Samenvatting:
The Dutch market for combined generation of heat and power identifies aunit size of 40 MW thermal for the conceptual design of an Inherently safe
Nuclear COGENeration plant (INCOGEN). Technical, economical and licensing
issues have been investigated of the INCOGEN design which comprises pebble
fuel cooled by helium, and directly coupled with a helium compressor and
turbine. Thermohydraulic and reactor physics analyses show favourable control
characteristics during normal operation and a benign response to loss of
helium coolant and loss of flow conditions. Throughout the response on these
highly infrequent conditions, ample margin exists between the highest fuel
temperatures and the temperature above which fuel degradation will occur. 7
