UNIVERSAL INVERTED REACTOR AND METHOD FOR THE DESIGN AND MANUFACTURE OF A UNIVERSAL INVERTED REACTOR Russian patent published in 2021 - IPC G21C13/02 

FIELD: nuclear power industry.

SUBSTANCE: invention relates to a nuclear fission reactor. The reactor contains a shell covering the reactor space, inside of which there is a central longitudinal channel, a set of axially extending rings with adjacent rings bounding an annular cylindrical space in which the first set of axial pipes of the first circuit is located along the circumference. The axial pipes of the first circuit adjacent to the circumference are separated by one of the said set of additional channels, and the set of edges connects at least a section of the said set of axial pipes of the first circuit with an adjacent structure. In at least some of the above-mentioned set of additional channels, a composition of fissile nuclear fuel is located, and at least in some of the axial pipes of the first circuit, the coolant of the first circuit flows.

EFFECT: possibility of optimizing the process of manufacturing a nuclear reactor, including through the possibility of using additive and/or subtractive production methods, due to the integrity of a single design for a reactor space with fuel loading.
