IWGHTR--6: Process heat applications technology

Specialists' meeting on process heat applications technology. Juelich, Germany, F.R. 27 - 29 Nov 1979

International Atomic Energy Agency, Vienna (Austria). International Working Group on High-Temperature Reactors., IWGHTR--6

Abstract

The purpose of the meeting was to provide a forum for exchange of technical information on heat exchange components for process heat application with High Temperature Reactors in order to provide a comprehensive view of the present status and of directions for future application and development.

The meeting was divided into three sessions:

  1. Design Requirements
  2. Design Construction and Prefabrication Tests for Special Components
  3. Selected Problems
During the meeting papers were presented by the participants on behalf of their countries or organizations.
