Gas-cooled fast reactor — The Gas Cooled Fast Reactor (GFR) system is a nuclear reactor design which is currently in development. Classed as a Generation IV reactor, it features a fast neutron spectrum and closed fuel cycle for efficient conversion of fertile uranium and… … Wikipedia
CANDU reactor — The CANDU reactor is a Canadian invented, pressurized heavy water reactor developed initially in the late 1950s and 1960s by a partnership between Atomic Energy of Canada Limited (AECL), the Hydro Electric Power Commission of Ontario (now known… … Wikipedia
Molten salt reactor — scheme. A molten salt reactor (MSR) is a type of nuclear fission reactor in which the primary coolant, or even the fuel itself is a molten salt mixture. MSRs run at higher temperatures than water cooled reactors for higher thermodynamic… … Wikipedia
Nuclear reactor physics — See also: Critical mass Nuclear reactor physics is the branch of science that deals with the study and application of chain reaction to induce controlled rate of fission for energy in reactors. Most nuclear reactors use a chain reaction to induce … Wikipedia

Gaseous fission reactor — A gas nuclear reactor (or gas fueled reactor ) limits the only temperature limiting materials in a reactor to the reactor walls. A limitation for conventional nuclear fission reactors is that if the nuclear fuel temperature were to rise too high… … Wikipedia
Plug flow reactor model — The plug flow reactor (PFR) model is used to describe chemical reactions in continuous, flowing systems. The PFR model is used to predict the behaviour of chemical reactors, so that key reactor variables, such as the dimensions of the reactor,… … Wikipedia
