Abstract

809,796. Pipe systems. ROLLS-ROYCE Ltd. May 24, 1957 [May 25, 1956], No. 16330/56. Class 99(1). In apparatus comprising components, e.g. a nuclear reactor 10 and a heat-exchanger 12, through which a fluid at high temperature and pressure is circulated and connected by a pair of pipes, the latter are arranged one within the other so that fluid flows in one direction between the components through the inner pipe and in the opposite direction in the space between the pipes. The outer pipe 13 is of thick section to withstand the fluid pressure loads, and the inner pipe 14 is relatively thin and incorporates means capable of accommodating expansion and contraction. As shown, the pipes 13 open into a cooling- water outlet 16 of the reactor and cooling- water inlet chambers 17 of the heat-exchangers whilst the pipes 14 are connected to a cooling- water inlet chamber 18 at the lower end of the reactor core 11 and elbows 19 in the heatexchangers and leading to water-circulating pumps 21. To accommodate both differential thermal expansion between the pipes 13, 14 and the major expansion as between operating and non-operating conditions, sliding expansion joints or flexible bellows are provided between the ends of the pipes 14. Cooling water passes from the chamber 18 to the chamber 16 and through the space between the pipes to the chambers 17, and from the chambers 23 of the heat-exchangers via the pumps 21 back to the chamber 18.
