Prototype Fast Breeder Reactor (PFBR) is a 500Mwe, Mixed Oxide (MOX) fueled and sodium cooled fast breeder reactor, which is in advanced stage of its commissioning. PFBR employs inclined fuel transfer machine (IFTM) for ex-vessel transfer during reactor fuel handling. Nested ripple type welded disc bellows are used as primary leak tight barrier in the shield plug of IFTM. The welded disc bellows are...
Centrifugal Pumps are used in the primary and secondary heat transport systems of fast reactors for pumping liquid sodium. Lubrication oil leakage from the conventional bearings used in these pumps is a potential threat to cause reactivity changes which could result in extended reactor shut down. Actively controlled magnetic bearings which do not require lubrication is an excellent alternative to...
