Title:
MICRO NUCLEAR REACTOR
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2022/145633
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a micro nuclear reactor. The micro nuclear reactor according to the present invention comprises: a reactor core charged with nuclear fuel as particles and a moderator; a heat pipe that is inserted into the reactor core and transfers heat from a nuclear reaction to the outside; and a power conversion unit that receives heat transferred from a condensation portion of the heat pipe to convert the heat energy into electric energy.
