  • Nuclear Fission Reactors
CONT

The International Reactor Innovative and Secure (IRIS) reactor is a new, pressurized water-cooled nuclear power reactor design ... Two potential Integrated Primary System Reactor (IPSR) pressurizer designs are being analyzed for this research project: a steam pressurizer, and a nitrogen gas pressurizer. These two integral pressurizer designs differ from most conventional types, because they incorporate a much larger interface more closely coupled to the reactor primary system.

CONT

Integrated Modular Water Reactor(IMR) is an integrated primary system reactor being developed by a Japanese consortium. IMR is primarily designed to supply electric power through a power grid with unit output of 350MWe. In this paper, the outline of the IMR concept and the current development status is presented.

The Biotechnology Mammalian Tissue Culture facility has been conceived for research on cell and tissue culture. It will be essential in furthering our understanding of the influence of the cell microenvironment on growth and differentiation. The core of the system will provide robust control of concentration gradients and of mechanical forces thanks to the integration of fluid distribution tools, microsensors, and microactuators. The emphasis is put on the mimicking of organotypical conditions and on the acquisition of data to be used for guided tissue development and differentiation in both space and terrestrial conditions. In addition to this core cultivation subunit, a powerful diagnostics subunit allows for dedicated tools adapted to the tissue undergoing testing. The whole concept is modular in order to support upgrading and adaptation to the requirements of the experimental programme.

The European Drawer Rack(EDR) provides a modular capability for sub-rack payloads contained in Standard Experiment Drawers(SEDs) and Mid-Deck Lockers(MDLs) accommodated in an ISPR [International Standard Payload Rack]. The EDR supports the independent operation of the multiple sub-rack payload hardware as well as the provision of a standardised interface to laboratory resources. It supports payload exchange at SED or MDL level. A fundamental goal of the EDR is to support the development of smaller sub-rack payloads through the provision of accommodation and flight opportunities where quick turnaround mission objectives are required.

The Technology Exposure Facility(TEF), currently under study by ESA [European Space Agency], is a way of accommodating a wide range of research and development investigations and offering a controlled exposure to the space station environment.... The principal new feature for an exposed payload facility is the presence of a single, multi-purpose robotic servicing capability.... Together with the robotics, the modular architecture of the facility allows on orbit reconfiguration and, more significantly, a "black box" approach to the accommodation of individual payloads.
