World's First NUCLEAR SALT REACTOR - Documentary Films

A liquified salt activator (MSR) is a lesson of nuclear fission activators where the key coolant, or additionally the energy itself, is a liquified salt mix. MSRs carry out at greater temperature level degrees than water-cooled activators for higher thermodynamic cost savings, while staying at reduced vapor stress.
In lots of styles the nuclear energy is dissolved in the molten fluoride salt coolant as uranium tetrafluoride (UF4). Solid energy designs rely on ceramic energy dispersed in a graphite matrix, regarding the molten salt providing low stress, high temperature level air conditioning.
The early Aircraft Reactor Experiment (1954) was primarily inspired by the tiny dimension that the design may offer, while the Molten-Salt Reactor Experiment (1965-- 1969) was a prototype for a thorium gas cycle breeder activator nuclear power plant. Amongst the Generation IV reactor styles is a molten-salt-cooled, molten-salt-fuelled activator; the initial recommendation style is 1000 MWe.
