide à métal liquide (LMFBR). Pour obtenir le maximum de plutonium-239, la vitesse des neutrons provoquant la fission doit rester élevée, avec une énergie égale ou proche de leur énergie initiale. Tous les matériaux modérateurs qui pourraient ralentir les neutrons, comme l'eau, doivent être exclus du réacteur. On utilise le sodium liquide qui a de très bonnes propriétés de transfert thermique. Le sodium se liquéfie à environ 100 °C et n'entre en ébullition qu'à partir de 900 °C. Ses principaux inconvénients sont sa grande réactivité chimique avec l'air et l'eau et son niveau élevé de radioactivité induite dans le réacteur. Le développement des surgénérateurs rapides à métal liquide a commencé aux États-Unis vers 1950. 2, record 9, French, - surg%C3%A9n%C3%A9rateur%20rapide%20refroidi%20par%20m%C3%A9tal%20liquide

The regeneratively cooled engine also features high performance fuel and oxidizer turbopumps that develop 69, 000 horsepower and 25, 000 horsepower respectively. Ultra-high-pressure operation of the pumps and combustion chamber allows expansion of all hot gases through a high-area-ratio exhaust nozzle to achieve efficiencies never previously attained in a production rocket engine. These advantages allow a heavier payload to be carried without increasing the launch vehicle size. 2, record 16, English, - regeneratively%20cooled%20engine

Grate fired combustors. Grate-fired systems include both pile burners and spreader-stokers. Pile burners include the old-fashioned Dutch ovens(or Dietrich cells for bagasse and coffee grounds), Wellons cells, Lanb-Cargate wet cell or gasifier burners, and inclined grate systems. Spreader-stokers are distinguished by their feed mechanism, typically a windswept or pneumatic spout or paddle wheel located above the grate and the thin bed of fuel on the grate. The stoker mechanism spreads the fuel more or less uniformly across the grate. Grate fired systems may use flat or sloping grates, with inclined grates being the most severely sloping grate systems. Grates may be stationary or moving. They may be air cooled or water cooled. Ash removal from grates may be accomplished by moving arms, steam or air blowing systems, grate moving, or hand raking. Grate fired units may be refractory lined or waterwall furnaces, depending upon vendor and purpose. 1, record 21, English, - grate%2Dfired%20combustor

In fluidized beds and suspension gasification, there is continuous relative motion of the discrete solid particles, while in fixed bed gasifiers there is much slower stratified motion of the solid bed as a whole, generally downward by gravity. The gas can then pass either in the opposite direction to the fuel(updraft or counterflow gasifiers)... or in the same direction(downdraft or coflow gasifiers).... While fixed bed coal gasifiers are updraft, biomass gasifiers can be either updraft or downdraft, depending on the purpose for which the gas is to be used. Updraft gasifiers can use very wet wood, but because the pyrolysis products are immediately cooled, the gas contains up to 30% of tar and oil. 1, record 22, English, - updraft%20gasifier
