Achievement of coolant temperature of 950$$^{circ}$$C in HTTR

Kawasaki, Kozo; Iyoku, Tatsuo; Tachibana, Yukio ; Nakazawa, Toshio; Goto, Minoru  

High Temperature Engineering Test Reactor (HTTR) achieved a coolant temperature of 950$$^{circ}$$C at reactor outlet with its rated thermal power of 30MW on April 19, 2004. Achievement of the reactor outlet coolant temperature of 950$$^{circ}$$C makes it possible to extend use of high-temperature gas-cooled reactors beyond the field of electric power generation. Not only highly effective power generation with a high-temperature gas turbine system but also hydrogen production from water without emission of carbon dioxide will be possible utilizing the high temperature heat. This report describes the results of the high-temperature test operation of the HTTR.
