Wang Dazhong; Zhong Daxin; Xu Yuanhul (Institute of Nuclear Energy Technology, Tsinghua University, Beijing (China))Abstract
The HTR R & D Project is being carried out in the relevant institutions in China, Some topics are covered such as fuel element technology, graphite development, fuel element handling system, helium technology. Fuel reprocessing technology’ as well as HTR design study. Some results of HTR research work are described. In addition to provide a test facility for investigation of HTR 3odule reactor safety and process heat application of HTR a joint project on building a ZOMW test HTR with Siemens-Interatom. KFA Juelich. and IOMW is going on. The conceptual design of IOMW test HTR has been completed by joint group. In parallel the application study of HTR Module is being carried out for oil industry, petrochemical industry as well as power generation. Some preliminary results of application study for example. for heavy oil recovery on Shengli oil field, process heat application in Yan shan petroleum company are described
