FIELD: power industry.
SUBSTANCE: space nuclear power plant includes nuclear reactor, radiation protection, liquid-metal circuit units and cooler-radiator on heat tubes; at that, heat-radiating surface of cooler-radiator is made in the form of thin-wall metal sheet, for example bimetal steel and copper sheet to the surface of which heat tubes are soldered, except evaporative section which is placed into header with heat carrier, which is located on the side of heat tubes.
EFFECT: invention allows providing rigidity of cooler-radiator design at simultaneous decrease of its weight, reducing possible temperature stresses at the joint between heat tube and header with heat carrier, which appear at failure of heat tube at meteoric breakdown.
