Massoud T. Simnad

Energy, 1991, vol. 16, issue 1, 25-32

Abstract: The original concepts in the proposals for hightemperature helium gas-cooled power reactors by Farrington Daniels, during the decade 1944–1955, are summarized. The early research on the development of the helium gas-cooled power reactors is reviewed, and the operational experiences with the first generation of HTGRs are discussed.
