Modular High-Temperature Gas-Cooled Reactor with Supercritical Rankine Cycle
Special Features • Steam Generator (SG) for the Live Steam Supplier : The SC steam parameters at SG outlet are 25.4 MPa/571°C. • For the helium side of SG, the inlet temperature is kept at 750°C to maintain 179°C temperature difference between the helium and the SC steam for effective heat transfer. • The outlet helium temperature is designed to 330°C to maintain effective heat transfer between the helium and the feedwater. • Although high steam pressure and temperature involves modifications of the once-through SG and relevant pipes, no additional difficulties in design and manufacture are expected.
Reheat Exchanger for Reheat Steam Supply • The steam parameters at the inlet of the reheat exchanger are 4.38 MPa/311°C and 4.19 MPa/569°C at the outlet. • For the helium side of reheat exchanger, the helium temperature at both inlet and outlet should be 350°C/750°C.

Heater Selection and Final FeedwaterTemperature • In order to maximize the heat rate gain possible with ultra-supercritical steam conditions, the feedwater heater arrangement also needs to be optimized. • In general, the selection of higher steam conditions will result in additional feedwater heaters and a economically optimal higher final feedwater temperature. • In many cases the selection of a heater above the reheat point (HARP) will also be warranted. • The use of a separate desuperheater ahead of the top heater for units with a HARP can result in additional gains in unit performance.
