Energy Well: Concept of 20 MW Microreactor Cooled by Molten Salts

Abstract

In this paper is described the concept of a 20 MW microreactor cooled by molten salts with the registered trademark of Energy Well. Energy Well reactor is designed to supply either electricity or heat, in remote areas or into populated areas. The description includes context, main design features, safety systems, thermohydraulic analysis in RELAPS 3D, logistic, and transport of the reactor.
