  • Abstract
    An analysis is made of a thermionic converter network coupled to a nuclear reactor heat source. The network is located out-of-core and the waste heat from the converters is removed by several heat pipes. The optimization, constraints, and advantages of this concept are described in some detail. Results are compared with in-core thermionic converter concept.
