Subject field(s)
  • 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.

Subject field(s)
  • Orbital Stations
CONT

The International Transport Rack(ITR) ... launched inside the SPACEHAB Logistic Double Module (LDM), will offer the transport potential for various drawer payloads. Beside the provision of passive mechanical interfaces for lockers and different types of drawers up to 12 panel units (PU, 1PU = 4.45cm), the ITR will also be equipped with resources for power, cooling and data handling. The ITR features the support of the logistic ISS re-supply and the operation of user payloads during the flight to/from the ISS.

OBS

The ITR design is based on a modular concept and includes the capabilities necessary to operate active payloads : The main ITR functions are implemented in four units : Rack Structure Power Distribution Unit(PDU) [;] Thermal subsystem Command & Data handling subsystem(Laptop Unit).

OBS

international transport rack; ITR: term and abbreviation officially approved by the International Space Station official approval Group (ISSOAG).
