Le D2O suit la tubulure de retour de la garniture vers l'aspiration des pompes d'alimentation. Une petite quantité d'eau fuit après les joints primaires, ce qui refroidit et lubrifie l'arbre et le joint. Le D2O qui fuit après le joint primaire final passe dans le circuit de collecte des fuites de D02O du circuit caloporteur. 1, record 1, French, - joint%20primaire
