FIELD: physics.
SUBSTANCE: invention relates to gas heat carrier circulation circuit of space nuclear power plants. Gas heat carrier circulation circuit of space nuclear power plant includes nuclear reactor with core cooling path and reactor body cooling path, a turbine connected via a pipeline to the output of a nuclear reactor, a refrigerator-radiator, the input of which is connected via a pipeline to the outlet of the turbine, and a compressor. Compressor inlet by pipeline is connected to outlet of refrigerator-radiator, and compressor outlet is connected via pipeline with core cooling circuit and connected to pipeline cooling circuit of reactor housing. At least one of the pipelines connecting the compressor outlet with the core cooling channels and the reactor housing is equipped with the gas heat carrier flow regulator.
EFFECT: technical result is reduction of mass and dimensions characteristics of circulation circuit at simultaneous provision of specified flow characteristics of gas heat carrier.
