IDEA #0MU3KH Thermal Management System for Microreactor Transport Container. 25A0028

Key Words: thermal management, Microreactor, Transport Container, Loop Heat Pipe This invention describes the design of a thermal management system for use in a transport container to be used to ship a microreactor as illustrated in Fig. 1. Since the microreactor continuously generates heat during the transport, the microreactor vessel’s surface temperature must be kept below 85 oC to prevent damages to the components inside the reactor and ensure safety. Radiation shielding must also be provided for safe transport. The new Thermal Management System proposed can meet these needs and satisfy the thermal limits and radiation shielding requirements.
