Abstract

A nuclear power plant (heating plant) with a helium cooled high temperature reactor with spherical fuel elements, located in a cylindrical prestressed concrete pressure vessel, suitable for supplying heat (for local or remote heating or the generation of process steam) with a capacity of approximately 50 to 300 MWth. The high temperature reactor core is located out of center in the prestressed concrete pressure vessel, with at least two heat exchangers installed adjacent and offset in the upward direction relative to it. The heat exchangers are each connected on the secondary side to an intermediate circulation loop including an intermediate heat exchanger and circulating pump, and have an auxiliary circulation loop with a recooling system connected in parallel with them for the removal of decay heat. The auxiliary loops are closed in normal operation.
