Abstract
An improved design for shielding the component parts of a gas turbine power plant from radiation in a gas transport conduit is disclosed. The radiation shield and shielded gas conduit utilize a shielding arrangement comprising a displacement body arranged centrally within the conduit and a shielding annulus surrounding the displacement body. A shielding device provides for a first annular flow path for reactor cooling gas between the displacement body and shielding annulus and a second annular flow path for reactor cooling gas between the shielding annulus and the conduit housing. The shielding device provides protection against radiation without significantly disrupting the flow of the cooling gas in the conduits.
