COMPENSATOR Russian patent published in 2010 - IPC F22B37/42 

FIELD: heating.

SUBSTANCE: invention relates to power engineering and can be used at nuclear plant steam generators exploiting liquid-metal heat carrier to compensate its measure expansion. Proposed compensator comprises housing with fluid-metal heat carrier inlet and outlet branch pipes, pipelines for gas ejected from the housing upper chambers. Recirculation pipeline baffle incorporates injector with its housing accommodating electromagnetic pump to make small-flow section confuser. Ejected gas pipelines are brought at right angle to each other inside said confuser and, further on, make a diffuser inclined inlet into liquid-metal heat carrier feed branch pipe.

EFFECT: smoothing compensation of heat carrier measure expansion and reduction of metal dust propagation, higher reliability.
