Comparison of advanced fast reactor pool and loop configurations from the viewpoint of construction cost

Chikazawa, Yoshitaka ; Kotake, Shoji; Sawada, Shusaku*

Comparative evaluation of fast reactor pool/loop configurations in the JAEA feasibility study (FS) from 1996 to 2006 has been summarized. A brief description of the FS pool concept (FS-pool) has been provided. FS-pool pursues a compact reactor vessel structure using a flask shape intermediate heat exchanger. The present comparison based on the reactor vessel structure and primary cooling system pointed out relatively good economic potential of the FS-loop concept, because differences in the secondary cooling systems of the pool/loop configurations are not essential from the viewpoint of pool/loop comparison.
