FISSION NUCLEAR REACTOR, FLOW CONTROL ASSEMBLY, RELATED METHODS AND FLOW CONTROL ASSEMBLY SYSTEM Russian patent published in 2014 - IPC G21C7/00 

Abstract RU 2531359 C2

FIELD: physics, atomic power.

SUBSTANCE: group of inventions relates to coolant flow in nuclear reactors. The flow control assembly is connected to a nuclear fission module capable of producing a travelling burn wave at a location relative to the nuclear fission module. The flow control assembly controls flow of a fluid in response to the location relative to the nuclear fission module. The flow control assembly comprises a flow regulator subassembly configured to operate according to an operating parameter associated with the nuclear fission module. Furthermore, the flow regulator subassembly is reconfigurable according to a predetermined input to the flow regulator subassembly. Also, the flow control assembly comprises a carriage connected to the flow regulator subassembly for adjusting the flow regulator subassembly to vary fluid flow into the nuclear fission module.

EFFECT: eliminating dependence of reactor operation on growth properties of structural materials caused by neutron exposure.
