低減させることができる。Figure 4 (a) shows the state around the reactor wall passage during steady operation, and Figure 4 (b) shows the state around the reactor wall flow path immediately after a reactor trip. The temperature in region p is approximately the same (~530°C), and the temperature in region p is slightly higher than the coolant temperature in the low-temperature coolant channel 9 (~380°C). Since the liquid level in this region g rises rapidly during a reactor trip, assuming that there is no baffle plate 19,
In the thickness direction of the upper part of the inner peripheral wall 11A immediately after the reactor trip,
A sudden temperature difference of about 150°C (-530°C - 380°C) occurs, which poses a problem in ensuring the structural integrity of the inner peripheral wall 11A. On the other hand, when one baffle plate is installed, a region k is formed between it and the inner peripheral wall 11A, and in this region,
Since the temperature is normally about 430°C, the temperature difference in the thickness direction of the upper part of the inner circumferential wall 11A during a reactor trip can be reduced to about 50°C.

領域mは約450’Cとなっている。Figure 2 (a) shows the state around the reactor wall cooling channel during steady operation, and Figure 2 (b) shows the state around the reactor wall cooling channel immediately after a reactor trip. °C,
Region m is approximately 450'C.

0℃程度になるものと推定される。Here, since the region n and the region m communicate with each other via the return hole 23, the liquid levels in the circumferential regions n and m are almost the same. Therefore, a gas space 22 is formed in the upper region p of the inner circumferential wall 1'IA, and the temperature of the upper region p is about 50°C to 48°C, which is lower than the second coolant temperature (about 530'C).
It is estimated that the temperature will be around 0°C.

ができる。For this reason, the temperature difference in the thickness direction of the upper region p during a reactor trip is about 70°C to 100°C, which is greater than when the baffle plate 19 is omitted from the conventional fast reactor shown in FIG. A significant temperature difference reduction effect can be obtained. Furthermore, the structure can be made simpler than when the baffle plate 19 is provided.
